That engine bay looks so clean!

How do you like it so far?

nice. these 4g tacomas are pretty nice, hopefully they have the longevity built into them too

I was shocked when I read about the issues with the V6 drivetrain at launch, I was like no no that's impossible it's a Toyota. But hey, 4banger manuals ftw. :lawl:

I bet it will treat you well.

I start to notice more and more new models on the road here in town, they do look much nicer than previous model IMO.

hard to resist, isn't it? :lawl:

it doesn't help that we're car guys either :run:

one thing i don't like is the driver assist stuff. i know the system is marketed as safety, but i don't need any of that stuff, my eyes work just fine. stop nudging and vibrating the steering wheel :run:

Yes indeed, doesn't help that I know I need a truck and I've looked twice for one but I can't just switch, I still need a fast car lol

Oh yeah, I have mine turned off on Audi, but still, if you even keep head straight but eyes elsewhere even slightly and the car in front is braking and you are not, it will warn you, which is ok.
The one thing I hate is if you are turning left, and have a turn signal and want to quickly turn in between cars, it will 100% apply brakes and stop you, which is a big no no and might cause accident like that. One way to fix it is not to use left turn signal in those situations :hidesbehindsofa:
