What I found about the transmission echoes the review here. After picking up speed on highway, it drives itself. Almost a bit scary, the trucks just pulls you forward without any gas

A lot of discussion is more on the longevity of the truck. One thing also, you gripe about having narrower mud flaps that is causing rock chips by the bed, but you put on wider tires. That does not make sense.

After almost 2 years of owning the 2022 platinum I have a cracked and broken seat side panel, just today the gas level started doing what you described, and I also notice the thigh support will no longer work. I can hear what sounds like the motor initiating but then nothing happens. It's starting to feel like I purchased a lemon and I am very disappointed at the dealerships lack of caring because they're tired of people reporting the same problems over and over.

I went from a yz250f to yz450fx for the woods, and holy shit it has power, the best thing I ever did was buy a throttle tamer, it completely changed the bike, it is like a 250 the first half of the throttle then 450 the last half. I prefer the 450 now because I can lug the hell out of it and it still pulls my 220lbs. The throttle tamer took the jerkyness off the bottem and made throttle control much easier. Best 70 bucks I ever spent. The only other thing I did was add the fan, but I must be clear, do not start out on a 450, they will hurt you fast.

The noise you hear with the rear seat folded is the cab vent. It’s just a light rubber flap that keeps dust from getting in the cab. It allows the doors to shut by allowing air to escape. Insulation won’t prevent this. Maybe a blanket over it would help cut some noise and allow enough air to escape but you’ll have to remove whatever is mounted in front of it. The bed rail might be a bad design of the part itself or the mold in the factory or the process of the injection itself.

@@Rodneysnwridesandreviews you need 2’ of 1/2”&5/8” heater hose. Cut to length to fit on each side of the washer nozzles, then slit the pieces to go over the lip on the cowl and stack the 5/8 over the 1/2. I then put some camper weather striping on the underside of the hood above the heater hose just to insure the paint wouldn’t get rubbed off. This gave the hood in front of the windshield some support. That took care of 75% of it, I then cut some foam pipe insulation in half and put that in between the 2 layers of the hood at the edges of the hood scoop to support that to get rid of 20% more. Total cost to lessen the very annoying hood flex about $15 that Toyota either didn’t catch on testing or just didn’t care enough to correct.

I would suggest that you try to find a wider mud guard and if they might look bad then get a set of side steps that would be wide enough to catch those rocks. I am waiting for my 2024 Tacoma in Blue Crush Metallic that has the Premium Package. It’s been in production for several weeks now. I appreciate your video that shows the rock chip problem. I’m going the side step solution to the rock chips because I like the way a truck looks with them on. Also I am getting this truck from a dealer in Montana. I got tired of waiting for a truck in my color or the red color like yours, from my dealer in South Dakota. I just lucked out getting the Premium Package. I guess I called the Montana dealer at just the right time.

I really like the leveling lift on the front end. The only negative I can see with lifting the front is that your view over the hood when off-roading and parking the vehicle, is more difficult.

The leveling kit was a big improvement on the looks, and yes it does take away from the visibility, but not as much as you may think. I had a 2022 Tundra, and when I put the leveling kit on it, it was night and day difference in the visibility over the hood. In didn’t affect the Tacoma near as much as it did the Tundra, so I was thankful for that.
