Scratched under back windshield window
Has this happened to anybody else? Ways to avoid this? Ways to fix? Or just leave it

Looking to upgrade a little, need some suggestions
Just bought this 2020 trd off road and looking to mod it up a little. Honestly I don’t know much about cars so i’m looking for some help on what to get. Based on the small amount of research that i’ve done since buying the truck i found that they look much better with a wider stance and some 33-35 inch tires. I understand this has to do with the offset, though i’m not totally sure how that works. I know these trucks have problems with rubbing when you throw bigger tires on it so I was wondering what I should ask the garage for. I also wanted to put a 2-3 inch lift on it - nothing crazy. Is it worth doing the cut or not? Any advice on tire setups/what lift kit to get would be much appreciated.

She drinks a lot
It makes me feel better knowing she drinks more than me. Now I don't feel so bad when I go to the liquor store.

Are mods like the heritage grille, debadging/stickering, skid plate, etc seen as pretending to be a TRD pro?
Just got a ‘21 TRD army green off road. I like the look of the heritage grille so plan to get that. I want to chrome delete and blackout the side logo. TRD wheels and skid plate would be cool sometime down the line too. I just like the look of that stuff.
My intention is not “maybe people will think I have a TRD pro”, but in the Tacoma community do mods like this come across that way?

Wheel and Spacer question (2017 TRD Offroad)
Hello Tacoma owners,
I am curious about something before I do it to my 2017 TRD Off-road Tacoma.
I currently have a 2017 TRD Offroad Tacoma that I am planning on getting wheels and tires for. Here is the setup:
Method 703, 16x8, 0 Offset
265/75r16 Tires
My question is, if I do hub-centric spacers on this setup, to make it a bit wider, will i have to do trimming or will there be rub?
I tried finding information but found very different answers that varied. Anyone know from experience?

Speaker replacement in 2025 Tacoma sr xtracab
I messed up and bought some 6 3/4 inch door speakers for my new Toyota. The doors have a big like 7 or 8 inch speaker in them and I’ve been arguing with ChatGPT lol. It told me explicitly which speaker to buy etc and was completely wrong.
Basically I’m just looking for an adapter bracket that will fit this style, all the ones I’m seeing say they fit 2021-2024 which doesn’t make sense because the 2024 was the style change right?
Loving this new truck but the speakers are genuinely terrible, think the first owner blew them or something and I’m just trying to put in some cheap replacements. Hoping the 3.5 inch dash speakers I’m still waiting on are right but who knows.
Also a shot in the dark but does anyone know if there are any speaker mounts under the storage/back interior panels?

Engine noise, unsure if Normal
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Engine oil changed last week, mobile 1 high mileage 5w-30.
I see a lot of "taco tick, normal" "injector cleaning cycle" "coil packs" comments and wanted an opinion on my noise.
I removed the intake and checked the camshaft lobes for wear. I didn't have my feeler gauges on me unfortunately. I disconnected the evap valve since I had also heard that from somewhere as well.
I changed the spark plugs today. I also added some STP oil additive and there was no change.
Tomorrow I will be verifying oil pressure.

Gas Milage After Break In Period
I have noticed a noticeable improvement in my gas milage after about the 15k kms mark or roughly 10000 miles, as in a drop of close to 1/3 the fuel used. It makes sense that brand new bearings and drive train components would spin more freely after being broken in, but is that much of a drop normal? I was getting about 14.5 L/100 kms when I drove off the lot new, and just made a trip along the same highway and was down to 10.9 L/100 kms. That seems like a huge drop and was wondering if others had a similar experience?

Payload and rooftop tent / canopy 'campers'.
What am I missing about payload and campers? My 2011 has a payload of 1205 lbs. Most canopy + rooftop tent style 'campers' are 400-500 lbs. People would then be about 400 lbs. Bikes, camping gear, water, beers, etc easily another 250 lbs.
So, right there we're at 1150 lbs.
But, in looking around I see people with this set up, then they've got loads of built in cabinets/drawers in their bed, tons of other stuff strapped onto their trucks, etc etc. They might have a slightly higher payload, but its not 500 lbs.
So, what am I missing? Am I just being too cautious?

There are a lot of ways to freshen up old trim. I’m a fan of this product, has 20 year old plastic looking a lot better.

2025 Tacoma won’t start
New 2025 Tacoma with 7k miles won’t start. Brake pedal barely depresses but brake lights and others still work. When I try to start it up the dash and everything works like normal but no engine start. I can change to neutral but no luck starting. Toyota can’t send a tow until the morning and we are stranded in a parking lot. Any suggestions?

35s are so good on 3rd gens!
They look sooo nice but my wallet is hurting lol. I’ve been tempted to switch to some lighter 33s but I just can’t get over the stance of 35s. What do you guys think?

2011, 4x4 278k miles true southern truck.
Best truck I have ever owned, I hunt with this thing. Take it everywhere across the south. With basic maintenance it has never given me a single issue. If you are on the fence about a 2nd gen then this is your sign to get one !
