    I know we all love our trucks, else we wouldn't be here, but everybody has those little things that bug the piss out of them about their truck.

    I thought it would be a good idea to make a thread about those annoying little things that might bother you about your truck. Owners that have had the same issues can offer advice on how to fix them.

    Mine are:
    An interior rattle that I cannot find.
    The Taco lean.
    Driver's side leaf spring squeak.
    16mpg.

    I'll play...

    I guess I'd like better MPG (diesel)
    More torque (diesel)
    Less spark plugs (diesel)
    Not having to stop at the filling station twice a week (diesel)
    Not having a turbo (diesel)
    More towing capacity (diesel)

    That about sums it up...oh, the fact that we don't have diesel OEM available.

    Really, I don't have much issue with mine. It pretty much fits my needs though there are a few things I'd like to see made available. Heated leather, heated mirrors, and some safety equipment. Oh & a diesel.

    If you don't like it, let it die. Why bump threads you don't want around?

    I felt I made an honest observation. For some reason these 2nd gen trucks make people want to find small problems in their trucks.

    And I linked a few others for your reading pleasure.

    Some people like to troll the shit out of these threads for fun, as you have noticed.

    This whole site is about 50% good info and 50% utter chaos/trolling...

    Which is why I think this is the best automotive forum on the internet. Education and entertainment.

    Nothing wrong with parents helping their kids out. I would not be where I am today without my parents financial help and I will never take that for granted. My first car was given to me and I drove it for 7 years. When I bought this Tacoma, I returned that car to my parents for my younger sister to drive.

    It would seem this thread has already headed that way.

    I just recently got a 2013 DCSB and noticed that it seems to "lean" on the drivers side. I wasn't certain if this was just my imagination, or was it just the roads all lean to the right, or just my big, fat a**?

    Let me try and steer it back in the right direction:

    When my dad sits in the front passenger seat is makes a squeak, but no one else makes it do that.

    The dash coating is doo-doo.

    That's the only nuances of mine.

    Weight of driver + gas tank, obviously more pronounced with a full-tank and a heavier weight driver.
