    It drives me fucking crazy. Sounds like shit and leaves me dissapointed that Toyota tells me just wait for the engineer to diagnose when he gets the time. Fix my shit!

    4K miles no problem other than the crummy Nav system, but that's a problem with most Nav systems compared to a garmin gps,,,,,,?

    Has anyone noticed the front window looks wavy when looking at the curved sides?

    Each "Source" saves it's own Audio set up. So if you were on FM and set up audio to be say +3 treble and + 3 bass, that setting would not be set to XM , AM radio , blue tooth source, etc.
    You would have to set up audio settings on each Source while you listening to it.

    That is right. I'm saying I'll be glad when XM turns off there pay radio. I'm not paying for it and they bug the shat out of a person the closer the turn off date comes.

    So, does Un subscribe work to stop their emails? I think I have Un subscribed once and still get their emails?

    Thank goodness I have never opened an account with them. Been about a week since there barrage of letters in the mail, the 9th (next Tuesday) is the last day of free subscription. Would not surprise me if they don't make one final push. I don't know though, I got a pink final notice envelope last week. Time will tell.

    You can add there email to your blocked email in whatever mail server you use and that will stop them.

    Just got mine 5 days ago, it now has 75 miles on it. At 60 miles I brought back to dealer to check the ATF fluid because forums got me crazy paranoid about low ATF. Sure enough, after a 4 hour wait for the transmission to cool down to the proper temperature in order to check the fluid level, they concluded that the tranny had 1 quart less fluid than it should. They topped it off and sent me on my way. Other than that, no issues. I have a TRD-OR 4x4 with Tow Package by the way.

    My only complaint so far is the tire road noise from the rear.

    Just got my truck back from the dealer last night, took it in due to lurching in F and R when cold. Unfortunately, the mechanic just took it out and drove it rather than just maneuvering it around so they couldn't duplicate the issue but they did find the tranny oil was a quart low. Not sure yet if that helped with the lurching issue.
    Not too happy with the performance of the tranny with the constant upshifting. The dealer told me to be patient that Toyota is working on fixing the issue. In the meantime I just manually shift it and it works great.
    Otherwise, 1500 miles no other issues and I love the truck. I will say that I thought my 08 performed better.

    8 months into ownership and 17k miles driven, technicians finally agree with me that truck needs new differential. Brought the truck in for warranty repair on the diff, they called and forgot to order the gasket. Next day they called having got the gasket but forgot to order some other component...which happened to be a week out. Picked up my clunker (that's what I'm calling the 2016) drove it to another dealership and trader that turd in for a new ecoboost. 700 miles in and I'm getting 22 mpg in my new full size, better, I might add than the turd. Toyota, pull it together!

    Dealer said hood vibration 'normal' . I'm conflicted on this one. I'm pretty sure I can do a better job on a fix than they would.

    Also tried to tell me transmission issues 'normal' and could not find a TSB addressing it. Showed them the bulletin and it's back in getting that done.
