    All these posts and no one has asked why they have not changed the grill in the 2017s?

    Yeah I got banned for no apparent reason either. I sometimes say things that Toyota fanboys don't like but I stop short of calling names. At any rate, glad I held out for a 2017. A big chunk of my down payment was used to buy a brand new furnace. Excited to test out a DCLB with the big gears =(

    So, question though, will there be another software version for the 2017 auto apart from the recent 2016 TSB that is calibrated for the the 4.3 gears?

    Alright let's get back on topic. How are we going to tell the weak ass 3.90 geared 2016's from the new almighty, bullet proof, 4.31's?

    You have a duty to repo that 17 and do a video report for us! Tell the dealer you wanna show it to a buyer. Get it on a hoist!

    Wow. Things just got interesting. Need to buy stock in an organic popcorn company. This forum is really going to go nuts the next three to six months as the 2017's prove to be defect free, and the 2016 beta test concludes.
