Tired of Tacoma problems

I envy you my friend, I've seen a few pilotless aircraft in my travels, very cool.

 

Burnt out DRL bulb and a cracked windshield due to some punk with a BB gun.... only major issues with my 2013. Minor vibes at 5mph, no big deal. Has been great with 82K+ miles but then again I do all of the maintenance myself

 

I've had zero issues outside of trial and error, and zero regrets! Will never own another truck, yota life

 

Squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak squeak ....... other than that no problems

 

I had my rear main seal go at 30k miles. And the stock leaf springs are a joke. But other than that everything else has been self-inflicted.

 

I've had to wash mine every 2 weeks!!
What a pain in the butt!

I can't believe that it didn't come with an invisible force field to prevent this issue!

 

Not a chance. I have a 2013.

 

So far, no. Love the truck. Wanted a Tacoma since I was young and glad to finally get one. Hopefully mine holds up and I will be a lifetime owner of Toyota trucks.

 

2005 w 170,000 miles. Zero issues. Nvm I had a ripped cv boot but I off-road....

 

tfw got 99 problems but your Tacoma ain't one

 

Major water leak when new INSIDE the cab.

Factory left a seal off at the rear of the cab.

Dealer replaced carpets under warranty but the seat runners require sanding (due to rust) and repainting on a yearly basis.

Toyota has refused to cover those. They claim that it is normal for a truck to rust on the INSIDE.

Clutch slave went just after warranty period.

Steering issue with some part, I forget what it was called and can't be bothered to look up the bill, that was $400.

Calipers stuck just after warranty. When the truck started to pull when you hit the breaks it was already too late.

So overall, yes I regret getting this truck even though I got it almost free due to the frame going on my 2000.

 

I sure do regret it... I have to rub lotion on my crank basically all day from the amount of hot ass I smash just because I drive a Tacoma.

 

My dad flew a B-25 in the movie Catch-22, he had an opportunity to buy the aircraft after shooting wrapped, he didn't - if I ever get my hands on a time machine, that's gonna be one of the first stops.

No regrets, I knew the few minor 'issues' with the Tacoma going in, mainly the rear springs, which I'll soon be swapping for the Dakars. I knew the mileage wasn't fantastic, but I can read, I saw those numbers before I signed on the dotted line.

Winner!

 

What problems?

 

You too huh...

 

I have fleet of Tacoma, rock solid with no issues

 

2012 with 61000 km (38000 miles)

1. Windshield squeal noise
2. Heated leather seats, the heat control for the drivers side seat has a mind of its own
3. Dreaded p2442 code - valve replacement
4. Serpentine belt needed replaced

Dealer manintained since new.

I know other trucks have as many or more issues but I was expecting more from the Tacoma with this type of low mileage.

 

Yes. I do. What did OP end up doing? I know this post is years ago but I just posted a similar thread https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/should-i-keep-my-2005-tacoma.677489/
