Canadian 3rd Gen Thread

Ya you don't want to get caught with that in the truck.

 

Same here. No issues at all.

 

So far, so good, with mine as well, just under 25K on it.

 

I have 19K on mine. Ya, sometimes feels a little bogged down at low speed, give it gas and it's just as good as my 2nd Gen. No real complaints.

Interior is night and day, so much better in the 3rd Gen. The options are dramatically better than a Gen 2.

 

Yes, the interior is very nice but it's too "night" in my opinion. Wish would use some two tone or brighter colours in there like the interior of the current Colorado or some of the 2nd gens had. I don't want to feel Goth getting into an all black or dark gray interior. Canada's dark too much of year already.

 

Haven't seen interior of the Colorado, I like the blue on the Tacoma, maybe I should have a look for comparison sake. Think I remember my 2nd Gen being white, but 2 years seems so long ago...memory is lapsing!

 

So you haven't seen the disgusting white/beige headliner versions then? (If we even get them up here...)

 

Case in point, here's the three-tone interior...

I don't mind the white...but that red, black and white

 

I just rolled 44K today (lots of high way driving between Cochrane - Calgary, before that was Cochrane - Edmonton). I found the way to get the best acceleration is to actually give it about 3/4 throttle it actually picks up really fast, especially from a stop. even with out ECT turned on! there is a slight delay but hardly noticable.
The Interior was the biggest decision with going to a 3rd gen, I was looking at a 2nd gen Tacoma TRD sport and 5th gen 4Runner TRD off-road but the black headliner, Dual climate and PTS was the biggest selling point for me.

 

Black headliner is a very nice surprise. That's actually an upgrade feature on car models when you go from base to higher trim levels.

 

I added a Shift Sense Pro and a Sprint Booster to my Tacoma and it made a very noticeable difference in the get up and go, there's a lot of negative talk about what a Sprint Booster actually does, but my Tacoma definitely feels more responsive

 

That is somthing I am considering. I just havent really felt like I truely "needed" it. But im glad you have found it worthwhile so that makes me feel better about considering it haha

would you feel like the shift sense pro is more benifical to the sprint booster? or vice versa

 

I would definitely go with the SSP over the SB, my Tacoma was much more enjoyable to drive with that addition, the addition of the SB just helps with the throttle response, just my 2 cents

 

So is this a unicorn to you guys?

 

Long bed off road? If so that's what I originally wanted but ended up with a trd sport because Canada. Still love it mind you.

 

Yes sir

 

I am selling my Shift Sense Pro locally in the Vancouver area for $120 if anyone is interested. I have the OVTune on it's way which is why I'm selling.
