^^ Thread for a *fix* to this problem that I'm currently researching. Thanks to Razgriz1 for the reference

 

That is true. Plus I'm planning a king suspension lift and planning.4.88 gears and seems the ones that do this says.it.fixes.it

 

Or I may go bds 6 in lift. Still debating the two. Like to see a 6 in in person. I drove one with the stage 4.icon which I assume will be same lift height and look as the king. Sure road good.

 

You're not alone. They all do this. You can try the Shift Sense Pro, or OVTune. I can tell you that nothing fixes the erratic highway shifting though, which is sad. The "artificial intelligence" of these Tacomas is about as unintelligent as it gets. OVTune is working on a feature that will all you to essential lock the truck into a gear, which would be amazing. If it could be locked into 5th gear for highway cruising, it would be perfect. 6th is useless. It will be interesting to see how soon these transmissions start slipping due to the excessive amount of shifting that happens with them.

 

lets see some 2018 pics. I've seen some off roads on other threads and they look good. Anyone bought a sport yet?

 

yeah but you cant get a pro in manual trans or access cab, so pass..

 

Wash time last night.

 

I’m pretty sure you can get a Pro in manual transmission

 

I like the red is better than blue.

 

Done any offroad with that antenna mount yet? the mount just looks a little vulnerable, but curious to hear you experience.

 

Really hope it works out. I have been frustrated with all the shifting, even on flat ground. Can only imagine what it will be like with lift and larger tires.

 

Agreed. I have the Shift Sense and it doesnt do much for the highway shifting. Can only imagine how bad it would be if I still lived in Colorado.

 

Yeah I went with red

 

nope, i just checked on the toyota website.. only double cab & auto for pro.. but you can get trd sport access manual in cement now, maybe when my current lease is up ill grab one of those if they are still making them

 

You mean for 2018? I don't see why they'd quit offering the pro in manual from 2017 to 2018.

 

I'm not sure if the USA build and price is the same as Canada, but here it's basically searching in your area for what's available. This is why people in different regions can/can't build a truck a certain way

 

You must really hate your cement gray paint if you take it through a car wash like that. Those types of car washes wreck paint.

 

I really like cement. Glad I waited on the color I wanted. I also really like the 4runner pro wheels. They look so much more aggressive than the stock ones.
