    When I first got my Tacoma I was really unimpressed by the overall performance. Hunting gears, low power, etc. I would use the term "struggling" here in the mountains. At 10k on the odometer it is preforming like a totally different truck.

    I never really noticed a change in the way my truck drives.

    I am at 19K still waiting....

    Though I only got the most recent TSB in January so maybe I need to give it more time.

    Same here. People just get used to the way it drives. You start to realized in order to get this truck to move you need to be heavier on the gas. The pedal response in these trucks sucks. You go about a 1/5 of the way before it really give the truck any response at all
