    First time Tacoma owner. Took it straight from the lot to the mud. Front axle is grinding and it's stuck. IMG_20180414_195155.jpg

    Kansas City, Go Royals! I am just guessing you were trying to use the 4L?

    Had it in 4H and it was grinding. Then tried switching to 4L when I got stuck. Nothing.

    Definitely let's you know what needs to happen to the truck right off the bat! Needs tires/mild lift and a bumper or tow points of some sort on the front.

    If it started in 4H then something is broken, I would think. Hopefully they get Ya back in the mud puddles soon. At least you found the problem before you were loaded up headed to the trails for the weekend. Maybe they will let you pick a new one out?
