Throttle Response is poor.

This is the fake news troll internet era my friend. People need to establish credibility with communities if they want to be treated as part of it, and setting up an account with bogus names is not the way to do it.

 

It will get better , had the same feeling. 1 month and 3000 miles later it’s lot better

Throttle by wire has been around in the Tacoma since 03, my 04 is throttle by wire.

 

No affect on me personally, and I don't mean to start anything by my comment.

I'm just pointing out that, especially in this particular forum which gets a lot of trash, a new member who comes in with a post that reiterates common negativity, without any other introduction to the community, and with a seemingly bogus username and name, should naturally be met with some skepticism.

 

Yep, not a fan.

 

Solid

 

Hahahaha yesss.


Now I wish my name was more obscene.

Welcome @Sumdood . Give it time. I drive some of the biggest cities in the North East without issue of merging or keeping up.

 

Y'all are da real MVPs

 

Turn off traction control by pressing and holding the button for 3 seconds, that turns off the nannies and gives you better response time. Annoying, but I just can't drive smoothly with the nannies on in both my MT Taco and my wifes 2016 4runner so I've made it a habit after starting the truck.

 

The whole "turn off traction control" fad that's going around is just dangerous. If you get in rain or any adverse conditions you're risking an accident for slightly different throttle mapping.

OP, if you're a real person and end up reading this thread, you should check out OVTune. It's the only thing out right now that actually changes the throttle response in the truck. There are several threads including reviews from people using it if you search for it.

A few:

Anybody remember @0210?

 

Meh. First vehicle with traction control, managed without it in many vehicles.

 

What’s a Tacoma XP?

 

Southeast Toyota Distributor added package. Usually wheels, grille, badging, etc.

 

You do realize that these threads have an irresistible aura Ouija board kind of vibe that, before you know it, caused words to flow from fingertips without concious thought. Most don't even know or remember they responded. Bad juju these threads. Makes good people go bad...
