    just purchased brand new TRD Off Road 6sp m/t. 345 mi after delivery from NH to VT. I’ve put about 122 on myself. Not sure if this is a break in thing or what...noticed sputtering hesitating at 2400rpm while at 55-60mph in 5th gear as well as at 65 mpg in 6th at slightest of inclines. Oh yeah...And it’s a fricking padoodle already! Driver side low beam. Out. My 07 same model had the classics Tacoma headlight issue. Did they not correct this 11 years later? Any thoughts?

    That weird stutter hesitation is unfortunately normal, you may have better luck trying the OV Tune.

    Normal? Then that’s a new feature my 07 didn’t have. Hmm. How can it be normal? What’s the OV Tune?

    I was wondering the same thing. I have narrowed it down to a weird dog breed, or Midwest slang for not being up to par.

    I've heard someone use the term badiddle, maybe misheard them or they got it wrong.

    Either way that wasn't on my radar.

    Padoodle. From SE Pennsylvania. At any rate...yeah I didn’t figure the choking going up hill was normal. I’m not happy right now.

    I know I said Midwest but I could picture Peggy Hill calling someone a padoodle.
