Any truth to this article?

FJ cruisers have had this problem noted....

.....and Jeep wranglers have also had these issues.

.....as have the first and second gen Tacomas and the older Toyota pick ups.

...the car engine angle is fake news.

 

Right. It’s a Toyota engine, put in a Lexus, the re configured and put into a Toyota truck. Toyota stuff in Toyota stuff. Just being clear here.

 

If I lived in the desert again, no sweat.

 

Agreed on fake news. Parrots gonna parrot.


Just like how snorkels were loved. Then snorkels were hated. Then they were stated as only being for dust... as if snorkels never aided in keeping the intake point higher. Fuckin parrots man.

 

Oil starvation can happen in any engine, that's a given. That the 3.5 is disaster in a truck, at least with the present transmission and programing.

 

Typical new age hipster dweeb tard. Does anyone out side a military spec vehicle release a safe fording depth? There's too many variables in fording a vehicle and the biggest one is speed.

I kind of pretty much stopped reading after I quit my job. After Toyota denied his claim he should have filed a claim with his insurance/

 

2.7 baby yeah

 

Profile him!

 

I have never understood the difference myself. The Chev cars and trucks with the 305 and 350, and the Fords with the 302.....are they car engines in trucks or truck engines in cars?

This forum is full of idiotic tropes, but the number one “full retard” thing repeated, ad nausea, is the idea that “car engines” and “truck engines” are a thing.

 

As opposed to pretty much every small block v8 that are in domestic trucks?

 

Most popular mid size truck on the market, 4 (?) years running.....and every last one a total disaster.

Whatever buddy.....people just ain’t that stupid. You miss your Tacoma, I get it. The subliminal regret will burn you up until you jump back in. We look forward to your return.

 

I’m having some very strong feelings towards you....

....please tell me you’re a hot 20-something year old Asian chick who’s into older men.

 

Beat me to it.
Same thing with Dodge. My 1970 Dart had pretty much the same long block as the V8’s that they had in the first gen Durangos/Rams/Dakotas etc

 

Yes tell him that lol

 

Butt out, Aaron!

 

Now we’re talking. #DO4H

 

Mods, please change Stun Gun’s user name to “Senor Cock Blocker”.

Thanks in advance.

 

Is it okay if I smoke?

 

Yes.

And move your left arm down about 9” please.....

 

Am I the only one worried we are only seeing from the waist up??
Would hate to see a truck engine on a car
