    Okay I don’t know anything about cars/trucks and my 2015 Tacoma is my first truck. I was just looking under the hood to check my oil and I saw this hose that wasn’t connected to anything. Does anyone have an idea what it is? It’s located coming out of the passenger side. Thanks

    I suggest you extend that hose to a point lower than the frame. It drips right into the frame which of course is not good for these things.

    Mostly stock with a few minor mods.
    You will often find a wet spot on the concrete under by that wheel when you park. The water is coming out of that hose.

    And, yes, you should extend it below the frame so it isn't constantly dumping on the frame and causing rust there. Do a search for AC Drain Mod.

    I agree. If condensate water is going to rot a frame then we are all screwed when it rains. :eek:

    Here's your proof, ac drain caused this. Pic and account given by my buddy's co-worker's cousin sister's father-in-law's barber during a hair cutting conversation 10 yr's ago. :anonymous::
