    One of the features that I often miss about some other vehicles is to continue listening to the radio/Spotify or continue a call when I turn the truck off.

    Well, I accidently discovered how to do this today on my 2023 Taco.

    1. Turn truck off while truck is in gear or Neutral.
    2. Put truck in gear.
    3. Enjoy finishing what your listening to.
    4. Push start button to turn off accessory mode when done.

    This should work:

    Shift to Neutral, shut off the ignition, put it in park, listen to music, and then shut off the ignition again. The same thing goes for Cell Phone calls. :thumbsup:

    Or stall the engine if you have a manual!

    A few, mainly added skids. I like leaving the suspension alone. I drive forest service dirt roafs in the desert west extremely extremely too fast. Toyota nailed this suspension going 65 across desert terrain. Changing it is dumb unless you have a specific need like crawling or mud.
    Huh? We don't have this problem. I can just roll the key back one click. It works just like the g2 or g1

    This problem is unique to the g3 autos

    It’s more of a joke, I would hope people know how to use the key.

    Nice. You totally got me, after reading the post from the guy who owned an access cab for 3 months before TW pointed out the back doors open. Lol

    Time 4 coffee. I fell right into that....

    No need to hit the ignition again unless you want to. It will shut off on it's own in 20 minutes.

    Problem is unique to keyless ignition. No joke.
