    Do all the Tacoma models have the grille shutters?

    His model is to appeal to the mass audience like old legacy media from whence he came. Reading level and attention span of sixth graders. I don't fault that necessarily because the dude has built a successful business. Just not my cup of tea. Full of cringe.

    But, the biggest cringe is whenever they do remotes and product reveals. Andrei can only get two sentences in before Roman completely changes the subject. I get it. Move along. But Andrei was just getting into a interesting path and there goes big R boxing his ears in again. Big R guy doesn't have any real technical knowledge, just knows how to set the hook. Works for a lot of people. Just not me.

    My 2 cents to go a long with the other couple of thousand. Bad choice of tires for snow/ice but the guy wasnt beating on that truck either and what ever happened shouldn’t have even if it was tire choice or user error. They even said they’ve taken 100’s of test vehicles over that same route and no mechanical issues. So with that being said there is a common denominator to the problem and like it or not it’s the 2024 Tacoma which Toyota evidently also has stopped production temporarily for unknown reasons .

    No, I believe the SR5 and lower do not, TRD and up have it. Cant look it up currently but its what I've seen.

    Honestly grill shutters are a good idea. Especially in my neck of the woods, I'd kill for it.

    Mirrors and weight are the next big enemy. Finally got an aluminum body? Full cased frame. lol

    As far as I know yes. But I’ve yet to see a pro the one with the issue is an sr5 (unless it had a TRD package I missed. The new stickers are tiny)

    I’m guessing it was a TRD OR since it had a locking rear diff a long with all the other off road goodies .

    That was some extremely light wheeling, that was either a design error or a manufacturing/QA error on Toyota's part.

    Not by a long shot. Those guys are goobers and don't seem to know what they're doing, but that was extremely mild wheeling.

    That's what I noticed. Switching modes under power. Also tires I mentioned. But I was quickly shot down in favor of Toyota bad quality.

    Toyota engineers soiled their pants when they saw that

    my '15's TC blew up just driving home in 2HI, and I'm easy on it, locked me up in the middle of the road, so nothing shocks me here
