2012 TACOMA MEGA-THREAD

A Tron inspired radio....nice

 

Thanks. They come on this truck I've (tentatively) picked out, so looks like I'll be getting them anyway. Oh well, it's only a $60 option. Too bad the nerf bars are a $320 option... Hopefully I can sell those or trade em to someone who wants them.

Looks like I'll hold back a little bit of cash from the sale, so I may pick up some Wet Okoles and weathertech floor liners. I do want some avid step bars too though. Hmmm... So many choices!!!!

 

Ooo the steering wheel controls are lit up? Cool! I'm getting really pumped up

 

My truck showed up at the dealer today! But, since we had a huge October storm here in CT, there's no power in the area and the dealer has been closed all week. I'm hoping power comes back soon so I can pick it up!! It's been a long 5 weeks!

 

That shade of blue looks amazing!

 

Can't wait to see that new blue when i go in for my service next week!

 

I'm sure this has been questioned already but how do I get the perimeter guide lines to show up on the reverse camera? I have the Nav screen but I don't see an option. And I can't get it on the rearview mirror I'm guessing bc the feed goes to the Nav screen.

Also, I'm not seeing anyplace where you can find tire pressure, est. mpg, etc. The manual says the "Car" button but that doesn't apply to the Tacoma system it looks like.

Frustrated.

 

And I can't use the text message function on the screen either.......it's grayed out.

What gives.......

 

That Blue is GORGEOUS!! Now I'm not sure if I should go with MGM, Nautical Blue or Super White!! Ahhh... haggling with a dealer as we speak, so it may come down to whatever is available.

 

Been driving my 2012 DCBS TRD OR in Pyrite Mica for a week. I love it.
If anyone has questions, fire away and I will see what I can do.

 

See my questions above.......thanks

 

I don't have Entune I don't think I can help you out. The guide lines on my backup camera were automatically on. I have not tried to turn them off yet.

 

I am having the same problem regarding the backup camera. When I first test drove the truck, I can remember seeing them. But after they did all their prep work to hand it over, I cant see them anymore.

I have contacted corporate and have been waiting about a week for a response...I will let you know if i find anything out

 

Here's a side view...it's really a nice Blue.

 

It is. And it looks fantastic when clean. Pictures just don't do it justice.

 

So sexy.... but after owning a black car I just don't think I can move to another really really hard to keep looking good color. I'm really leaning towards MGM myself. Though I have to say I think this is my favorite 2012 color.

 

Congrats waiting on MGM after seeing yours I am starting to breath heavier I'm looking at the end of the month.

 

I wanted the alloy wheels that's on your truck my dealer showed me the build schedule if I wanted the short bed I had to eat the chrome clad wheels. My truck was made last week and trust me I argued the point somethings go by region I am in nj so ct would be in the region ? Well anywho I hope you were the one who hit the powerball in connecticut.

 

This one is a 6-speed manual. The Entune and Chrome wheel package is only for the Autos. I ordered it about 5 weeks ago. It was already allocated to another dealer and in the build schedule, so they were able to work with that dealer to swap the allocation.

 

It was you that got that Nautical Blue Sport!!!!!! darn you now I gotta wait for mine to be ordered.

(not really, j/k, but someone did get the truck I want on the west coast and it has been sold aready. Gotta wait my n weeks now, should have a build date around the 7th from my salesman.)

That Taco looks good, even under wraps! Enjoy it when you get it!
