    some of this, a little of that
    squeaking throw out bearing, frame rust and MPG seem to be the holy trinity of Tacoma problems.

    have a light foot and don't increase your tire size if you wanna keep decent mileage. I have done as good as 23 mpg and as bad as 12 mpg over a full tank. It really just depends on how your driving it.

    (1) the backup camera is in the mirror and not in the radio. You can't see crap in the mirror for backing up. I converted mine to display in the radio, costs about $70 to do it.
    (2) fuel mileage isn't as good as it was in my 2006 V6

    All things considered, a great truck... enjoy!
