    Hi everyone, my name is Chris, AKA Kilroy, 34, living in MI. I recently was gifted a Super White II 2016 Tacoma SR5 from my Aunt, who inherited the truck from her brother, my uncle, when he passed away in May 2021. She had no need for a second vehicle, and I had been wanting a Tacoma for years, so she gave it to me after going through the probate court. Since my uncle lived in Texas, the truck is only 2WD. He kept the Tacoma very clean, but I don't like that he used quick lube style stations for oil changes. Surprisingly, there is very little rust on the vehicle considereing that he lived on Galveston Island.
    I will be doing most, if not all of the maintenance/work myself, so if anyone has access to the Toyota Service Manual for a 2016 Tacoma, that would be greatly appreciated. I tried to locate the one that was in a thread here on TW, but it had been removed or unavailable.
    Thank you, and I look forward to being a part of the community!

    You can find PDF versions online as well. Welcome to TW from a fellow Michigander.

    Also, yes, even on islands vehicles can be in great shape. Currently on vacation in Maui and there are vehicles here from the 80's and 90's that are in immaculate condition! There's the occasional sun damaged vehicle, which is to be expected, but almost no rust on any of these vehicles over here! If you get to 10 years without body rust in Michigan you're pretty much working miracles unless it is stored in the winter.

    Edit: here's a link to the manual as well as a few other resources: https://www.toyota.com/owners/resources/warranty-owners-manuals.tacoma.2016
