    Hi All, Just read an article on 2018 Jeeps with additional vents in the fenders,

    ; http://www.foxnews.com/auto/2017/12/20/heres-why-2018-jeep-wrangler-has-holes-in-its-fenders.html

    In summary its been a known issue that at higher speeds the air forced into the engine bay through the grill causes a pressure buildup under the Jeep engine hood. This causes the hood to lift and vibrate.

    Just a thought that Tacoma owners with front in vibs at faster speeds my be causing a shimmy in the hood. I'd check the hood fit and spacing blocks on the hood front etc. Just in case if you have any issues with this .....
