    So ima newb! Had the dealership throw on a 3inch suspenesion lift and some Fuel Mavs! Probably got royally screwed but hey I saw em and fell in the trap! Gota a newb question that im pretty sure has been talked about and thats the TSS system on a lifted Taco... Namely the PCS that warns you before rear ending someone... Mines works randomly... Is there any fix for this or should I just treat as any other truck that has survived for a century without it?

    Work randomly? Are you sure it’s the PCS not the lane departure?

    Oh im sure its not the lane departure because that thing works too well! I’ve only had that PCS tell me to brake 3 times and only 1 time made sense... Plus ive had a few instances that should definitely have been a break warning... Im wondering if it needs a slight adjustment...

    Hmmmm... curious as to what the dealership put on. Suspension won’t throw off the PCS like that. It’ll actually be the opposite to where it won’t warn people since the ride height is and radar angled up

    Whats weird too is that the radar cruise control seems to work great... Which would mean that the radar portion is operative at least for the active cruise control... idk

    I really like your setup. What brand of lift and wheel/tire sizes did the dealer do on your truck?
