    Glad to be here. Just bought a 2018 Tacoma knowing about all these issues. Owned since June 15th. Despite some of the same short comings some of us are experiencing, myself included. LOVE MY TACO!

    Hey guys! So sorry about the late reply as Im getting used to this whole "forum" thingy. Trying to upload some truck pics as we speak and it just keeps loading! AAAAAHhhhhhhhhhhhh! :annoyed:

    An update for you folks asking or wondering if some of the issues these 3rd gens have been having are resolved.

    I now have exactly 3063 miles on my new 2018 "Gloria" was born 5/18 in Baja, Mexico. I had the hard start issues which slowly faded and stopped with the hard crank noise at around 1000k. The trans has noticeably stopped acting as "twitchy" and all over the place and when it was new. Maybe the trans is responding to the way I drive after all...hmm? :fingerscrossed:

    Did the AC TSB mod, stupid small hose outlet leaking on my damn frame. I live in Arizona and was already getting rust on the frame due to the this issue, so I highly recommend it!

    I bought Ultra Phantom 225SB 16x8 +10 offset 4.89" bs wheels and they will be mounted next week! Awesome pics to follow!

    Dude! I really appreciate all the hello's and cant wait to get more accustomed tho this and get my profile and some good pics up!

    A couple questions if I may....

    So I hear different things from every toyota dealership I call. I have an SR and am not a "electrical guy" but I can see the plug in for Fog lights near the drivers side headlight? The SR model does have this plug in right? My OEM after market fog lights from CJ offroad should just be plug and play right? Any help would be great as I'd like to install myself to save the astronomical price of $125 an hour here in Gilbert,AZ!:spending:

    Also anyone have any recommendations for a reputable 4x4 shop in Arizona to install my ARB rear 8" locker and compressor? Why are so many guys here in AZ afraid to install an ARB locker in a gen3 tacoma? Im having a difficult time finding someone who sounds confident to tackle the job and get her done right! Any help with this would be AWESOME! The only place I found so far here in AZ is Arizona Differentials who came recommended by several guys, but dont know them personally or know if they are just telling me the best place.

    Ok...so gonna keep trying to upload a new avatar and some pics as my stupid thing has been loading for over 30 minutes! Stupid:mad:

    Thanks for all your welcomes! i think I m gonna like this forum! BAM!
