    Hey all. So I'm gonna get a 2018 SR5 DCSB. I had a 2005 and missed it ever since. I need a truck and might as well spend 32k on a new one than spend 28k on a good used one. My question is, I drive our old RAV4 to work and might as well drive it until it dies since it's only worth about 3k. Will plan to drive my new taco once or twice a week. My question is, what should I do to keep the gas in it fresh? I'm a big SeaFoam guy for my small engines, but not sure about dumping some in a truck tank.

    Thoughts? Recommendations?

    Driving once or twice a week should be fine without the need for any additives, you could use Sta-Bil fuel stabilizer if you are worried about it though.

    I have a 2017 that I bought brand new and only has 8K miles on it. I work from home so rarely drive. Never needed anything in the gas and I drive it once a week MAYBE, but more like twice a month and its been just fine.

    Ok, sounds like it won't be a problem then. Thanks all.
