    My OCD is so bad that I’m not going to check/compare the truck’s display MPH to GPS MPH...

    Bad thing is that the 36,000 mile warranty is expiring 4% early also just like the speed is 4% faster.
    Wonder if they figured that into the equation of profit. :thumbsup:

    I bought a new KTM motorcycle in 2016 and compared to my GPS, the speedo was way off IMO. I did some research and apparently federal laws allow them to be off by up to 9% before needing to be corrected (it was 2 years ago and I remember it was a crazy amount. I’m pretty sure it was 9% anyway)
    I ended up buying a set of aftermarket ABS reluctor rings of a different size to correct the speedo. I believe there’s a ‘speedo corrector’ you can buy if Toyota can’t/won’t fix it for you.
