    This thread has been very useful. Who the hell knew gas weighed less than water? Well, that one guy did then everyone else looked it up and acted like they knew.

    Low beam led lights. After I installed the new led it doesn't come on. It has auto highbeam.
    I was told that I should drive my Taco until its 1/4 tank empty and than add new gas to the tank. Like I said I'm not a gearhead. I just like to drive my vehicle with no problems.

    Less weight means the truck will sit .000234” higher creating more drag thus killing your mpgz

    Did u know filling your bicycle frame with rocks increases the weight which means you will gain more momentum going down hills and can coast further thus exerting less energy?

    Man I hope not. That guy sucked. Shouldn’t he be complaining in a Tundra forum anyway?
