    Wow, that sucks! All for a 2010. I beat the crap out of my truck almost every weekend and I haven't had a problem in 4 years with it.

    Dang man, sounds like you got a bad apple. I'd trade in for something else while it still has decent resale value. No sense being unhappy with it for xxx years.

    Were you wheeling when you grenaded your diff? That's great if Toyota replaced it under warranty if so.

    kinda. it was winter and I was on a paved access road to a communication tower on a mountain that had 2 feet of snow on it. I was towing my roommates on their snowboards downhill on the road into a jump they made and when I went to back up the hill one time it went BOOM. Limped it off the mountain via the 4wd and then had a tow truck take it to the dealer where they pulled the 3rd and 1/3 of the ring gear was ripped off. looked like a bubble in the casting process caused a fracture leading to the failure so the regional rep said to replace the whole 3rd member for me(at 42k miles).
