    Ive noticed with my 2017 SR5 DCSB with 22k miles that the drone/note of the stock exhaust seems to create a drone during acceleration, much more noticeably so than with prior vehicles Ive owned. The drone/vibration seems to occur in each gear around the same RPM range as the truck is accelerating. It makes itself extra obvious by creating a particular vibration in the radio/climate control area as the truck goes through the gears.

    I am somewhat confident that its going to be a common thing with these trucks, but wanted to make sure. Ive toyed with the idea of maybe a TRD exhaust, as maybe a slight note change could make it less noticeable for me. I don't want to increase any loudness however, so that makes me hesitant to do a "performance" exhaust.

    Anyone have this same thought?

    I don't drive it enough to know. But if I drove a lot it would annoy me from what youre saying about it
