    Ickes up my 2023 sr5 v6 2 weeks ago. At 338 miles the power steering stopped working. Dealer determined it was a bad power steering pump from the factory. They replaced it and it’s all good now. Plan to keep this truck forever . Don’t want any turbo 4cyl

    Can anyone answer this question for me? Is it okay to drive highway speeds from Carson city nv to Reno nv (about 30 miles) with only 60 miles on the odometer? I’ve read some stuff on here about not driving consistent speed so it can break in properly? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

    I found side steps very helpful after doing my 1.5"/1.5" lift along with 265/70r17's. The Predator steps are the most useful but I didn't like how low they hang down. Check out the N-Fab steps or the "W drop" steps offered by Southeaster Toyota. I went with the W Drop, I like them pretty well and they are a good compromise height.. They are Aluminum too. IMO, the higher the step is the more awkward it is for adults to get into truck due to low cab height.

    Looks good. Like the strip at the top of the windshield. I need to get this done on my truck as well.

    So quick question. Precovid it was easy to find tacos. Now not so much. I had to leave a deposit for a 23’ pro. How long did it take for being built to delivery?

    Love it but the rear diff howls around 50-60mph gonna bring it to the dealer on Tuesday. I love Toyota but this trucks a bit of a letdown right off the bat

    Others have complained about the howl as well. Is there a fix for it ? Someone mentioned 2023 model year has thicker glass to quiet down the cabin.

    Mine is horribly annoying and totally unacceptable I’m bringing it to the dealership they should replace the rear diff. Probably a diff that wasn’t assembled correctly. S
