    I bought my 2015 Tacoma on 2/14/2015. When I got it, the dealer went ahead and set up my first scheduled maintenance appointment for tomorrow 5/16.

    Just checked the odometer and I'm only at 3k miles.

    Should I go ahead and take it in?

    Or wait till I'm closer to 5k?

    What do yall think?

    They may tell you to come back at 5K. Call them.

    Hey it can't hurt to do it a little early, its brand new! However I typically just wait until the odometer lets me know, which is usually every 5,000 miles. Just give them a call and they'll let you know.

    I called them a few minutes ago... They said as long as it's before 5k or 4 1/2 months, I'm fine.

    I rescheduled for June... Owner's manual says every 5k. No use in burning through my ToyoCare early!
