I just purchased a brand new Tacoma to replace my 2009 model (210,000 miles)!
This is only my second new car purchase, last one being a 1973 Chevy Malibu.
So, is there a 'break-in' period for the new Tacoma? I drive the truck for work, five days a week, between 30-50 miles a day. Is there anything I need to know?
