    That's fine. It's interesting to know how widespread a problem is. Some seem like they wish their problems on others. Some think nothing can ever go wrong with a Tacoma.

    It's quiet but nowhere near as quiet as my 14 Silverado was, and don't try to argue GM promoted the shit out of all sound dampening they did to those trucks.

    Most of the 2017s have the updated CPS. I think only a couple 2017s here have failed, but I'm not sure of their build dates.

    Nice truck, OP. Glad you are enjoying it, and I hope it serves you well for a long time! I noticed how quiet the cab was too, even for an access cab it's quiet.

    i have also had my Tacoma more than a week. I also upgraded from a 2007 second gen. Everything about the 2017 is way better than the 2007. It's almost like I am in a different era to be honest.

    If it wasn't for the step down in mileage, I don't think I would have any problem at all.
