    I'm looking to see if anyone added a remote start to their truck yet. If so, I'd like to learn more about what's involved and what brand you selected. Any vids would be greatly appreciated.

    I have a Viper 2 Way LCD remote start with 1 mile range and love the thing. Never been anywhere where my truck wouldn't start. Had it on my previous 2013 also!!!

    if your asking about 2016 model then there is no firmware available for immo. you would have to do it old school style and lose a key or do a wrap

    I lost a key in mine but i also had two keys made for $100 and programmed to the truck. This place called http://carkeysexpress.com/.
    There is guys located all over the place and the guy who made me two at the dealership where i bought my truck they were $49.90 each and he programmed them to the truck for me!

    I basically went to bestbuy and had them install mine. Got the 5704 unit that adds alarm too. I too also lost a key but that wasn't a big deal.

    I wouldn't normally have bestbuy do it but have 2 locations where they have an installer that really kno what their doing.

    I can't comment on the Tacoma becuase I've only had it a month. But I have the viper 2 way on another car and I'm on my fourth winter and the vehicle only failed to start on me once. I never figured out why but it alerted my key there was error n that the car wasn't stsrted. Other then the 1 time. It starts for me every time.
