drained my tranny on accident

The dip stick is terrible on these trucks... luckily Tacoma's appear to be indestructible.

 

Never a problem here either. I always check it in the morning before the first start, since all of the oil has settled you don't even need to wipe it.

 

................. sorry to do so but both of these were awesome reads and hilarious. The energy drink in the gas tank is still making me laugh.

Well that sucks. Poor truck.

 

Any update on condition of the truck after fixing the mistake?

 

Beat me to it...

 

The title of this thread cracks me up. I jokingly say, I hope it was as good for the tranny as it was for you

 

This has to filed under "fake news", nobody can be this ignorant. The Mustang story as well.

 

I never check the oil dipstick. After 161,000 miles and about 30 oil changes done by yours truly, I know that a 5 Qt jug and another half a quart has it right where it needs to be.

On a side note, I too have a Fumoto valve but not sure how that's relevant...

 

It’s relevent cause it prevents you from accidentally draining the transmission fluid since it’s already on the oil plug

 

This is why Toyota removed the dipstick from the transmissions

 

I get it now...
