    This is that gun store commando type bullshit that doesn't help anyone. One guy's unsubstantiated opinion is being touted as fact.

    You have actually had more rear end replacements than oil changes. Nicely done, Toyota!

    That is a very nice looking truck, it is too bad you have had so many issues with it.

    True that, Yeah I've been driving 4wd vehicles for 40 years ... I say shift into 4wd-hi on the fly and out of 4wd-hi on the fly.. It's how I do it. Problem solved.

    It's normal for your differential to sound like a washing machine full of rocks? hmm I don't agree. Spinning one wheel in the air like that should help it fail sooner.

    I had an 04 taco that had a suspension lift that was not properly installed. After almost two years my gears almost ate themselves due to the bad angle on the rear shaft (I didn't know anything about trucks then). Your video reminds me of the same sounds I heard back on my 04. If this is normal for a 3rd gen...don't know how you guys do it.

    UPDATE. UPDATE. UPDATE

    I GOT A CALL TODAY FROM THE REGIONAL OFFICE AND I GOT GOOD NEWS, AFTER OVER A MONTH THEY AGREED TO DO A REPLACEMENT/REPURCHASED OF MY TRUCK. IM HAPPY BECAUSE THE FUEL PUMP FAIL LAST WEEK AND I WAS HAVING SOME IDLE ISSUES. MY DILEMMA IS GET A REPLACEMENT OR MY MONEY BACK....I DID FINANCED THIS TRUCK I DID PUT 21K DOWN PLUS 6 PAYMENTS... OR JUST GET A REPLACEMENT. TRD OFFROAD/QUICKSAND MANUAL TRANSMISSION. I LIKE THE TRUCK BUT I THINK JUST BECAUSE I GOT A BAD ONE IT DOESN'T MEAN ALL TACOMAS ARE BAD TRUCKS. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER CHEVY OR FORD ... I GOT THE TACOMA JUST BECAUSE THEY OFFERED IN MANUAL TRANSMISSION.....

    THANKS
