    Hi all,

    New Tacoma owner. Decided to part ways with my 2008 Trail Teams FJ recently and moved over to a 2019 Tacoma SR5 4x4. Not a premium package vehicle.

    I have a question about daytime running lights on this truck. My model does not have Auto on the light switch tree. It goes from OFF, DRL, PARKING, ON. However, I was surprised to see that when I turn it to DRL, the amber parking lights come on, but there is no white light at all. Is that normal? In other words, are the amber parking lights considered to be daytime running lights on the 2019 Tacoma?

    Mines the same. Amber in the front. All the parking light position does is turn on the tail lights too.
