Push pedal emergency brake...

...is a great feature on this truck

 

yes, yes it is...

anyone have theirs freeze up?

 

dont knwo what push pedal is or what it means. otherwise i would love to agree with how great it is.

 

Its that other pedal left of the brake that you push to make awesome spinouts!

 

not if you have a manual

I like it on gravel roads

 

You mean, my "other" left?

 

Rather have a Lever like in the Supras. Pedals suck b/c you have to push it all the way down to release. You can however put a rubberband on the ratchet pawl. but when you park... um, defeats that purpose. We already have a car like interior, might as well have a Supra inspired interior.

 

I don't have to push it all the way in to release...just a bit further than where I set it. Unless I'm on a steep hill, I just lightly press it in to keep the truck from sitting on the gear. A light tap will release it and I'm off.

I like not having it in the interior. I hated that twist and release handle the 1st gens had. And I'm glad it's not a big ass handle in the middle of the console like most vehicles have.

Many Chryslers have the foot pedal but they use a latch that is placed right next to the hood release to release the brake. If you have this, how many times have you popped the hood while trying to release the brake?



I wish they would put high beams back on the floor too! Too much going on with my hands to deal with all that crap at the steering wheel level.
I have 4 limbs and one of them (my left foot) does nothing to assist in the driving process. I say we put it to work!

 

Heck yeah!!! But mine is in a gay place

 

its funny, i just realized push pedal brake, floor thing, then i see all thepostings on it. i think that sucks, left foot is for clutch, the twist thing is better becasue its not on the center console, which is the worst place for brakes, maybe cant do a spin out with it, but if i wanna spin out, cut the wheel and flooor it.

 

I agree, for a truck the twist handle is the best. for a sports car the Lever in the console is king. Pedal is for average mom & pop cars.

 

I hated the twist handle on my first gen, I prefer it on the floor where it is.

 

I'm pretty sure you can relocate your foot brake to the handle in the dash. I was poking through there last week and it looked easy enough with the right parts.

 

I used to have a T100 and it had the twist pull grip e-brake and I kind of like it. Was in an area that was completely bare. Owell the T100 also didn't have a center console setup like the new Tacoma. Miss that truck...the thing was a beast!

Count me in on preferring the handle brake.

 

definitely prefer the the pull brake for a car and it makes no difference for the truck i don[t use it unless on a hill..

 

someone f'ed up, this thread should havebeen a vote!

 

I like the handle. I got used to it in my '94 Toyota, so I guess that helps. Mom's Highlander has the pedal brake and I hate it. The Ford I have the misfortune to drive at work has the pedal brake too, and the lever to release the brake down by the hood release. The lever is big enough to where I can just use my foot to pull it to release the brake, so I haven't hit the hood release...yet.

 

I hated the handle too. For the longest time, it hung loose and the E light was always on. Finally a dealer fixed it because I never knew about the TW fix.
