    2014 Tacoma SR5 4x4 DC SB V6 AT Tow Pkg Entune+ Mostly stock with a few OEM mods.
    Stock (99.999%) OEM Bed Floor Mat, Front Bed Rail Cargo Net and hooks, Auto-Dim mirror w/Compass and outside Temperature display, TRD Pro Grille, Uni-Filter air pump modification, WeatherTech floor liners f/r. OEM All-Weather floor mats (summer).
    I'd add: Do not remove the drain plug, until you first confirm the fill plug is going to come out. If you drain it and the fill plug won't budge,
    you're toast/done. I would use PB Blaster on both several days in advance and multiple times before attempting to remove either one.
    If they are still tight/stubborn to move/remove, spray it again, put the 6-point socket on it, give it a few light-medium taps with a small hammer
    on the socket and try it again.

    For those of you that know more than I do, wouldn’t this be a good opportunity to have the oil analyzed? Seems like that might be a cheap diagnostic tool at this point.
