    I am a 1st time owner of a 2015 TRD Sport and have noticed I scrap when going over larger speed bumps. Is this normal?

    Yeah, just like the 2 above me I hope it's your mud flaps. They're long on the Tacoma. A lot of people trim them.


    If it's your exhaust, then something is wrong or these speed bumps are giant.
