SURVEY: WHAT IMPERFECTIONS/FLAWS DID YOU FIND WHEN YOU TOOK DELIVERY?

I have Toyoguard and 60k maintenance. I'll probably tell them not to bother rotating the Duncraps. I plan to change them out by 10k anyway.

 

My OEM Dunlops have 18,000 on them and they still look good. I expect to get 30-40,000 out of them and if so, that will be the most of any factory tire ever for me. I rotate every 5,000 with oil change...Next set will be Michelins though...

 

I have a slight imperfection in the dash finish, about 3 o'clock above the steering wheel. Roughly the size of a pencil eraser head. It is very flat in finish and texture whereas the dash has a slightly glossier finish. But I am semi OCD and fixate on imperfections. I didn't notice it at delivery as the delivery bay is indoors and it is difficult to see with overhead lighting vs natural light. I initially thought about taking it back and saying something, but I figured the dash installed by the factory is better than a replacement installed by the dealer. Now I just think of it as more of a beauty mark. Besides, it is a pickup truck not a German luxury car.

 

Good luck w that.

 

None. More than I can say for Ford or Honda.

I already put more scratches in it than anyone else will anyways.

Stock Dungflop tires on the Sport are wearing way too good at 16k miles they look new. Can't justify getting rid of a good tire even if they suck ass in everything but dry conditions. My last set of Dungflops was on a new 2010 Honda Fit, they were rotated religiously and made it 19k miles before they were BALD.

 

The bed was crooked, not parallel to the frame! (by about an inch to the driver's side on the front of the bed). Fixed while I finalized the paperwork.

 

Minor scratch above drivers side door... dealer offered to buff it out, but I figured I'd put worse scuffs in it pretty quickly. (And I did.) Other than that, pretty much perfect.

 

80% of my driving is highway, only had the truck since March 1 and already at 18,200 miles. The Dunlops ride like crap in the rain and snow so far, but they are wearing nicely so I can deal with it this time of year....I've had worse.

 

when I got mine in 08 new, it had AWESOME single stage paint. (white is the worst) just had it repainted base+clearcoat this time

 

Now looks better than new

 

You guys need to get a life. Oh that's right you bought a truck because you thought it was cool not because you needed a truck. Two days after I bought mine I hit the rear flair with the chain saw blade heading off into the woods to cut fire wood in my new truck. It has paint chips on the hood from stones the door sill is showing paint ware from getting in and out I think I would be pretty upset if my new Lambo didn't shine like a mirror but I know using a truck as a truck it's going to get scratched I didn't buy it to sit in the garage and get waxed once a week. Don't get me wrong the truck still looks new but I haven't lost a bit of sleep over a ding or a scratch yet.

 

Yea but my truck im going to keep forever, I take it camping, wheeling, i carry firewood, i carry mulch in it all the time, ive hauled rock, brick ec, ect. I had to replace my rear springs to TRD springs due to a my stocks started sagging from hauling due to weight. So is it wrong that i like my truck and want it to look good? Its the first new vehicle I've ever had (out of over 30 cars in my life), I even had to switch to the vinyl floor kit due to my kids ruined the carpet

 

I bought a truck cause I think it's cool!! But seriously I use my truck to get stone and haul other things as well but if there were paint chips on the hood...that would piss me off

 

The top righthand side of the dash turning white....the michael j. thing.
Drivers door out of alignment, like my 2011 was.
I ignored it....best truck I've ever owned.

 

I was so critical when I took delivery, only to find a minor fit issue with passenger front fender and bumper cover but a day later! The gap is, to me, noticeably larger that the driver side. Other than that I can't complain. I love my truck!
Whether or not I use my truck for pleasure or work, passing judgment on PRIDE of ownership is lame and I have a good life! Just my 2 cents.

 

Well personally I have a life, and there's nothing wrong to want a perfect truck straight from the dealership. I don't mind scratches and dents, as long as I'm the one who maid them........

 

The bed on my '13 TRD OR was easily an inch out of line. Really easy fix, had to buy the massive Torx driver and loosen them up, align by sight and then re-torque.

 

<<< Bought my Tacoma because I think its cool. Im sure im not alone

 

None.I wouldn't of purchased the truck if there were any imperfections/flaws.
