Tips and Tricks on the 3rd Gen Tacoma

we have a 21 gallon tank. I'm wondering how much gas is left in the tank on average when the distance to empty reads zero on the display? How many gallons are you guys putting in when it's zero? Thanks.

 

at 0, i can put in about 18. this last tank i reeeeally wanted to hit 400+mi so i drove almost 30 mi past the 0 mark and got in 20.144 gallons with 416 miles.

 

Wow! I thought I was bad driving 12 miles past the 0 mark!

 

did another one today. about 20 miles past getting in 19.8 gallons at the pump. so realistically i wouldn't want to go more than 40 miles past 0.

 

Just filled up and got 18.8 right on E and about 2 mi past the 0 countdown. Ultra-Gauge estimated 45 miles left and a little over 2 gallons left.

 

Sweet. Thanks guys.

 

That's awesome!! So, we bout about 2 gallons past 0!

 

So kinda goes along with what my service guys say. When you got your new keys did they do anything to your existing lock ? I had my local Ace store cut me a key so as to have a spare. Did not work. The Ace guy was saying that the lock is a electronic type....takes a special key ! I have a 2016 Limited with all the bells & wheels and know that the key fob does not operate the tailgate. Did Toyota supply the extra key or was it out of your pocket ?!

 

That's all Bullcrap....No electronic shit there.. I had the exact same issue with a $2.00 cut key from the hardware store... I just filed the tip of it a small amount (off the end) and it works perfect...They gave it to me for nothing cuz it did not work... dumb asses..!!

I only got 1 key as well...that's Toyota cheap-assing out..!!

 

Are you talking about the tailgate key? If so not electric like the gentleman said. I have one cut at the hardware works fine.

 

The tailgate key question is on the main list of things, there is a separate key apart from the FOB that locks/unlocks the tailgate. Please read the first page to get that information.

 

Last night I filled up 18.4 gallons when the truck was telling me I had 15 miles to empty.

 

Sweet. Reason I ask is because I like to pay for my gas cash on the Barrell Head son. Now I know it's around 18 gallons.

 

they also come in a white v6, DC/SB auto. i want to say it was around 31k ish. super tempted to get one as i like the idea of the non painted front bumper as i would be replacing it anyways.

 

What is the EXACT name of this feature in vehicle customization? I can't seem to find it.

 

Quick Question.

So I've recently noticed my bed lights don't turn on anymore when I unlock the truck....Is there a setting somewhere that I have to turn on? I was fucking with the settings the other day and I can't remember what I changed.

 

Check your switch on left by your knee...it has.....ON/door/off
You might have hit OFF..

 

I have an access cab...no switch.

 

Can't help ya there then... go back in settings and look around..??

 

You have bed lights in an Access Cab?
