To dam or not to dam.

What's the true story on this ugly air damn under the nose of my new Sport?
Toyota would you like you to believe the added aerodynamics saves gas but their own MPG estimates show the Sport and Off Road as the same. It sounds like a little slight of hand to me.

I've got a ratchet in hand and itchy fingers to use it!

 

Took mine off the first weekend I got home with it.took only 5 minutes To unbolt it & put the screws back looks so much better & when I add the skid plate it will look even better https://www.ebay.com/itm/132059354254

 

Downforce for when you're racing your truck at Daytona wfo.

 

What he said. I took mine off soon after purchase. I slap it on for long road trips across the country only. Tbh I don’t notice a difference in MPG

 

Got rid of mine, and literally threw it in the dumpster. Nobody even wants to buy it for $10

 

I like it. I wouldn’t have bought the truck if I didn’t.

How effective is it? I haven’t seen any real world side by side testing. Though I strongly suspect it wouldn’t be any significant change in handling or MPG. Like spoilers it’s probably mostly cosmetic.

 

Please remove sir.

 

If you plan on taking your truck off roading you might as well remove it or let nature remove it for you

 

Dammed.

 

I’m surprised you didn’t remove it before you left the lot. LOL Off with it.....You won’t miss that .5mpg difference.

 

A lot of people don’t even notice an mpg difference.

 

Lol

I DID have them remove the silver bed decals before I left the lot. They just didn’t look right on the Voodoo Blue.

 

You’ll be happier with it off anyway. Looks better. My opinion anyway. Now get off Tacomaworld, walk outside right now with ratchet in hand and get to work

 

Frankly my dear Kruuuzn, I don't give a dam.

 

Same with the ugly none trd pro shift knob have it on eBay $5.00 no Interests in it at all lol I have the 6 speed manual TRD pro knob on it from the first week love it they should have just put that on from the factory instead of the Dildo looking one Imo

 

I agree.
That stock knob is SOME KINDA UGLY. I had the dealer include the Pro knob in my truck package BUT THEN pulled it out for a Core Shifter.

 

Swapped mine out for a 8-ball.

 

I was thinking I can use the Dildo looking one cut the bottom part off to use on a aftermarket knob & the boot can click on to the bottom of it like the oem fits

 

I don't do any heavy off-road, and the truck is still under toyota care so i'll leave this air dam in place to let them put up with it when they do an oil change. You can bet your ass it'll be gone when the 2 year program ends. I came close to leaving it off after i did rust proofing on the chassis.
