    We used to tow a 2005 Tacoma. Best toad I ever had. I am now in the market for a new toad. I am aware that I will have to install a driveshaft disconnect as in the older Tacoma. No big deal.
    But I had read somewhere about a problem with the steering wheel lock. I cannot find the post but this owner had to grind something in the column to disable the lock. I sure don't want o do anything like that. I also read that if you turn the key on and then off you can remove the key and the wheel will be unlocked. I have a braking system for the toad but I read that the Tacoma uses a hydraulic booster. Is that correct. Anyone know of someone who is towing a 16 Tacoma??

    Thanks

    You'll want a truck with the key style ignition and not push button. This would also rule out the TRD offroad with hydraulic booster
