Just trying to get a few discussions going. Use this one to post things you don't like about your Tacoma...
I really have just one thing I dislike, the over use of plastic. From all the cheap little fasteners to the plastic bumper. Other than that I don't dislike anything about my Tacoma. It is a pretty sweet machine...
I will say this much, at least it isn't as bad a Nissan Talk about over use of plastic !! And ugly to boot...

My truck is a little loud on the inside. I do have a flowmaster 40, but it was still noisy when I bought it from the engine compartment. Is there anything that I can do about that?
I do NOT have the hood liner on the inside. why????? does the dealer discriminate against reg cabs????

Hello fellow moderator and TTORA member!
I would say you have 2 options:
1)If it can be put on after you have already gotten the truck, you can get Toyogard put on. That should make it quieter. I rode in a 2001 double cab with Toyo Gard and it was alot quieter inside than my 2000.
2)you can go to a car stereo place and ask them about insulation

I definitley have to agree with you there. Not only does the setup suck, but so do some of the pieces. I already have to replace my PS pump. As we all know, this is one of the weak points of the system.

or is it because I got a basic model.
??
who knows.
I think I mentioned this to you before. If you get some Dynamat and cover the back of your cab, it will probably help. If you need some help, let me know.
Later,

My truck is too new, and leased, so a BL is out of the question for now. However, your setup is JUST what I want (cept some sliders and a locker)
I also have 3.56 gears, so 33's would KILL me.
The road is long...I have plenty of time to get it higher
Cool, I guess I could have checked your link :smoker2:
As for the rock sliders and a locker. Both of those are on my list. Actually I hope to get a locker and 4.88 rear gear by the end of April...
You say you have the 3.56 ?? Check the code, B07A is what I have and it is a 4.30 gear. You have a standard 4x4, maybe that is te reason for the difference...
Might want to double check though, at first I thought I had 3.56 gears too, just becasue a few other guys said they did. Seems they changed the gearing in the 2000 model...
Later bud...

My 96 was leased when I was running 35s and 7" of lift.
It also was a my company vehicle (at least thats what it was originaly bougt for) I also used it in Tug-of-war competiotions. I just eneded up buying it at the end of the lease. I would agree about the gears. That combo would suck.:flash:

I know what you mean I just replaced my PS pump about a month ago!
