    Thinking of trading in your diesel on gas??

    I thought about trading it in. Brought the truck because liked the looks (yes a smaller gas truck (Toyota) would have been fine) of the king Ranch pkg. What put a sour taste here was the mileage, 10mpg seems like you were constantly stopping if used it on a trip. So shopped it around...

    Turbo Flutter

    This is how they defined it on the service order. Took the truck in since had a noise coming from the intake or turbo area of the motor. If raced the engine and let off the pedal got this puffing or flutter (air sound). When they took off the air filter element was louder. Thought it...

    Those numbers sure are better than 9. Took the diesel into town on an errand, filled up on the 8 mile trip back to the house it never went over 9mpg. That was on a 4 lane, cruise, no stops. The mid 20's to low 30's sure are nice to see on the mpg meter

    What kinda mileage figures are you getting out of the Tacoma. I know the V6 4 doors is rated at 20mpg. I brought a small Ford sedan to run errands in that dont require a truck. Its getting 35 on the road. A bud is looking a Tacoma was wondering how the 4cyl does.

    08 Tailgate Without The Step?

    Sure makes it easier to get up in the bed. Guess the new 150's are going to have the opt now. Three things were a must on the locator, Nav, moonroof and Steps. Traded a year old F150 in and the steps were a main reason
