  1. I own a 2006 Tacoma 2.7 Liter Automatic. I've owned it since new. Great truck. However, The 4 Speed Automatic (or is it a 5 speed automatic?)...is a bit of a dog I've learned over the years. Anyone know how to update or modify the software via a chip, to help the truck utilize its gearing better, via the engine, gearbox - for better pep? I have resorted more often nowadays, to using the automatic, shifter and going into 2nd or third, upon acceleration, as quite often, the computer seems to lag causing the automatic shifting to lag and be quite the dog (bog down) upon acceleration. Anyone have helpful tech tips, do tell?! Thanks. ;)
  2. Hey everyone, Is there an adaptor available for my 06 Tacoma Factory radio so I can use a Flash Drive, loaded with music, to then play through my radio for my listening pleasure? B) Thanks, Dan
  3. Yo, I need a Silver Tacoma Tailgate [05, or later] for my SR5 Tacoma! If you have one that isn't damaged, scratched, dented or otherwise in ill repair, let me know! I'll make you an offer for the tailgate. I live in Portland Oregon. I'm not interested in the cheap aftermarket brands, unpainted, unassembled, etc., tailgate -- only a tailgate that is is ready to install - silver color, no dents, scratches, etc. Thanks, Dan
  4. Hello everyone! I've recently read about hypermilling or hypermiler's -- which means one coasts in Neutral (auto or manual) whilst driving say downhill, then re-engage the gearbox, (I have an automatic)...when a flat plain comes up - or a gradual climb or hill. I've had good success thus far - and haven't any gear noise, all smooth transitions. Here's my question: Since Reverse in my automatic, is right above neutral, what happens if I by mistake, slip it into reverse gear? Obviously one of two things will happen...nothing as there's a safeguard in place dis-allowing the gearbox from engaging into reverse, or the gearbox engages into reverse and I lose the gearbox, as the truck flips and I die! Hope not... :o :!: Anyone know? Today - in fact, I slipped it into reverse for a moment and nothing happened, (for about 1 second)... I'm compelled to try this, as I read an article in the newspaper about it, as it really helps conserve fuel. Thanks.
  5. Hello, I'm in need of a Silver 05, 06 or 07 Tacoma Tailgate, in very good condition. I would like one with no scratches, dents or malfunctions of any sort! Last week, I backed into a US Mailbox...it was out of my view! Thanks and let me know asap! Dan

  7. Hello all! I backed into a US Mailbox (couldn't see the dang thing) about a week ago and crunched my tailgate and good! So, I wanted to find out if anyone here has or knows of someone with a in-very-good condition, SILVER Tacoma SR5 Tailgate? Please let me know asap! Thanks, Dan
