    3rd Gen Tacoma software upgrade

    should be a crime for it not to work like it is supposed to with no fix available I know I mentioned before, I have wanted Android Auto for so long and am extremely disappointed with how it works in my 2023 Taco why does it work so well in the RAV4?!

    3rd Gen Tacoma software upgrade

    offtopic maybe threadjack: does Android Auto just drop regularly with the OEM headunit circa 2023 Taco or is it just always buggy? I have been pretty frustrated with it since I have wanted to be able to use Android Auto since it first came out and my '23 Taco has been my first real use. The...

    24 Tacoma Price

    my opinion would be no, but I intentionally went for a fairlady '23 because I did not like the direction they were going with the '24 up to you, but maybe you can still find '23s on the lot somewhere or other 3rd gen being traded in for '24

    Saw the other thread about Android Auto update, but was not sure if this was actually related. Not sure how well CarPlay works, but Android Auto is really hit or miss. Sometimes, it seems to work almost flawlessly. Other times, it seems to just disconnect/reconnect along with sometimes asking...
