Ron, definitely go to Toyota Nation, and put tons of details up there, including vehicle history.   That's awfully low odometer mileage, for 6 year old truck.... which is fine, or is it?   It might also suggest the vehicle usage hasn't been "full range", and maybe the fuel system is getting cruddy. Has it been on the highway, driven fairly hard? If not, how long since it has>   Toyota trucks, treated right, are not usually a problem.... with the exception of the early Tacoma "frame death", which mine had.   160, 000 miles, and I didn't even take that good care of it, other than running Amsoil in the crank. Thing purrrred. 3.4 v6   Pour a can of Sea Foam into a tank of gas, and see if that helps. Also, are you getting your fuel from a reputable gas station.... one that also moves a lot of fuel?
#480 of 539 Recommended Tires for 2003 2WD? by juking2 Sep 18, 2007 (12:17 am)
I have a 2003 Tacoma Extended Cab 2WD with 40,000 miles on the original tires. They are Firestone Wilderness HT P205 75R15 97s M+S. They are rated at 60,000 miles, and still have good tread. However, I am beginning to shop for replacements. Can anyone recommend good replacements (competitor or otherwise). I live in Florida, and I drive mostly on improved roads and highways with very little off road driving. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Replying to: juking2 (Sep 18, 2007 12:17 am) What are your "replacement criteria"?   Do you want inexpensive? Do you want superior ride?   If I could easily afford them, as daily usage tires, I would ALWAYS buy Michellin's.   Frankly, I never believed Michellins could be that much better than other tires, until I put a set on my van. It was like I had purchased a new car. The ride was that much different than the "cheaper" tires.   They do make some pretty good sized tires.   My 2¢
#483 of 539 Shop manuals by mikefm58 Sep 23, 2007 (10:33 am)
Can anyone comment on the best manuals for just basic maintenance? How are Haynes and Chiltons for Toyotas? I didn't care for them for Hondas and picked up an official shop manual on helminc.com but they don't have Toyotas.

i prefer chilton's they give more data such as horsepower ratings-they're at kragen...although your vehicle may be too new for publication
