The last 2 Toyota trucks I bought had a bottle of sealant/wax in the glove box. That stuff is amazing. It makes the paint so shiny and slick it's hard to believe. They sell it at the dealers, too.

My guess is that it has nothing to do with the windshield.
 
I get wind noise at the doors at 55-60mph. It's probably hopeless above 70mph. I don't think wind noise is a priority on pickup trucks, and I doubt Toyota will fix it.

I agree with responder. Its a truck...not a luxury car. Wind noise is going to be an issue, especially with a sliding back window if present. If you want a car free of wind noise you should buy a Lexus or a Mercedes.

If you are talking about a whistling noise at 70-80 in a high cross wind, there is a TSB on this and I had no trouble getting Toyota to fix it. You don't have to live with it.
 
I used a digital camera to record a short movie showing:
 
1) my speed
2) the noise itself, which is unmistakable.
 
I had to play it back for the service manager in the showroom to get away from all the shop noise, but he heard it and they fixed it.
 
Here's the link to the TSB:

I have the same clunk in my 2005 Dbl Cab 4x4 and my 2003 Dbl Cab 4x4 that I had before. I keep getting the 'its normal' speech too. I would love to hear if the jewelers grease (or anything else) fixes it.

2005 Tacoma fan blower only operate at Hi speed. by eforsstrom

2005 Tacoma 4x4 Dbl Cab - The A/C - Heater blower inside all of a sudden will not operate at any other speed than full Hi. All the other positions on the fan switch are the same as Off. If the A/C button is On it does light up on all the speed settings, however the fan only blows on the highest setting. Any ideas?

Towing by tacomaguy

I have a 6 cylinder '05 TRD Prerunner 2-wheel drive automatic with the towing package. Would like to hear from anyone who has experience towing a heavy camping trailer with this truck. How much did the trailer weigh? How long was it? Issues? Am I limited to just pulling boats and small trailers? I know the truck is rated for towing a certain weight load but how realistic is it?

I tow a 1k trailer with 2k of ATV and camping gear. Acceleration has no noticeable effect until I get to 70+ mph. MPG drops to 16 on highway.
 
I do notice the load on my brakes. The trailer has no brakes and with 3k behind me, it takes longer to stop, so be careful.
 
I have 05 Dbl Cab 4x4.
