Looks like fun. I still have bags of sand in the back of my truck during the winter, regardless of being in 4x4. It really helps to settle the back end down, and keep it from hopping around as much on the back end.
I have a Honda Fit. Best car I've ever owned. (I've owned a mustang, a g8, and now a bmw) I lifted it and put winter tires on it. Dominates the midwest snow. Next step is putting in a limited slip, but the thing does great in all weather on the right tires. I've autocrossed it too. 😆 People are sleeping on this car. It's the most fun, and reliable, practical daily driver you can buy. (I've fit a stove inside it that I bought my mom for christmas!)
pickup trucks are inherently worse in icy, snowy highway conditions, even off road they are not the best, a light weighted rear end will not have good traction for going, stopping and turning, adding some ballast would help a lot, but by far they get "squirrely" faster than most vehicles....the electronic stability controls aid some, but its not perfect.
@2:36 Note the back up camera can become blocked and use of a spotter may help you avoid backing into sheds. This safety tip brought to you by O'Sullivan Law. Call us when Tommy is driving in your neighborhood today. 🤣
Thanks for the video guys. I often wonder how the factory off road tires would perform in real world conditions and you show an example that most people above the snow line can appreciate.
Thanks for all the videos. As for the BF Goodrich Trail Terrain T/A tires are listed as 3PMSF on the website. I bought these for my Santa Fe. Love them.
I bought a 2023 Ford Ranger 4X4 and the factory tires are absolutely awful in the snow so I want to replace them with different tires. Which tire would you recommend for in snow? The BFG’s that are on Blueberry or Firestone Destination AT2’s? Thanks
Careful now. Don't break something with all that wheel spin! 😂 Was hilarious seeing that Honda getting around the same as you guy's were. And they don't even have to worry about breaking "their" front wheel drive lol! 😂🤣😂
@@DaleWilly Has it? I hope so. But my main purpose in making comments like this is to take the dealerships off their high horse and bring a stop to the ridiculous ADM many are charging for this already overpriced vehicle. The longer we DON'T let these things go, the more power we have to tell the dealer's that if we're going to be their "beta testers," they're going to have to make the deals MORE attractive. Not the other way around. We need to use the tools we've got, and "the pop that made it around the world" is a great tool to use to put their ADM nonsense at bay. We also have the "grill shutter incident" at our beck and call as well. If you keep giving this vehicle praise and "shine on" it's faults, you'll never be able to get a decent deal on one. BTW, I'm a Tacoma owner myself. But I can't stand to see dealers abuse customers. Use the tools you have to help reign this in.
@@QueensizemusicThere's another RUclipsr that watches the availability and pricing of 24' Tacoma's in his area sometimes. When that video with the "pop" came out, I found it interesting that not only did the ADM pretty much go away from most dealerships, but a few actually had discounts. The discounts were small, but still there were discounts. It's too early to just "let it go" and carry on as if everything's perfect. An occasional reminder is needed to keep it real and not forget so quickly. This can only help for those who might be considering buying one of these. As it gives them the tools they need to wipe that greedy ADM smile off the dealerships faces.
And Tommy complained about it not wanting to go sideways. Or the way he put it,the back not wanting to kick out, it didn't want to let him have to much fun.
It was a part that broke in the front differential. Instead of just replacing that part, they replaced the whole differential under warranty. Apparently Toyota wanted their front diff to study...
You guys keep saying that the BFG TrailTerrain is not snow rated. But online tire sources say it is 3PMS. Did Toyota get a special version not rated for snow? If so, why?
Perfect conditions to ping another front diff? They mentioned in past videos the ADD was at fault so was that the electronic shift fork or the splined collar the fork engages to connect the front drive shafts that popped?
Quick question. Why don’t you have the lovely front end lower air dam on today🤣. Also. Snow driving is way more fun with a small front wheel drive car and a center of the car hand brake for slow motion drifting.
I dont think the capabilities of a TRD is in question. Its the longevity of the the turbo 4 banger vs the tried and true V6 that everyone is concerned about. We shall see.
The tire choice Toyota uses from BF Goodrich and Falken as standard equipment on some Tacomas, RAV4’s and Tundras are not snow rated. Aftermarket models of these tires are snow rated.
When will you get into detail on what broke? All you said was the part that broke and that they fixed it. Toyota reached out to you directly. Did the update or re engineer the part. Should we all be worried about it braking on us? That has to be more to the story… please share.
There's a part in the differential that broke(they said what it was called, but I don't remember). Toyota said that the part was designed to break under an extreme load, to prevent total destruction of the differential. So it was designed to act like a "fuse". However, it obviously broke far more easily than was expected. Toyota engineers are looking into it. That is what is known. I'm sure we'll hear more about it when Toyota figures it out.
@@Adriangee818All people know now is that the differential failed during relatively mild off-roading. A lot of people saw it. That's not a good look for Toyota, a brand that depends on reliability for it's success. It's in their best interest to give TFL the details as quickly as possible.
278 hp is NOT about 300 hp. Talk about embellishment Roman!!! Yeah you like Toyota, but that should not override objective journalism. No matter hoe entertaining, you are trying to be the nature of your channels renders you a journalist at all times. Tommy is right about, especially current traction control, and how it is regarding getting you around in slick conditions. 10 inches of snow is still pretty easy in most 4x4s, now that 32 or 33 inch tires are becoming almost standard!! Even with the mid-size trucks. I like this truck a lot! I CAN be heavily biased and Un objective if I choose, but I won’t. Until I know more about how frequent that front differential fail safe is gonna fail!! It failed way too soon in the scenario where it failed,,,, I will just wait a year or so. I’m in no hurry,,, I’m very happy with what I drive right now. 😊
I'm glad you mentioned the sandbags. In an accident they become dangerous missiles. Plus the more way you add to the truck the farther it takes to come to a stop.
Adding some weight to your rear axle definitely improves your braking. My F150 is 4wd, and I rarely have to bother engaging it in snow & ice if I have 400-600 lb of sand in the bed-and the difference in braking is noticeable.
What was surprising in this? My Ford escape 2013 can do better than this in this snow, ❄️ Surprisingly if you put this Tacoma in a harder test i am afraid it will broke again 😅😂😂😂😂😂
![Felix "Unfair" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Oswujxm2Ag0/mqdefault.jpg)
Fantastic video 😊 I like how new turbo sounds personally. Especially in the snow to kool!!
Nothing like a Honda fit motoring around as good the Tacoma in 5 inches of snow!
my exact thought lol

Lol, little old lady in a Honda Fit going down the same roads like nothing 😂
Shhh, don't tell people we don't need 60k trucks to go over some snow.
unless you need ground clearance@@walawala-fo7ds
She has alot of experience 😂 no she got stuck around the corner 😅
This storm wasn't that bad really, I live in the same area.
Loved it if the Honda Fit lady stopped and asked if they needed help 😂

I'd like to see this in Seattle with that deep, wet snow and steep hills.
Can someone link the video where they explain what broke on the new Toyota and how they fixed it. I can’t find it. Thanks.
Front diff, they just replaced the whole thing so engineers could look at it.
I was there, actually! I’m driving from Malibu to North Carolina for the month (working on a house I have out there), and the snow was BEAUTIFUL!
The BFG trail terrains are 3 peak snow rated.
Even front wheel drive does well on flat roads.
Thanks for the video guys. I often wonder how the factory off road tires would perform in real world conditions and you show an example that most people above the snow line can appreciate.
We were going to pick one of these up but with all the issues it looks like this will end up like the 2016 Tacoma. We got another 4runner instead.
Thanks for all the videos. As for the BF Goodrich Trail Terrain T/A tires are listed as 3PMSF on the website. I bought these for my Santa Fe. Love them.
Take a drink every time Tommy says Dad.
I'd have alcohol poisoning
I don't have that kind of tolerance anymore....lol
…while he’s talking to his dad?
I’m gonna guess some social media person working for TFL told them it gets more views because god dang 😂
Wow, It did as well as the K-truck!
That’s the kinda mess we get in Tennessee when it does snow. Wet and layer of ice underneath.
I bought a 2023 Ford Ranger 4X4 and the factory tires are absolutely awful in the snow so I want to replace them with different tires. Which tire would you recommend for in snow? The BFG’s that are on Blueberry or Firestone Destination AT2’s? Thanks
Dont try going up a hill it might break again. The fit looked like it was going through the snow just as well.
umm why would it break again?? That issue has been fixed, so STOP
i love how much people hate if u cant afford it just say so
So when these roads are plowed, and you are going between a lot of wet to dry... 2WD or leave in 4WD?
Appreciate all the work you guys put into this content!
Wasn't sure if that front end would hold up.😁
Careful now. Don't break something with all that wheel spin! 😂 Was hilarious seeing that Honda getting around the same as you guy's were. And they don't even have to worry about breaking "their" front wheel drive lol! 😂🤣😂

@@escheidl I hear you, but your
Comments won’t affect the outcome of sales, however, the videos do achieve that aim.
Regular Tacomas with their two foot tall front air dams would have instantly turned into snowplows.
The Fit made it through and the Tacoma is going sideways.
And Tommy complained about it not wanting to go sideways. Or the way he put it,the back not wanting to kick out, it didn't want to let him have to much fun.
Did I miss the video where the 20 Toyota engineers determined what broke on the Tacoma?
It was a part that broke in the front differential. Instead of just replacing that part, they replaced the whole differential under warranty. Apparently Toyota wanted their front diff to study...
@@BROON71that's how they improve quality. Toyota is the best at fixing broken things.
You missed it because it’s an internal Toyota video and you are not one of the 20 Toyota engineers. 😍
The video is here on RUclips. Anyone can watch it...
@@BROON71they took it out back and beat it up just like that poor printer didn’t they?
You guys keep saying that the BFG TrailTerrain is not snow rated. But online tire sources say it is 3PMS. Did Toyota get a special version not rated for snow? If so, why?
I am confused as well, my new tacoma comes with thèse as well, the dealer does not recommend anything else, and I am living in Atlantic Canada,,,
Tommy is having way too much fun
Perfect conditions to ping another front diff? They mentioned in past videos the ADD was at fault so was that the electronic shift fork or the splined collar the fork engages to connect the front drive shafts that popped?
Frozen blueberry mode 😂. The Honda Fit is just fine at that depth of snow.
The fit was plowing! I had one and always say FWD will always make it home!
I got 2 feet in that storm and my sister got 4 feet. Was out in my Colorado the one day and it was wild (but fun). Mine's all melted already though. 😆
At least the new front diff is working so far.
Working as long as it’s not engaged 😆
Of course it does, why wouldn't it?
@@StripedTurkeyumm stop
@@DaleWilly gee I haven't a clue why!
Father and son winter testing in their own residential neighborhood. 🤣🤣🤣
Glad a kid didn’t run out or a kid on a sled came out in front of them. When it snows the big kids need to play
A smooth and powerful N/A V6, and extended cab. That would be a very nice option.
Tell your lawmakers that
Love these Tacoma videos
GREAT LOOKING BUILT PICKUP TRUCK AND THE COLOR LOOKS GREAT
Quick question. Why don’t you have the lovely front end lower air dam on today🤣. Also. Snow driving is way more fun with a small front wheel drive car and a center of the car hand brake for slow motion drifting.
Tommy, get some winter tyres on the 2CV. Then you'll discover unstoppable!
This is a cool fun video. Great job 👏 👍 👌
Well, considering that the Tacoma just came back from the dealership after breaking the front diff in the snow, I'd say snow wins.
That thing would be unstoppable with a set of X-Ice Snow
i hope they do a follow up the next day when there are 35 inches on the ground. thats when the rubber 'doesn't' hit the road.
This should have been done at the Ranch.
yes it should and not F'ing up the neighbor hood for other drivers !!!
I dont think the capabilities of a TRD is in question. Its the longevity of the the turbo 4 banger vs the tried and true V6 that everyone is concerned about. We shall see.
You need to have David cut those steps off... Boom, rock sliders.
Pop! Dang front diff!
Tommy, those BFG Trail-Terrians are usually 3 Peak snow rated. Are you sure yours aren't? Is the Taco on LTs?
The tire choice Toyota uses from BF Goodrich and Falken as standard equipment on some Tacomas, RAV4’s and Tundras are not snow rated. Aftermarket models of these tires are snow rated.
@@joeimbesi5361Ah. Thanks for the info.
I'm sure the neighbors love it.
Where is the DEEP snow? My 2021 Audi RS5 & 2017 Subaru STI do the same and in deeper snow. PLEASE!
Nothing snapped this time...
Well, it didn't snap a half shaft, so I'd call it a success.
Why would it surprise me that the Tacoma did well in the snow?

Nothing wrong with the axel
looks good
You guys speak about tires all the time. You used to do tire tests i think we need to have some of that again.
Wow, earth shattering information....

I think Tommy was having so much fun his Dad could consider making Tommy pay for the Privilege of "working".
Yeehaw, flinging a truck around in snowy residential streets. Brought to you by O'Sullivan Law.
Don’t know if O’Sullivan law could be much help if a kid playing in the snow was hurt by their “testing “ @MavadoKen
How about a RWD to compare?Bet it would get you there too only wouldn’t take off as quickly.
I'm glad this truck wasn't being DIFF icult again lol
Boulder?! I'm amazed you are even allowed to own a gas vehicle much less a truck. That aside, keep the reports on the new Taco coming.
Had to drive around town, too afraid it was going to break on you out in the woods..
