Or use a jack. Jack up the back and let the front wheels pull the truck forward. If it’s sand you can dig some space and get enough room to gain speed and don’t stop.
Here's a tip I learned while in police academy during the defensive drive course. As a deputy sheriff there's no telling where we'd be at any given time. Paved roads, logging roads, back yards, crossing creeks etc. If you're stuck lightly apply the parking brake. It keeps the wheels from spinning so fast and helps get a grip a little better. This way the wheels will "crawl" out of whatever you're in. Keep in mind it doesn't apply to deliberate mud bogging. I chased a guy once that was driving one of those off road side by side...I think it was called a mule by Kawasaki ...I was in a late 90s Ford crown Vic ...anyway he tried to get away by going on a logging road. I got stuck about a half a dozen times and the only way I got out was using the parking brake trick. My wife is a nurse w a home health agency. She visits patients in their homes. So she will drive on dirt roads which after rains become muddy and slippery. She had a few patients who lived up long drive ways. She called me once and told me she was stuck and couldn't get out. It was pouring rain and a wrecker would have been at least an hour or more away. I told her about the parking brake and she was able to get out. She's told me several times since then when she was stuck that the parking brake helped her out. She was driving a 2001 2 wheel drive Toyota 4 Runner. It also works on slippery roads if you driving up a grade and sometimes in icy conditions. Maybe this will help someone. Anyway. Something to consider
its just tricking the axle in the diff. Makes it think the tire thats spinning is the one with traction and the other one has zero. Equilly applies power to both rear wheel than just that 1 side getting all the power..
@@jeremymyers1723 G wagons are very capable, it's just that no one can DIY repairs when something breaks or wants to spend repair prices for when someone else needs to fix it 😂
There’s other crawl control demonstration videos on RUclips where they do it on a flat surface but I’ve only seen it done on sand. Not sure if it would work in mud, it think it would definitely struggle more with the sticky suction effect of mud plus dry sand doesn’t cake the tire. Once mud cakes a tire tread and makes it a slick, crawl control won’t help
Yup - muddy, boggy ruts in the bush are a different animal. Unless driving on a beach (which I've never done), this video really isnt indicative of real driving conditions.
I live on the Oregon coast, I don't generally take my 2017 Tacoma on the beach but there is plenty of sand everywhere around here and I have gotten myself unstuck several times with crawl control. Including going uphill. Its not a foolproof magic bullet, but its a lot better than a standard 4x4 system. What I use if for mostly though is as a slow motion cruise control. I let the truck take care of acceleration and braking and I just concentrate on where the wheels are.
How many of them are Toyotas with Crawl Control??? Yeah, thought so, haven't seen a single one on there RUclips, there was one Tacoma that someone wrecked... 🤣🤣
@@ArmandoPerez-hz7wp Um, no, I don't think so. Tacoma has fly by wire gas pedal. You can't hit the brakes AND the gas at the same time. The computer won't let U. If you are hitting the gas and tap the brakes, the truck makes a loud WONK/BAM noise with the computer countermanding you. I think crawl control does brakes and gas at the same time. The computer keeps some gas coming, but blips the brakes on all 4 tires non stop to prevent any wheel spin.
Everybody knows Tacoma is tough truck, but the 4x4 gets better and better every year, it seems. I had to get rid of my 4Runner. The motor and transmission are just fine. It was the rust that finally did me in.
A very experienced driver could do the same thing. With that said I am impressed. The engineers realy set out with a goal in mind and would not stop until they had fully accomplished it. I'm also happy to see that this public sales demo was done in dry sand. most manufacturers would dampin the sand in order to insure that the could get out no problem even if they knew that the vehicle could get out with out doing so. Shows that Toyota is furthering the track racord in the truck world of being honest. Crazy, an honest car company.
Smith3025 I’m looking to buy a 2020 version of this truck. I’m far from “Experienced”. It’s a nice feature to have in the middle of no where when there isn’t much help around. Just my opinion.
No an experienced driver can not get out of this the only way they can get out is if they physically get out and dig it out. There's no way you are turning each individual wheel separately.
@@alex2jz140 False. Its how all of us used to get out of bad situations before TC came into the picture. Yes you cannot turn each wheel separately, however you can apply brake pressure with your left foot while applying the throttle to cause the vehicle to drive the wheels through the brakes. Doing so will mitigate wheel spin and force torque over to the wheel with more traction. We used to do that in the desert long before this tech came along. In RWD cars in the winter using the handbrake has a similar effect if one has an open differential. Same way I used to get my SC400 around in the winter before I got an LSD
This is very cool but what settings are you using? Lowest speed? Highest? What are the settings on the crawl control dial? Whats the step by step to make it possible for a novice to get his new Tacoma out of the sand?
They purposely gunned the gas with crappy all-terrain tires to dig their wheels into holes. That's the exact opposite of what you're supposed to do in soft sand. That is the definition of "working it to get it stuck".
I’ve got an 18 TRD off-road. I power braked it in 2wd in flat sand. 4wd hi, buried it while turning the front wheels to make it worse. Still popped out with crawl control. Nuts.
I’m not sure, I know my quartro if I put it on traction it makes the tires not spin but not sure how Toyota words it? Like maybe TRD is more or less in terms of a posi traction type setup like you’d find in the old cars when all these new electronics were not a thing?
You can only use crawl control in 4-low, so technically all 4 wheels do receive power, but crawl control cuts powers to certain wheels in order to figure out the best way to apply power to each wheel.
There is also All-track feature on my 2013 Tacoma TRD- Off Road 4x4. Let's say only one tire has traction, all-track will give 100% power to that single tire only. Tacoma will save the day, any day basically! Tacoma really excels in off-road conditions assuming of course you have the top of the line model.
You’ll never find more tools than in the comments section demonstrating technology like this. In any case, very cool, better than a human can do no matter how skilled (after all that’s what it’s for).
A 60's custom cj5 did that as it pulled our stuck 2wd 61' Apache out of the sand. That jeep just lifted out of the dune with us in tow to solid ground. Was pretty cool. And fortunate as we were out in the middle of fart ass nowhere in the imperial desert.
To have that setup as a demo, means that this can get out of this 100% of the time. In reality these can do much more. To the people bitching about lockers, atrac is all you need
*1.) It is up sh!t creek without a paddle.* *Schitt's Creek is a TV show playing on the saying with wordplay.* *2.) "The back wheel isn't spinning because it has no traction... Because it has all the traction."* 🤣😂🤣
I've had serious issues with my 2016 tacoma trd crawl control. 8 years of owning it and I still can't get the truck stuck in order to use it. Guess I'm gonna have to buy a domestic truck so I can get stuck
Is that fake news where's the winch cable attached to the bumper Pulling it backwards. Or is that the reason their resale is so high, And they barely ever depreciate.
I guess this would be good for someone that would bury themselves to the frame?In the 30 years of driving I’ve never needed this type of automatic nondriving helper outer button thingy.
There using the hills backwards gravity as an advantage, I would like to see this Tacoma crawl mode when it's in deep flat level sand no hill no advantage
When I shot the video I was mainly interested in the one wheel that was getting traction. All three other wheels were spinning and the system was shunting all of the power to the passenger side rear wheel
@@elonmust7470 I got stuck in mud with front a rear lockers... I didn't have the lockers engaged when I got stuck... When you turn lockers on you won't get out with tires caked in mud... You'd be lucky to have lockers even engage
Well you can't be that hard on them. Gotta figure they last at least twice as long as chevy Ford or dodge. Frame repair vrs buying new truck. And that was mostly up north all that salt I use to plow snow up there I can't think of a truck that wasn't falling apart from the salt
Its just a terrain response system. Put your vehicle in 4 low and lock the center diff. Atrac will take care of the rest. Snow won't work because it has to be powder to react similarly and it typically cakes the tire. Good tires and rocking the truck will get it out of snow.
similar concept has been done by rockcrawlers for years- without a rear locker, you trick a limited slip into thinking both rear tires have traction by setting the parking brake to drag slightly. This causes enough drag on both rear tires that an LS thinks both tires have traction, and provides power to both tires. Seems to me to be an expensive gadget that has the potential to fail and be more expensive to repair/replace.
Nope, I've got both a-trac and lockers and neither will do the same thing. Crawl control does more than just lock or send power to the wheel with traction. If that were the case then Atrac should be able dig you out the same way crawl control does but it does not. The main thing about CC is that not only do the tires sense for traction but the tires that do not have traction vibrate back and forth in a way that puts sand underneath the tire. I just witnessed thuis 4 hours ago and was blown away. It's way more than a gimmick
i would rather have rear disc brakes or a front locker than crawl control. Before anyone chimes in calling me a hater, i own a Supra and i love Toyota, i just feel like crawl control is just a neat feature.

"It takes just as much work to get it stuck"
MY WIFE: Hold my beer.
It probably would have just backed right out of that. Why didn't you simply try it in reverse at first?
My next door neighbor got his Toyota Tacoma stuck on the beach and it cost him $1500 for the tow and they just got him out in time before the tide took his truck away.
That's pretty awesome!!
How about you try this without having gravity help you? Flat instead of inclined.
Outstanding. Well done Toyota.
NICE AND RELIABLE TRUCK BESIDES THE MAINTENANCE IS CHEAP I LOVE TOYOTA TACOMA TRD AMIGOS GRINGOS
