Yep, the new 3rd Gen Taco has had some issues! Avoid the first year of a new model! A Tacoma is no Jeep Wrangler, but a very different vehicle and
can't do the sharp trails because of the longer overhang in the back... at least without some damage! I can carry 4 people and lots of gear easily,
thanks to the 5 ft. bed. Looking forward to the new Jeep truck!

I wasn't a big fan of these tires, but reports coming in from KO2 owners is that the tread compound is quite a bit harder, resulting in more chipping
than before.
With 23,000 miles, these KM2's have held up respectfully well over the past 2 years.

The KO got me through some muddy sections of the Rio Salada not far from the Laguna Salada, but the KM2's really responded to serious mud work back in
January when a full-size Chevy died in a mud pond.

Full day of Off Road testing
The Jeep did great on its' first full day of off road use. The only area that bothered me was the front coils dangled in their coil buckets
throughout the day. Limiting straps or a better coil would be the remedy for this.
The Rubicon Express suspension performance was stellar.
The only breakage was a CB radio antenna mount.
Happy day on the trail - Its ready for Baja!

The sound of those coil springs banging in and out of their buckets is unnerving!
