^^^ This. Right now I would not buy any car or truck newer than 2020. Most of the trucks including Toyota have either engine or transmission design or manufacturing issues. The cars are dangerous maintenance wise since they replaced the whole dash with the nav/head unit electronics assy. Anything goes wrong and it costs $4k r replace everything. I believe this head unit issue affects trucks as well.


I think I posted my story on here about my 2018 Ram 1500. The touch screen was going out and randomly pressing buttons. It doesn't sound like a big deal until you understand that that screen controlled all kinds of stuff on the truck including the HVAC system. The dealer in Fort payne wanted $3000 to fix it. I'm like, "F*&%k that!"

I bought a new screen on Amazon for $129, took the dash apart and replaced it in about 30 minutes.

There's a reason people call them "Stealerships."
