If there's one thing I love, it's keeping busy. Yesterday I had an off day from work and decided to go help my mom do some gardening work. She wanted to put some new soil on her garden, and who better to call on to come help her carry the bags of soil? Yeah, you guessed that right haha. It was fun and quite eventful too. We hauled over 50 bags of soil amounting to over 600 lbs using my truck. I know the Tacoma is a pretty powerful truck for jobs like this, but yesterday, I felt impressed, like it was my first time driving it. Honestly, it's been great owning this awesome truck. I've had a few trucks in the past, but so far, this has seemed to be the standout for me.

Soooooo, I just took my new Tacoma to the dealer for a check engine light that came on for the grille shutter malfunctioning, along with several other warnings on the dash. I took a photo of all the warnings that came on. My dealer has ordered I believe a whole new grille shutter assembly to fix it. I will keep you all updated on the fix, hopefully in the next week or so when the part comes in. The good news is that the vehicle was totally drivable. It just randomly came on.
