A Good Safety Measure From Toyota. In My Opinion

One of the few mistakes some new owners do make, is not kmwoing how to differentiate a 3rd Gen OEM steps from that of a 4th Gen. There isn't much of a difference but the little difference there is, makes the 3rd Gen steps not compatible with a 4th Gen Tacoma. For 3rd Gen steps, the rail mounts horizontally to the ground. The steps for 24+ are angled to the rocker panel and the steps are mounted to the bottom rail with plastic side covers. Shared a photo of both the 3rd Gen side steps and that of a 4th Gen so owners can be able to spot and tell the difference. 3rd Gen 4th Gen

One thing I've noticed about my Tacoma is that there are a couple of functions, such as cruise control, that don't seem to work when your seatbelts are unbuckled.

A safety procedure from Toyota that sits well with me, honestly. We've seen how some drivers feel the seatbelt isn't a necessary safety precaution to take as long as you consider yourself a really good driver.

The only thing I can say in situations like that is, you can never be too careful out there. It's better to be safe than sorry, that's for sure.
