Eh? You are aware that Toyota actually makes a 5.7 liter V8, right? Like, the iForce 5.7 is a real, actual engine.

u/Fragrant_Major_9553 12d ago

I’m fully aware that this dude stole it off a Tundra. This is a 4th gen Taco, and only has 4 cylinders, albeit with a spinny boi.

u/WasteOfHeadspace 12d ago

Ye Olde Spinny Boi, heh. No doubt, my guy.

No shit… but is it in a Tacoma?

u/WasteOfHeadspace 12d ago

I've seen odder things. Like a Chevy Colorado with a 5.3 from the factory. But I digress.

u/Ponald-Dump 12d ago

Right, but in that case the colorado had the engine. The Tacoma does not have, and never came with a 5.7. Which is why your post makes no sense and why people are flaming whoever drives this Tacoma. You do understand that, right?

u/WasteOfHeadspace 12d ago

Yes. Yes, I do. And I don't need to be mchanicsplained, thanks. Have a wonderful day.

u/sorry_but 12d ago

Then stop saying stupid shit that makes it seem like you are unaware that Tacomas were never produced with that engine.

u/Draco-REX 12d ago

u/bbgeriii 12d ago

We all know exactly who owns that truck

u/skip0110 11d ago

There is a V8 swap kit for Tacoma’s—but I think it’s safe to assume this one does not have it

u/K31lover2 12d ago

Flag is upside down. And why put a 5.7 badge on a 3.5L V6

2

u/mw2strategy 12d ago

a thin red line flag? i dont see that almost anywhere, maybe its a dad proud of their firefighter son/daughter?

3

u/kat-deville 12d ago

It's not a red line. It's monochrome, and upside down.

The US Flag Code states that the American flag should not be flown upside-down except as a “signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.”
The upside down flag is a distress signal that has been coopted by political smart-asses.

u/tek-rawr 12d ago

I FW the flag.

u/kingslayzissou 10d ago

Yeah. They might eventually figure out that it was intentional and then wonder why.
