After purchasing the 2007 Tacoma I noticed the miles were starting to pile up in a hurry. By checking the mile markers on the highway I found that for every 10 miles I drove the odometer read 13.8. As this was going to make a significant reduction in warranty mileage, I contacted the Toyota dealership. I was told in no uncertain terms that a 3-4 mile variation in speedometer reading was acceptable. Acceptable to whom? After several attempts to have the speedometer recalibrated(flashed) I finally gave up and out of pocket had a new set of bigger circumference tires installed. Toyota offered no help whatsoever. This cured the problem. I just wondered if anyone else has had this particular problem and if it my be common in the Tacoma.
