Oh hey guys, what you talking about in here?

The adaptive cruise in the Taco is GOD AWFUL. Not to mention every time I want to turn cruise control on without adaptive cruise, I have to go through the extra step to turn it off every. damn. time.Can confirm--not interested in the slightest. Similarly, I hate the adaptive cruise control in my Taco.
All it does is ride the brakes, it’s really really bad. Like you mentioned, huge fan of having to hold the CC button for 6 minutes to get to the real cruise control.The adaptive cruise in the Taco is GOD AWFUL.

Yea it's a terrible system, just like the Taco's "auto high-beam headlights" that flicker on and off constantly if there's a shiny leaf on the side of the road. I've just realized that I've turned all 3 of these driver assist features off since I got it. Auto high-beam, lane-departure warning, and adaptive cruise. They all suck on the Taco.All it does is ride the brakes, it’s really really bad. Like you mentioned, huge fan of having to hold the CC button for 6 minutes to get to the real cruise control.
I was such a dumbass and completely missed the lane departure button on the wheel until my second or third week with it lol.Yea it's a terrible system, just like the Taco's "auto high-beam headlights" that flicker on and off constantly if there's a shiny leaf on the side of the road.

Lol! I really tried to leave it on and use it, but I felt like it didn't go off when it should, and it did go off when it shouldn't. The tech on the Taco has just been subpar for me.I was such a dumbass and completely missed the lane departure button on the wheel until my second or third week with it lol.
Yup. Other than CarPlay I don’t use any of it tbh.Lol! I really tried to leave it on and use it, but I felt like it didn't go off when it should, and it did go off when it shouldn't. The tech on the Taco has just been subpar for me.
I have the 2019, so no CarPlay... I'm on my second aftermarket head-unit and still completely unhappy. Can't wait to put the stock headunit back in it and kiss the whole thing goodbye.Yup. Other than CarPlay I don’t use any of it tbh.
At least we got incredible resale value out of it!I have the 2019, so no CarPlay... I'm on my second aftermarket head-unit and still completely unhappy. Can't wait to put the stock headunit back in it and kiss the whole thing goodbye.
True that! If anyone here is looking to buy a Diamondback with a FrontRunner rack system (for a Roof-Top Tent) pre-installed, hmu!At least we got incredible resale value out of it!
I wish I could turn it off in my Denali. Some of these companies need to NOT do the adaptive cruise until they hire some people that know what they are doing.The adaptive cruise in the Taco is GOD AWFUL.

Surprisingly in the Taco I've almost forgotten there's auto-braking. That's the one thing I don't think I've had a problem with but one time. Used to have a 2015 Mercedes that would auto-brake in the middle of the road with nobody around, great for a surprise heart attack on a long trip!I wish I could turn it off in my Denali.

I see the usefulness of these systems. But, I think they cause me more trouble than help me. I had to laugh one time. This car was turning. But, he was far enough ahead that I really didn’t need to adjust my speed. The vehicle freaks out auto slamming the brakes making my wife’s open drink go all over her. She was so pissed.
