Thanks for the vote of confidence! I’d planned to check out Canyon Creek as it’s a short walk for me, but if that fails, South Point is about my next closest to try.

Thank you! I might need a bit of luck to properly evaluate this time around. I have to agree with you on resale for sure. & while I don’t plan to resale, that really does go to show just how long term durable & desirable Toyotas are. I’m also fortunate to have all the time I need to evaluate...

I like your logic & way of thinking. i did notice though that the 12V starter is also used in temps below 5F. That’s too often here. But I agree, realistically even if it was used at every stoplight on your commute (where the cold would likely disable the auto start/stop anyways) you’re still...

Wow you have incredible patience for Fords! If I had half the problems I wouldn’t consider another. Thanks for taking the time to share your story, as I contemplate what to do for me. I’ve had rock solid reliable Fords of all eras from 89 to present in the 2000s to today. So when I had so...

I didn’t catch the part about the relays. I did see the starter life though. 384,000 starting events. I wonder what that translates to in an expected service life? The last time I had to replace a starter in a vehicle it was a 90s Chevy truck that was about 9 years old at that point. Could...

You must’ve enjoyed the Rangers to have 3 in a row at least up until the point where Ford couldn’t fix the last one. Were the first 2 pretty problem free? The Ranger is on my shortlist to check out. Particularly if i decide I still like Ford, as ford offers nothing in a fixed roof midsize non...

Thanks for your comparison. That is about what I thought. Being able to remove the top entails compromises in just about every other way. Given I expect to drive it everywhere, I think the LC would be a better upgrade path if I go check one out in person. I’d love a Bronco 6G if I could have...

I couldn’t help but take the pic when she was the cause of the watch warning! 🤣 🤣 🤣

All newer 6G Broncos? How does the LC compare?

https://www.landcruiserforum.com/threads/jumping-over-from-the-tacoma-4g-forum.1860/#post-26502 Not a LC, but a 4G Taco. Saw this thread here & on their forum too. With video, but gives a good idea of what you could expect to walk away from with a TGNA-F platform vehicle. Much better than a...

I already love the trail dust color. If I go that route, now I know Barney would have to be the name.

It can come up automatically to warn you of loud events. For example when the neighbors get an Amazon delivery…

The app should be part of your normal watch ones & is just called Noise.

Mine is just my initials. I hate coming up with names & find it pointless to bust my non-creative brain to come up with something cryptic when I’m on every FB group with my real name. So nothing too fun here.

How did you like the Rivian? They at least look like a ‘normal’ truck to me & not entirely unattractive unlike another. They seem to be the truck truck people like if they’re going electric. I think the hybrid makes better sense nowadays with our grid & charging infrastructure the way it is...

Welcome! Curious to hear your thoughts on how it compares to the Bronco. That would be the normal upgrade path for me, but it just seems that everything is a compromise for the removable roof & cool look. It might be an improvement on the wrangler, but not to the level of the LC for long...

Thanks for posting this! I now know that temp units can be in F with distance units in kms. I’m one of those weird people who needs kms here of course, but use as little metric as possible. So my Fords I can set temp units to F & leave them there. While switching distance units to miles when...

Learned something new today. Here I didn’t think you’d have to jump start a hybrid car as it has a giant reserve battery which is what I thought started the engine. Guess that’s totally separate from the starting circuit then.

Love Spokane into N.Idaho, beautiful part of the world!

Now that is awesome!

Wish you all the best with the LC! I saw your totaled Taco over on their forums. Curious to hear your comparison between the two once you’ve got some time behind the wheel of this one.

Thanks! That makes it seem like a worthwhile mod

I’m curious now too after seeing this thread. It looks like it just plugs into either the 4 or 7 pin. So could be used on any car. Is the light, the reverse at least, just extra indication? Or does it actually provide some light behind you for seeing with the backup camera?

https://www.landcruiserforum.com/threads/head-up-display.1436/#post-20486 I thought I’d remembered reading that you could play with alignment from the menus.

Haha! Years ago on a road trip to Oregon I pulled in for gas. Of course the gas station promised full serve. So I waited for a while, but it was busy. So I did what anyone else on the rest of the continent would do. I got out & started pumping my own gas… I’ve never seen a gas jockey move...

I can’t imagine Toyota won’t adjust build %, subject to parts availability, to increase OT/OT+ sales. That’s the GX I’d be interested in as well. They’re just not on the ground here yet. Interesting actually that there’s apparently an untapped market for a luxury brand off roader. Nobody...
