    Driving with Side-mirror Folded

    Do you really want corporate nannies babysitting every driver? I wouldn't want my car to be disabled because the mirror got damaged or needed to be folded in for some random reason. The main reason that instantly comes to mind is driving it through a car wash... I always fold them in to drive...

    (Rear) Dashcam Wiring

    In my Venza, I installed it on the plastic housing, but I haven't looked at the LC to see how that might work. I do like the magnet idea though...

    (Rear) Dashcam Wiring

    I haven't done my LC, but on my Toyota Venza, I popped off the panels on the hatch and dropped the headliner just enough to fit my hand in. Then I ran the wire through the rubber "tube" along with factory wiring... That was super tight and took quite a while longer than I thought it would, but...

    Deep Paint Scratch

    We had a similar issue on ours, we asked the dealer to fix it and I wish we hadn't... It looks worse now than it did before they tried to repair it... I'd highly recommend a reputable body shop that can repair it. They might be able to work with the dealer for reimbursement.

    Hello from Northeast TN

    Well, this wasn't really an introduction post as much as it was the first post in the new Regional Forum Section. ;)

    Hello from Northeast TN

    Howdy all, I'm from the Johnson City/Bristol corner of Tennessee. :) EDIT: This isn't meant to be a "I'm new to the forum post", just the first post in the newly added Regional Forum section. ;)

    26 mpg with 35” tires!!

    In my experience with multiple Toyota vehicles, the onboard computer guesstimated MPG is never accurate... I rely on the old fashion method using the Fuelly App, cost is $7.99/year and totally worth every penny plus some.

    KO3's!!!

    When we ran KO2's on our Jeeps, we always ran them at 37psi, seemed to work the best. :) Not sure about the LC, but they are good tires.

    It all boils down to range anxiety.

    The Distance to Empty will gradually update based on your average MPG. :) The better MPG you get, the bigger the DTE number gets.

    What's your car journey that got you here?

    Well, I don't think I could possibly list them all, but here are a few... I think I've owned around 60+ vehicles... These are not in ownership order... I may be off a year or two on a couple of these, but this list is pretty accurate as far as the ones I can easily recall. 1981 Oldsmobile...

    Extended Warranty

    Our dealer sold us a Bumper-to-Bumper 100k with $0 deductible for $1,000... Afterwards he admitted he sold it too cheap, but he did manage to sneak in 2 other contracts which we caught and got cancelled... Just waiting on the refund on those...

    Thoughts on Driver Attention Function?

    I use the ACC on pretty much every road/highway (in the LC & the Venza)... My wife on the other hand is anti-cruise control. LOL This is primarily her vehicle, and due to some of her health conditions, we opted to leave the LDA on all the time just to be safe, but it annoys me to no end when I...

    Thoughts on Driver Attention Function?

    I think it's more that as a vehicle operator, we want to be able to actually operate the vehicle... I can think of plenty of situations where they driver attention thing is more annoying than useful (which is why I disabled it)... As for the braking, I do kind of like that for the cruise control...

    Toyita forgot a light for rear Cargo Area??

    RetailMeNot has some coupons, like $15 off of $60, not sure what all would work, but might be worth trying them?

    AUX switches?

    If you get a Jeep with a trailer tow package, it also includes 4 Auxiliary switches beside the Locker switches. :) (Lower center dash)

    Toyita forgot a light for rear Cargo Area??

    I can vouch that these work amazingly well for a Jeep, not sure how they would attach or wire into a LC?

    Does anyone actually get the posted 22/24 mpg?

    I have yet to figure out how to reset the trip odometer... I can reset the average trip mileage, etc., but where is the Trip A/B reset? LOL

    Does anyone actually get the posted 22/24 mpg?

    Nope, stock wheels/tires, same with Venza... I've never owned a vehicle, Toyota or otherwise, that has ever gotten the gas mileage the onboard computer claimed. And that list includes 5 brand new Jeep Wranglers, 5 Toyota Prius, Toyota Rav4 Hybrid, Ford Fusion Hybrid, Ford Explorer, etc. And I...

    Does anyone actually get the posted 22/24 mpg?

    If you are basing your fuel mileage off of the onboard computer guesstimate, then your assumed mileage is NOT accurate... You need to manually calculate it every time you fill up. I use Fuelly which does a fantastic job of keeping track of mileage. Look at the last 5-10 fill-up average to get an...
