On mine, a 70mai camera, it acts the same. Just runs like normal. So no glassbreak, no G sensor, no motion sensor.

I used to travel with a Rotopax on a motorcycle. They are the biggest pain in the ass to deal with as gas cans. Heavy, bulky, expensive, with an atrocious spout that gets more gas on the user than in the truck. Even on a motorcycle where 1 gallon was literally a 20% increase in fuel capacity, I...

Same idea as taking a lightweight cordless drill and adding a 50lb weight and 12' anchor chain to it. The whole selling point of the Softtopper is light weight with easy setup and takedown. This definitely poops all over that.

A point about why this matters. I got a call from the dealership the other day. "We noticed your truck has just over 5200 miles but hasn't been in for its 5000 mile service." Apparently in the 40 screens of fine print, somehow I agreed to share all my driving info with the lowest form of life...

This is great. I have the Dongar, but the camera I have won't work in sentry mode with their system. The system the Pro uses to provide always on power is suboptimal. Cameras are not configured to use parking mode the way the Dongar provides power when the truck is off. Their idea was...

I've been fairly content with my Softopper. The fit on the long bed is decent, but kind of mid. You take a pretty big MPG hit with the topper though. Identical weather, season, traffic, driving and I get about 20 mpg without the topper deployed and about 17 with the topper up. Kind of surprising...

What did you end up getting? Do you have an example of it?

One of these, with an Apache / Pelican clone secured with some cam buckles might do the job. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CCY8NBT7

It "remote" in the sense that if you were a garden slug, this would be the distance you could cover in 5 minutes. But for any human with legs, it's really about an 8 second walk.

Sadly its a tax by another name. The real issue will be the availability of parts, their cost, and then the increase in insurance prices that result. Auto insurance has gone parabolic, and this just adds more fuel to that. Its getting even more expensive just for day to day things.

Wondered that too. Seems like it's just random filler to pad the channel stats.

These are available if you have a subscription to TIS. Unfortunately those subscriptions are not cheap.

Mine was a little uncomfortably clunky early on. Delayed and awkward shifts in and out of 3rd gear. That has decreased significantly as I approach 5,000 miles on the truck. I had planned on doing a transmission fluid drain and fill to both check the level and get some clean fluid in there just...

This is the way.

This is excellent. Thank you. I've been looking for something exactly like this.

I think it's a risk management feature. Most of the traction control systems that are on especially the newer Toyotas are so incredibly well designed they all but make the utility of a locker pointless. Of course there's always some Bubba out there who will be like "well this one time, and this...

Don't spray a garden hose over your engine is one option. Just wipe it down with a rag and some APC.

Social media is item 885,000 on an 885,001 item list of the total data available to Toyota. The truck stores enormous amounts of data.

If this is what you're hoping, you bought way too much truck.

Never used the ignore user function before. Thanks for reminding me why it exists.
