Are you running dedicated winter tires? If so, I'd love to hear what your favorite winter tire is and which tires you have tried. I'm still shopping. Still haven't made a decision. My top 3 are Nokian LT3, Nokian R5, and Blizzak LT. They each have completely different designs, and not much...

The story: I dropped by the local dealer to buy a set of TPMS sensors. I bought wheels for winter tires, so need 4 new sensors. The parts guy said sensors are $94 each. I was a bit surprsed, and said I thought I saw someone charging $62/ sensor online for OEM. The guy was like, "I don't...

I just realized that the built in compass is about 60 degrees off! I thought I was driving North, but it turns out I was actually driving west... That explains why I never hit the highway that was just a few miles north of me! Has anyone seen a way to calibrate? Or how does it detect...

I feel like I'm trying to solve a puzzle! Winter is coming and I want to decide on a tire plan/ strategy before I commit to a tire size. There are a few moving parts. 1) How important is the diameter of the spare tire? If I am switching between two different tire diameters, what size spare...

On my SR5, 4x4, I think a true limited slip differential (LSD) would be a big upgrade. But I don't see anyone talking about it. Everybody wants lockers, but for me, a LSD is far more practical. Especially for driving in wet roads, winter roads that are 99% clear, or turning down a gravel road...

I just figured this out and wanted to post in case it helps someone. I have the JBL sound system with the removable center channel in the dash. Initially it sounded good for detail and audio clarity, but I quickly came to dislike the mono center channel thing. Most of the audio is coming from...

Has anyone measured the maximum up travel and down travel of the front suspension with springs removed? I haven't found any numbers online, and I haven't torn my truck apart yet... I'd like to know if stock ride height is 50/50 up/down travel? On my SR5, the control arms and CV shafts are...

As the title states, are there any tools you use to find scenic or minimal use roads? I live in Southern Minnesota. We don't have any proper offroading trails for full size vehicles. There are some ATV/ UTV trails, but they are mostly far away up north. But we do have gravel roads. I've...

As the title says, big pizza cutter wheels on a Gen4? As far as a "no cut" fitment, what works? I've seen a lot of videos saying 33" tires, typically 285 width with a +25mm offset, will fit without trimming. So I'm optimistic that a narrower 34" tire, on the stock wheels (~+60mm offset) will...
