Hi, Mr. Max:
I have driven all my life in cars and trucks with manual transmissions and have never liked the automatic.
I have a 24 Trailhunter, and, of course, I downshift it all the time, and it makes me happy.
Now, I am an idiot when it comes to mechanics, and you seem to be a knowledgeable...
I have been looking for the voltage display and have not been able to find it.
So, now you know I am no good at this.
I do have some stuff to add.
From reading other folk discus the hybrid charging system with no alternator.
These is what I understand about it but double check my data to be...
Thank you. It really sucks having to do all this, but that is the reality of it. My TH is in Austin, and it does not fit in the garage, so, I have +70K candy sitting on the driveway. The Mexican border is 190 miles away, and after they cross it it's goodbye forever. Insurance will not pay to buy...
Thanks for this, great record keeping.
This is more proof of the problem . A marriage of a hungry power train and a small tank.
I honestly do not think that a replacement tank will ever arrive and that we will have to use portable tanks forever.
Otherwise it is a great truck.
Hello:
I have the same truck as you and am very happy I got it. I am not as ambitious as you and have only made small mods, but I did remove the roof rack. It was done at the dealership after I threatened to cancel the order unless they took off the $1500 roof rack. They did, but left the 4...
Ok,now I see what you are doing.
My knowledge of bateries is not great but it was aquired during my 9 years on a sailboat with my wife during which time we put 45690 miles and a circumnavigation.
I had a generator and never used the boat's engine for charging.
Based on that experience, I feel...
Before commenting on your post and to avoid misunderstandings, I want to add the following:
I do not know what you are doing, and I do not know what the acronyms you use mean. Still, I own a Trailhunter. It has close to 6000 miles now but, when it only had 340, I decided to take a long trip...
paint correction – clear protective film (clear with black roof)- ceramic coating
Would you mind letting us know the price and where you have it done?
I am considering that myself but have not found a reputable place yet (Austin,TX)
Thanks
Wonderful update GWN, love to hear from fellow Canadians.
Ths is exactly what this thread needs, adding force to the undisputable fact: Toyota screwed up on the tank.
Lets try and keep this up, lets sign in for the poss tank by Longrange america and, in short: Keep on Bitching!!!!!
Well Mr.Harry, you are correct, hardly anyone has addressed the tank issue, which was the reason I started this thread.
It is irrelevant how I drive or how fast you go, the point is TH has a small 18.2 gal tank, its mileage is way below advertised, and there is no space down there to add an...
Hello Mr. Taco and thanks for the advice
On this matter, I am ignorant.
I do like, and benefit from, engine noise; Like another person here says, the machine talks to you and you should listen.
But, these days with everything digital, I would not know what to do if I heard a change.
I will order...
I have a 24 Trailhunter with no alternator, I have never had a battery problem.
In Jan I left the country for 2 1/4 months and went to the garage, and it started in 1 sec flat.
Any problem with starting after a few weeks should be investigated since it is not supposed to happen
