Federal law aside, your statement should be corrected to say something like your own phone, or people who don't configure them well. We don't all have poorly configured devices, some of us use the generalized vs detailed location settings, and some of us also do a good job with settings like...

FYI, It's not the Softtopper brand, but this reads like another scenario where Fas-Top designs are better. In addition to no others having the tonneau and soft top all in one, the Fas-Top front has velcro attachment to the tonneau cover. If you have the topper down or out of the bed, the velcro...

My thoughts are.... -I don't drive set in 4th gear with 91 octane except for rare moments. -I'm not seeing how these address air filters catching particles important for my varied use. -That is a lot of money, effort and time for the gains. This stuff seems way more for hobbyists or small...

Enjoy it in good health! We've had many vehicles too, and so far each Toyota has been reliable, and the company has been best we've known for standing behind and supporting the products. Let's all hope that continues.

Good to know. It is too early to tell, but in my prep for the new Yakima stuff I sold and got rid of a bunch of old stuff and it seemed they still use same high grade fasteners, and the Landing Pad kits have the right sealant and instructions. Going from their old school to current stuff really...

It broadcasts like any device for pairing, but with an admittedly quick look I did not see how the in dashboard system pairing can select a different audio output.

For any concerns about quality and utility, at this point Yakima is shipping Landing Pads for 4th gen Tacoma so one can use SkyLine towers and their 4 families of crossbars. That's also quick release. If you go that route know the instructions have a bar spread for compatibility with other...

One final round of storm and powder chasing plus ski it out into sunny and warmer weather. A day trip in mixed rain and snow to pick up a good used value on an awesome canoe - a Northwind 16 IXP with built in skid/bang plates and kneeling thwart.

As the other post said, it is in your owner's manual, but I also saw all the needed info when I was in a pre-sales mode. Toyota lays it all out in the Tacoma specs area, and they have the specific towing web page. https://www.toyota.com/toyotas-for-towing/ Some do their own solutions, but it...

LOL between summer 2024 and now. Google Maps shows the freeway trip to the dealer was 45.9 miles, and the backroads or 2 lane 55 MPH speed limit trip home was 44.8. My Tacoma was in essence meeting it when it arrived and no one else had ever driven it except for the delivery and prep. Reading...

It was not on purpose but I let it get a lot of hail damage. A smile in it was the insurance adjuster thanking me for not being like most of the pickup truck owners he'd already dealt with who take it a bit too seriously. Accidents happen.

Our daughter? My wife? There have been funny moments. Young MTB riding dudes embarrassed that chick riding fast could have been their mom. Hotel breakfasts, ski trips, a spa or pub with our daughter and the dudes realize she's with her dad.

Funny. My struggles work this way. My traditional style Jeeps were a 1947 and 1977 so fundamentally different from what the market and majority owners are now. It is rather the same for pickup trucks for a guy who mostly had and has them as work tools. Clearance lights were something that were...

Getting to two years, my pickup being work/task/tow oriented, it's been rare when premium fuel was ever felt or noticed as an advantage. I've done it mostly in high payload or towing either crossing high elevation mountains or once when towing faster had a beat the clock element. On the fuel...

Be comfy in your own skin and don't worry about others. Some vehicles can earn a reputation that doesn't fit the owner. I've sure caught that from the mix of what we've had. All I would worry about regarding the toddler and covers is airbag compatibility. We lost a family member in an accident...

Admittedly influenced by fleet and enterprise operations experience plus age I stick to a manufacturer's terms during warranty period and often beyond. Also get service performed at the dealers. It has never been any significant expense and has had times when I got coverage past warranty or the...

There are two kinds of snake oil. There was the 19th century folk remedy from actual Chinese water snakes where the chemistry made sense as pain relief. Then came the type that fools people. I'm sticking with the idea that a known brand of oil that meets an engineering specification is exactly...

My wife would not be for all of that but wants me to get something to aid loading the roof rack. I'm not an actual 4x4 hobbyist but am off road a lot in a trail builder, ski area crew and bike park steward role. I wonder if that part that sticks out might be an issue. Running boards on a loaner...

A reminder that I need to replace mine. After the problem repeated I dug in and found the culprit. The interior plug/port can use higher draw accessories. For example, a compressor I used needs a 10A fuse and doesn't blow that inside the cab.

Update: I looked at the firms covering our home/auto and umbrella, my business, and some popular carriers not mine. Mine Acuity, is much like the popular Geico, Allstate, State Farm, and Progressive. Disclosure is required for all of them. They address the modifications with CPE (custom parts &...
