    Simple storage solutions for “trunk”

    Do either of you recall if it is the large or extra large version that works with 3rd row?

    What have you done to your 200 Series this week?

    With the stock 2013 wheels it is pretty easy to reach through the gap and unscrew the valve cap on the spare without having to lower it. When I raise the spare, I make sure the valve stem is close to the rear of the truck and that way I can check the pressure and top off the air without lowering.

    Congrats ! Does that truck have a lift on it or just the angle of the picture?

    In 2024, is it still worth considering very low mileage 2008 to 2010 LX 570?

    Definately not worth it at all. Waste of $$. Go ahead and send me links to those low mile LX’s. I’ll make sure they aren’t available for anyone else to waste their hard earned money on, haha 😆. I like the earlier LX better than the more recent redesigns. And the tech in a 2010 LX is still...

    Pevious LX guy(Current GX) Thinking of coming back- input request.

    I have a 2013 LC and it is just right for me size wise. 3rd row comes handy but not used frequently. Enough cargo space without being a pain to park. Can tow my cargo trailer fine or anything else not requiring a HD truck. Does just fine getting to fishing spots or ski lifts. It checks all the...

    How I grease my front driveshaft

    I have been using this in both u-joints and drive shaft for the last 6 years with no issues to report on my 2013 LC Edit - I am so lazy, I even slather a little on my KDSS valve screws while I’m under there instead of using 3 different grease products 😂

    Chains for our trucks 285/50R20

    I have Z-583 and have test fit them in the snow with KO2’s (LT285-70R17). Tension is not really an issue for casual use, just follow the directions. I would not recommend for extended use over many miles, but that is how I feel about any cable chain, even those with tensioner. I keep them in the...

    Need Opinions - 570 wrecked at dealer

    The comments for keeping off of Carfax and out of the service records is why buying a used vehicle is so sketchy for me these days. FWIW, I purchased my Toyota CPO used LC with a documented minor accident (no structure damage or airbags), same with my wife’s X5. Got good deals on good vehicles...

    Owners opinions that had trucks..

    This is the correct answer, LOL 😂

    Owners opinions that had trucks..

    For me, the only thing a truck does better than a utility trailer is haul bikes, kayaks, etc. Using a trailer and parking at a trail head or drop off spot is not ideal. Otherwise, utility trailer all the way.

    What have you done to your 200 Series this week?

    I do get that, the rear handle grab is my go to. On my 2013 LC it is only available to change this option with Techstream which is easy enough to access with the right cable/dongle

    What have you done to your 200 Series this week?

    I don’t like the all door unlock and disable it on any car driven by my wife. Too easy for someone to follow a person in parking lot or public garage and get in while they are distracted. Just my 2 cents.

    Puzzling that the dry ice guy gets the boot but FNHWheels can post about products on the wheel/tire thread. Seems kinda selective

    BFG KO3 vs DEFENDER LTX M/S2 on RW

    I have had 1 previous set of KO2s in load C and current in load E and feel zero difference in daily on-road driving (stock suspension) between them. I hear many people comment they can tell the difference but they feel the same to me.
