    Escape Gear Seat Covers for 200

    My 2nd row covers look like yours....with the velcro acess points/ flaps to get at the LATCH points for securing car seats and booster seats. My kids are past the booster seat phase, so I'd rather not have those flaps because they are always getting out of place.

    How to disable smart key unlocking

    I can vouch for those. I used one this summer on a long road trip and they work fine.

    annoying things after 7mos and 3500miles on my 21HE

    Compact CZ's and similar fit well in top console section on HE's when on long road trips. But don't leave them unattended when you are away from the vehicle.

    New 200 owner - What preventative things to do while it is still brand new?

    Same. Find a shop that's got someone who has experience with installing xpel on 200's.

    Talk me out of a 4Runner TRD Pro

    Coming from a 4th gen v8 4runner that I've had for 18 years, I test drove the 5th gen 4runner with the v6 a year or so ago. The v6 4runner felt like a slow dog, but not quite as bad as Tacoma. That might be o.k. for flat landers, but I don't want a slow dog with no get up and go for driving...

    $87k tradein value for an '21 LC?

    The dealer I bought my '21 H.E. from in December at msrp is now leaving vm and texts about wanting to buy it back. First off, they must not realize that I'm three states away. I was tempted to throw out a sky high number, but I probably still wouldn't sell it. I'm slowly working on...

    Anyone rear ended lately? Need a tip

    You guys are reminding me why I've been running a hitch on my 4Runner for 19 years and need to put one on the 200. It works great as a battering ram when someone rear ends you at a light or on I-5 in stop and go traffic. It does wonders...pops a hole in the offenders radiator,and no insurance...

    Escape Gear Dash and Trans covers - pics/feedback?

    I'll have to see how my dash cover fits. They didn't do a cut out on my dash cover for the center speaker, which I'm o.k. with, since I don't plant to use the dash cover for 90% of the driving time.

    Mule did that Cruiser mod. I thought I remembered seeing photos of it, or something very similar on their fb page a while ago. Sure enough...January 12, 2021.

    Escape Gear Dash and Trans covers - pics/feedback?

    Cross country drive...which vehicle do you take?

    No doubt. People drive bat s*** crazy all the time around the Seattle area and on I-5 down to Portland, but it's pretty boring drive heading east on I-90 once you get a little bit east of Snoqualmie Pass.

    Cross country drive...which vehicle do you take?

    Having done that cross country I-90 / I-94 drive back to Minneapolis and Chicago before in summer and also in middle of winter, I'd take the RAV 4 for summertime drive in decent weather. The drive is boring as hell, nothing out there, once you cross over the northern Rockies all the way until...

    Escape Gear Seat Covers, 2nd Row issue

    You should have ordered the dash cover when you ordered the seat covers. Equipt's website wasn't calculating the shipping right when I added the dash cover to the cart, but a few emails back and forth got it sorted out.
