I'd love to know as well. I really don't want to be the first to try this, but am on the fence. I have been watching their R&D pics in instagram, etc. and looks like a great product. Just finally saw it officially released on their website last week and really thinking about giving it a try...

94.78% of the time brake judder (especially felt at higher speed) is from uneven pad deposition on the rotor. This most often happens when the pad gets past it's intended temp range or sometimes in new applications where brakes are not bedded well or new pads are not compatible with previous...

I had a 15' Tundra crewmax 2wd for 6 years and now have a 21' TRD Pro crewmax. The 2wd got slightly better mileage than my 21' Land Cruiser and my TRD Pro gets slightly worse gas mileage. I'd say average for my rural SC commuting would be 16.5 mpg 2wd Tundra, 15.5 mpg LC HE, and 15 mpg TRD...

I would definitely not talk you out of it. I just went through a very similar thing. Have a 21' HE and wife has a 4Runner Limited. I sold my sports car and was just looking for another 3rd car that was fun, good resale, etc. etc. I was also worried about overlap but instead of looking at...

Not sure I follow, but for me personally I know I won't be telling a story in the nursing home in 40 years about that time I sold my unique silver last year Heritage Edition V8 Land Cruiser for just enough profit to buy a nice patio grill. Hopefully I'll have some crazy trip to Moab story in...

Similar here. 21' HE in Silver with 3rd row seats and 4500 miles. Purchased in November 20' for $5k off MSRP. First vehicle I can most likely sell for a profit that I am not actively seeking to sell. I'd be stupid not to let it go for $100k but even then would probably kick myself later...

Yep....my Tundra with same engine and 6 speed auto was perfect everywhere on CC, but the 21' LC is "interesting" in programming. On 55 mph roads with decent hills it is just a joke....shifts like a drunk toddler. Its almost comical and the massive downshifts going down a hill make my wife...

I have been looking today for these numbers as well. I was looking for a Silver or Grey HE (bought a silver 21' HE in November) and it sure seems like more than 100 of each (Grey and Silver) has been available as well as more than 1200 HE in general for the 2021 production year. I hope I am...

Neither tire size nor spacers should affect alignment. If you have a good shop it is not a bad idea to get it checked however. I have found most stock alignments to be iffy at best and often can use some fine tuning if you have a good shop nearby.

Only immediate thing I did on my 21' HE was take off the roof rack. Noisy on the 30 mi highway ride home and kept me from fitting in my garage. I'll put it back on if I need to load her down for a big trip. Next on my list is tires....had the Michelin LTX M/S on my Tundra and they are really...

Interesting topic. I built a 2 door and a 4 door JK Rubicon. 35's on the 2dr and 37's on the 4dr. I'd say my LC will go anywhere I'd want to go in Colorado/Utah type area that I was going to sightsee or otherwise just enjoy the trip. The jeep is more to me for making the trip...

No mods yet, but is not even 2 weeks old yet either. Can't say it really begs for anything. If I had a sponsor to pay for it, I'd really like to do radiator/oil cooler, catless downpipe/full exhaust, and vented hood to stay cool on the track and then add some camber plates and 18"...

The 2021 Civic Type R is my new daily, and the 18' CRF250L is my tool for exploring on a nice day. CTR is a really, really fun car. Reminds me of cars from the 90's which is a good thing and is way more analog vs digital. My first 3 cars were 94' Civic Si, 94' Miata, then 94' FD Rx-7 so...

Just measured my 21' HE in a perfectly level garage floor. No mods, no extra weight, but does have roof rack removed. I have 1.5" difference from front to rear with 34.25" ground to fender front and 35.75" ground to fender rear. I might get the spacer myself if I had someone to trust...

I hated the front plate being mount being so obvious and blank so my first attempt to remedy that was to get a Japanese to Euro plate adaptor and custom make a Euro plate. Links below from what I remember on Amazon. I am still looking for a cool TRD Japanese plate with retro Toyota colors, but...
