I ordered an additional wheel as my spare and they asked me for my VIN, but that was in 2020. My guess is that once the initial HE owners got what they needed they are looking to disperse the bulk of stock in HE wheels. I can't think they will sit on them long term since wheels are easily...
I think if you put it on for trips, you'll use it. The use case issue I have is that it makes no sense to have it on in a day to day basis - it really sucks gas. If you already have a RTT maybe not a big add, but otherwise might be. So, going camping or touring to a place where I know I'll...
When you go 3 hours down a rocky trail away from help, you don't want to know that your vehicle has reliability issues. If you are using the Braptor around "civilization", the reliability is more of a nuisance than life threatening. A big nuisance, but still just a nuisance. I'm knocking on...
I've had to turn around when exploring because the trail has petered out to little more than an ATV trail. This is just part of it. The LC200 guy says my friends with Wranglers made it through, the Wrangler guy says, my buddy with a modded Samurai made it through, the modded Samurai guy says...
Along this same discussion line, the GX550 is really a Land Cruiser replacement not a GX460 replacement. GX460 dimensions - 192.1" L x 74.2" W x 74.2" H. 202X Land Cruiser Dimensions - 195" L x 78" W x 74" H. GX550 dimensions 197.05" L x 83.22" W x 75.59" H (77.9" W without mirrors). I was...
Heat mitigation with dogs inside is the main reason for ceramic tint all around in my case. If I crack the shady side window the inside stays below 90 degrees in almost all conditions for at least 45 minutes and mostly stays in low 80s. We can sit down and have lunch while the dogs are...
I'm in "wait and see mode". Certainly seems to have a leg up on its competition. Unicorn maintenance is always a concern. I'll give Elon the benefit of the doubt for now.
THIS - the whole point of the airbags is to be able to adjust pressure/lift based on load, so if you are not able to manually inflate/deflate them, there is likely a remote to do that for you. If the compressor has a pressure switch (can't imagine your application doesn't) and it is cycling...
Most of the places people go camping and off-roading are subject to wind - mountains, beach, etc. I've been in regular RV parks where its been a beautiful day and the wind kicks up and everyone's awnings from cheap Winnebagos to top end Airstreams wind up looking like hang-gliding accidents...
If you are looking for Dobinson info, I would check with Mike at Exit Off Road. OP, how much rake did you end up with? Assume you used a commensurate set of front struts in the process. There should be a small amount of rake to the vehicle - stink bug or not - as you do not want to be negative...
Me too - just replaced rear pads and rotors at 65k. They were down to the metal though :oops: I have done 5 back and forths across the US towing a heavy trailer so I consider it a pretty good value how long the OEM set up lasted. Replaced front pads at 35-40k. Ordered front rotors when I did...
When using cruise in the mountains I use S6 for less hunting. As to side interference, I have noticed that cars passing can occasionally cause me to slow. I figured it was just me, but will pay more attention to it now.
I think he is referring to the infinitely more awesome Yaris GR as not coming stateside. Having said that, based on inventory - or lack thereof - the GR Corolla is not being sold here either. 😂
