1998 Cruiser with 253,746 miles. Changed timing belt, WP, Fan housing bracket, spark plugs and full service oil change. Next up, tie rod ends and maybe upper control arms. Timing belt showed excessive wear but going by the hand printed sticker in the top cover, the previous belt had 100k miles on it. From the appearance, it looks like it had 253k miles on it. Severely cracked and I’ve changed a ton of belts never seeing one in this shape. Anyway, all good now.

Solved this issue in my truck by getting a new OEM gas cap... hope it’s that easy for you (Mine was intermittent as well). Also check into taping around the seams of body panels around the filler neck. Good thread on that somewhere here.
Did you get CarPlay or Android Auto working with it?
Thanks @MDK will sure take your recommendations.
No secret really, step one is to soften the hard dirt accumulated over months or maybe years of use, and that is using PB Blaster. Once dirt is wiped off completely using a Microfiber, I then use a degreaser spray to remove dirt residue.
I may have some oem uca’s w only 10-15k miles on them. if you’re interesTed I can search through my garage...
What tint is that 5%? Did you go same for front and rear.
Yup 5% all around!
It's too dark at night though, might go back and get it redone to 20%.
Thanks, Jram100! I'm not sure my uca's are bad, just suspect. Ball joints don't show that they are bad but the bushings, frame side, look like they may be out of wack. I can easily move frame side, with a crowbar, uca's back and forth but not as easy towards the wheel. If that means they need replaced, I'd like to know what you would be asking for yours as well as shipping to Arkansas...
Car Play on Apple connects wirelessly through bluetooth and automatically if you want - you can switch that off though in settings. Zlink it uses, a tad slow to boot up around about 8 seconds or so. Pretty nice though, does everything also utilises the full screen. GUI - good
Android Auto I believe needs to be connected with cable to USB, not sure if you can buy aftermarket wireless connectors, would need to check or ask.
It does appear to pair Android phone with bluetooth though, I think it just does phone calls and sync contacts , probably plays music and everything etc.
did a quick overnighter to test out the ironman Awning room tent. Great tent, like that the floor completely zips off (makes clean up easier), there is really easy access to the rear door of the car and the front flap make for it's own awning with rope or extra poles. It feels so big, 8.5x8.5 feet with straight walls and 6.5 height

Replaced a coolant temp sensor. Old one fell apart as I took it off.
May be worth checking into on your high mileage (mines 235k) hundy.

Replaced spark plugs and ordered Coils to replace for pm. The coils looked great except #7 ds at the rear. Swapped it to #1 and will definitely replace this one.
RIP Tilley. 
Oh no.. What happened?

Looks like you need to do the spare tire mod and get it tucked up a little higher.

100 - Serries coolant temperature sensor location
I searched and could not find the answer to this, so here is a picture of the location. Find where you put in the thermostat and follow the pipe straight back and the sensor is the first one you come to with the green top. You will need a 19mm deep socket, which is the type of socket you use to...
