    Because you starved to death waiting for useful software other than audio/video or a web browser.

    The default setting is suppose to be on, mine must be off. Dealer I hope will set this for free since it is a Dealer set option.

    Make sure your dome lights are set to the middle function, for when the doors are open; not on, and not off, but in between for automatic.

    Your right, it's just relearning how to do things on it. Had it a year now and wish I did it years ago, but work PC's were all Windows so that is what I used 99% of the time. Miss some of my programs that only run on Windows though, so my old work PC is still running them.

    Just got back from the service department at Servco Toyota on Oahu. I have item # 7 of known to be an issue from the factory to the point where the rear driver side window sill is falling off when the window is rolled down. Had them look at it and they said they can only order the bad one even though it was apparent the passenger side was about to go as well. I convinced them that, they can solve this problem in one stop instead of me bringing it back again when the weather strip actually falls off. Said the lead time is about 3 weeks and scheduled an appointment for April 1st. Hoping it's all covered under warranty as it should be.

    Mine is sketchy at best. If I walk up slow or muck around it will turn on, walk straight to the truck and nada.

    So after some searching, I couldn't find definite information. I figured this might be the place to ask:

    Can you customize the text messages from Entune? I've played with it, but all i could find is to 'Reset to default' which leads me to believe they can somehow be customized...

    You can dual boot your MAC and run Windows on it. I have to use Windows at work and glad I don't at home.
