    They don't.

    I had built a relationship with my dealer's inventory manager ahead of the '16 line starting up, so that when they were able to start ordering I already had my truck picked out. The inventory manager simply requested Toyota change one of the dealer allotments to my specific wants, which they did. Hardest part was waiting 4 months for it to queue up in the assembly line - they only make DCLBs on certain days, let alone TRDs with all the goodies.

    It was a looong wait but worth it!

    Which options are out there for a home-link garage opener for the 3rd gen? Any ideas or pics?

    Thanks

    There is a gentex homelink mirror. I think it's in the $300 range.

    Installed the GP Thunder front directional bulbs and like the results. No amber reflection. Thanks for the Tip! @MrBrooks

    Yup. Mostly try to work in that realm after leaving a senior corporate role a few years ago. My services are appropriately compensated in that world. Facilities, pipelines...

    It's lots of fun, you get to see some amazing places and work with some interesting people. Half the battle is keeping the crayons away from the welders. :welder:

    I'll take my chances. I glance at the credit card charges a couple times a week to make sure there's no unauthorized purchases. Had it happen one time, closed the account, new card was here in a day. You're not liable for purchases you didn't make, do you're not out anything. Doesn't bother me one bit. I do always make sure nothing looks off before sliding however.

    Yep, your credit card company has you covered. No reason at all to not use one at the pump. Now your DEBIT card, on the other hand... BIG no-no.

    Alright doll-face, c'mon and bore me!
    If one absolutely must have a debit card for some reason (like our town's post office would only take debit, not credit, cards for a while), get a separate checking account for the card and transfer funds into it as needed. It's a way of limiting your loss if something goes wrong.

    IMO the only thing a debit card should be used for is withdrawing cash from an ATM located INSIDE a bank. Any device with outside access can be compromised.
