    The trucks have this again. If the article writer had paid attention, he would have noticed he was in the red zone for too much time while he got the perfect shot for the ‘gram.

    Had no idea. Looks like they even have the incline limit (15°?) on there.

    Once you hydraulic it, Toyota will void the warranty. Just so you know. You seem like a good guy. I don't want to see you go through this same spiral down.

    This is a real phenomenon.
    We just lost a kid who was going to Borneo for 6 months to live with orangutans.
    I can’t make this shit up.

    Speaking of kids from Borneo who were raised by Orangutans...

    You are a 90s kid, and your childhood was awesome, if you know who this is!

    Are the orangutans relatives?

    The gauges go to 30 degrees, so I’m assuming that’s what Toyota allows.

    TrdPro grille, blackout badges. Pretty much stock.
    Feel for the dood. It's just shet happens sometimes. Sometimes worse than others. Suks the tech said it was water hydro locked. This should teach us all. If something happens, keep your mouth shut. Just like getting a ticket, don't say anything they can use against you. One person here was correct in having a lawyer handle it if able.
    Also, trust but verify. Like many of you, I know people in the industry. Did you know that all dealerships have, at least once, bombed an engine for not refilling the oil on an oil change? Yeah, that big black plastic container in the bay has a short or long block in there, lol. It's ridiculous but happens, lol.
    Don't let it stop you all! Enjoy! :cheers:

    P.s. Hey man, what hill was that? We need to avoid it. Lol

    I think that was a sneaky Ridgeline commercial. Someone that could quit work and travel the country camping with family would opt for a bigger truck.

    OK, so... If I recall correctly, that guy is/or was on TW. I vaguely remember coming across a thread (or posts) about him having an issue with inspection /renewing his registration, because he replaced the engine himself (not via a dealer). Because of that he could not get his smog certificate, or something like that. Just can't remember the end result.




    If anyone remembers that story, please correct me if I'm wrong, would hat to spew misinformation on here
