Ontario BS Thread

the warranty claim bit is new to me. that's strick that they want that info as well...

 

Between that and charging $300+ for the sensor garnish, I'm not too surprised.

 

@llamasmurf so what tires to you run for snow wheeling?

 

Never heard of a Warranty for a bent skidplate, grill broken by a birdstrike. Snorkle broken off in the carwash...

Lol Toyota Australia is now going after knockoff suppliers... T4R Pro grills were one of the target items...

LMAO I can see why. $800 for a plastic channel... that attaches with double-sided tape: https://www.toyotaonlinepartsdepot.com/p/64917888/pz32335056.html
Cocaine probably has lower profit margins at the manufacturer level.

 

I have run everything, I ran my original BFG Rugged Trails(worst things I have ever had on my rig), then my Dad tricked me into winters before I did research and I got Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 265/70/16 not studded. They are awesome winter tires but would have been the best if I got them studded. They did alright snow wheeling but you cant air 265's down very far.

Now that my wife got a CRV for the DD, I dont put winters on my rig. It just goes snow wheeling in the winter months. I am lucky enough I get to use it as just a toy.

My Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx 255/80/R17 are the best tires I have played with in the snow. You can air them down to 6 PSI with no issues (with experience of course, not day 1). I am a huge Cooper tires fan boy since I got these.

Here is some info on snow wheeling with eye candy, I am so addicted to snow wheeling I had to make a thread about it of course

Cant freaking wait for the snow to fall this year

 

Awesome, thanks for the advice. As it happens I already have a set of Cooper S/T Maxx tires on order (should be here in October)

And thanks for the link to the winter tips!

 

Slapped my TEC sticker up in the area of my patches, looks pretty good

 

Haven't even got my truck yet and I booked my undercoating for fluid film in Sudbury, earliest is November 5th!

 

well if you miss the book. i'm sure someone where has a driveway and a sprayer to do it yourself

 

You reminded me so I just made my appointment for Corrosion Free application.

It says its good for 18 months, but I get it done every 12. I LOVE my truck and will not see rust on that bitch.

They could book me next week, I went with Tuesday Oct 13th for both my vehicles.

No driving to Sudbury for me

 

Read up on the Corrosion FREE product and changed my booking. See you there on the 13th! I happen to have that day off work.

 

Right on man, it has treated my rig amazing so far. The guys there really apply it well. They love my ARB bumper and smother it in the goodness for me

8AM is my CR-V, then I go get the taco after that

 

Alright boys we're official. Thank you all for helping me out over the past year while I was trying to make a decision!

2020 TRD Offroad.

 

Congrats man!!!!@!@!!11111



Love that color


1st mod??!@???

 

Thanks! Super excited about it, but I did compromise and go automatic...

1st mod will be LED bulb replacements!!! interior and exterior lighting is still in 2009. Still need a tonneau cover and some other practical things too.

 

I was unsure of the auto when I got it, but the wife did not know how to drive stick.

Super happy with the choice now, I love how it handles on the trails. Have become very comfortable with it.

Cuz soon as you are airing down, you are driving it almost like a standard anyway

 

Congrats on the starter's kit! Better get the credit card and Amazon registry up to speed... https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B077BT6M6Z/
