What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Virtual visits certainly do have their limitations. I had a persistent cough since April 2020. I had four different sessions with my dr's office for it, only the last one with my pcp. Got a referral to a specalist in September, but in the meanwhile my wife carried me to the ER. Turns out I had anemia, a UTI, and a pulmonary nodule. No virtual visits with the drs could have picked that up. The anemia self-resolved, the UTI was cured, and the nodule is too small to worry about.

But, virtual visits absolutely have their positives. After possibly breaking a bone in my foot, a virtual visit yesterday afternoon with my new pcp's office got me an x-ray referral and the hospital was done taking pics by 6:30 pm. Tomorrow morning I go see a podiatrist.

 

Thank you Erick!

The only thing touching the hose is the UCA. As soon as the truck is on the ground, that will move up and out out the way. Here’s a picture of one on the ground:

 

I've been there a few times over the last year - zero complaints.

 

Finally got my tune taken care of. Dave @TWTaco from K&D took care of me. Went with the 91 K&D Performance tune w/ ecu update. Just driving home, damn what a difference. Lots of mods on a regular basis. First one I've figured worth mentioning here. Great guy, relatively local to me (or anyone in socal for that matter) and an awesome tune. Thanks Dave!


Unrelated side note, I had another feller here on the forum suggest I drop info on the group buy I got started for some recovery bits. I don't know if this is really the appropriate (or acceptable) place for it, but just in case, check it out. I know the folks already signed up would love to make it to the 30% mark.

Did you add an amp or just replace the head unit?

 

The oil change isn't part of the 5k service? I swear the sticker that came on the window when I bought my truck said to bring it in for a complimentary oil change at 5k.

 

Tire size is 265 70 17 and yep it's got a 3/2 lift.

 

He is even a National Guardsmen. Cool

 

Nice roll of dimes on that weld!

 

Just the head unit.

 

What HU/Link did you get, if you don’t mind me asking? Thx.

 

Nope. All they did was rotate the tires. Said oil change at 10k. I’m not real hip on that long, especially for the first few thousand miles of the engine’s life.

 

Anything brand name will sound better than factory. Myself I purchased Focal but due to cold (central Alberta Canada) it will have to wait until spring.
But anything from Pioneer, Kentwood, Alpine...even Sony will sound better. You will need speakers adapters front and rear, look this guys up https://www.sonicelectronix.com/

 

I got my 1st oil change at 8500klms although Toyota Canada said the 1st one was suppose to be at 10000klms. My response was that I was going on a long trip and I would be over the 10000klms 1/2 way through the trip, so they changed it anyway.

 

It’s a Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX. It works pretty well for me. Not earth shattering sound or anything, but a huge upgrade over stock in sound. Not to mention features. I used the Maestro link.

 

Frankly, I wasn’t going to raise hell over it. They go by what the book says, and that’s fine. I’ll at least take a tire rotation out of the deal. At the end of the 25k free service, I’ll go to the same 6-7k oil change/tire rotation interval I’ve run for years. I don’t get 5000 mile tire rotations, frankly.

 

Awesome. Thx. I’ll chk it out.

 

Yeah, based on your symptoms that you presented with those test could be ordered virtually and carried out on your own accord. If the practitioner is good and knows what they are doing. But when you go into the ER you get everything done
So sometimes it’s a catchall. Glad you are getting it taken care of

 

I learned that I had no idea how to drop the spare tire or where the jack points were. That is no longer a prob.

Also leaned that these rear tires didn’t have nearly the same amount of tread as the front.

 

I'm going to 6000 miles oil change and tire rotation too. That served me well on my old Liberty, I'm sure it be fine here too.
