    I was not intending to show my truck at this cars and coffee earlier today, but with the Christmas lights on it, it was an instant hit and the guy running the event took pictures for his Facebook page (these are pictures I took myself)...

    The Toyota dealer called and said my frame is in; I was told it could take until January for it to arrive and didn't order the Bilsteins I wanted yet. Service guy at dealer is telling me it is a bad idea to leave the frame outside for this long...

    What do I do?!?!

    Hmm . . . none as yet, that's why i'm here . . .
    Have them do the frame then take ur time with what suspension you want.
    Then find a good local garage if you cant do the work. Enjoy.

    My new frame came in earlier than expected, and my local dealer put me in a 2022 Camry as a loaner; One thing I just realized is that the car does not seem to have the little lights in the side view mirrors that come on when someone is in my blind spot...

    I remember reading that some
    BMWs are leaving the factory without certain technology due to the chip shortage; Are some Toyotas not getting certain options or is only standard on higher-end Camrys?

    But it doesn't seem very basic; It has cloth seats and no sunroof, but it also has alloy wheels and a power seat...

    But it clearly does not have the blind spot warning light...
