What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Installed some bull bar and roof rack lights.

 

It’s called ‘poetic license’ wise guy. And my nails are fine. Always keep them cut short and strong in case of emergencies.

 

No clue. I think I checked but didn’t log it. They are SL’s so not very tall. Mostly highway miles. Last 5k or so started feeling slippery taking off on wet pavement but otherwise excellent traction and quiet ride still

 

I like that you mention can charge wen the vehicle is off, what did you run this to for install? was it easy? got a link?

 

Had been looking at new wheels and tires for my son’s ‘20 SR5. Decided to go with the Toyota SR5 special edition wheels in black and he wanted Falken Wildpeaks AT4W, stayed stock 265/70/16. He’s very happy with and I think looks great.
Just for FYI
Local dealer wanted approx $2000 for wheels, center caps and black lugs. I had used Lewis Toyota in Topeka Kansas last year when I purchased my Pro with the Black Friday sale and bought a bunch of items for good deal. Called them on this, $800 for all including shipping. Dealt with Hunter.
Tires, used All Weather Tire Pros in Huntington NY, I believe great deal, fast and great customer service. Dealt with owner Jimmy Sr. I’m no expert but tires seemed to balance well, and no issues with highway speeds.

 

Changed to interior LED's as well as rear plate lights.

 

that’s been my experience here in central pa for the past 50 years, those vehicles that get winter use, then stored in a heated garage typically see salt corrosion sooner than those left out in freezing weather over many winters.

 

Got my shoes rotated. Was tempted to pay $81 (+ 7% government-overreach) for one-piece lugs to replace the OEM 2-piece lugs. I watched a DT technician who had a full shop of tools take 30 minutes to remove just one of the two-piece lugs from my Corolla when the outer-part broke from the inner part.

 

Those poor bastards are under paid. I know they are not all master techs but damn, in the summer when it’s hot as hell here in NC, forget about it!

 

Warm, cold, doesn't matter. It's the water that dissolves the salt. The resulting solution is what causes the severe corrosion. If you don't use enough water to wash the salt away, you'll have problems. Heated garages keep the vehicle damp longer.

 

Went with Falken Wildpeak AT/4W and one size up at 265/75R16.

 

Been there, got that t shirt... Defiantly need to replace them, they suck... a few manufactures have had a lot of problems with those pieces of shit lug nuts...

 

not trying to ruffles your feathers but in all my life i have never heard of or seen someone let air out of a tire with their fingernail

 

LOL I’ve done it in a pinch. Whatever works bruh. I also opened a beer bottle with my teeth but that was back in my past life.

 

rookies, you need onboard air.

 

I wasn’t airing down to go out onto the beach or trail. I just wanted to get PSI down into the 30’s range for the 15 mile trip home. I’ve been doing it that way since I was a kid on bicycle, mini-bikes etc. . Keep the comments coming, I’ve grown to (mostly) get a chuckle out of them.

 

most caps have nipples for letting air out......been around since 1880

 

nipples

 

With RIXXY, it does not take long to get into weird places ...
