    My '99 was simply awesome in the snow with no weight. Might be a difference between a manual and auto. :notsure: my 2nd gen is pretty good even as an auto. Better tires and it would be really good.

    Some flags and center console divider... lots of things on the wanted list.
    Maybe now that I have an auto it may be different? This is the first auto 4wd vehicle I have had. All manuals before this... I guess I can check it out this winter before I buy some.

    My '99was a manual. I like the manual much better in the snow. Better control, but the auto in the second gen is pretty good with the ease at which I can down shift.

    Santa might be giving me an engine for Christmas :)

    Anyone know where I can find some darn wiring diagrams for a 08 V6? Seems the Toyota mafia has had all the forums remove their data. I'm concerned if the engine is newer then mine the VSC and new electronics could be an issue. I'm not quite sure yet what year the engine is.

    All the engine wiring should be the same? You will just be changing the engine right and not the whole electronics package? No need to change the computer and associated to just drop in the same 4.0?

    People get stupid...er...here in the winter too.

    My ex's 99 was a manual and it was horrible too. Iowa must get different snow than MT and AK

    Evenin' Connor Mac.

    That means you were a good boy this year? That can't be right....

    Yep. Just the engine. New one has the harness, but I can use mine. I'm clueless with this sort of thing so just covering my bases. I just found the wire diagrams on another forum.

    I was very very good this year even though it was not good to me. Thinking 2013 could be muuuuch better.

    :annoyed: just spent 25 fucking min. Trying to get my youngest dog to go poop in the snow. I was covered in snow. The snow flakes are the size of quarters.

    I do bill pay and its nice. Since my paydays fluctuate I can't do the auto pay thing but its nice having all of the bills and due dates in one spot and I can pay a bill with just a couple of clicks of the mouse.

    Whatcha up to? I see the mods didn't listen to Curt (since you're still here) :rolleyes:

    You should be able to select the amount you want to pay...at least that's how mine works

    :D Just trying to be helpful

    Zoie tears around the back yard after that "mission" ;)

    :laughing:

    I can select the amount to pay, but when paying the bill on the bank web site, you get to pick where any extra goes. Don't want them to think it's for escrow and send the extra back (again)

    You should give everyone raises since you're in charge. That'll teach the boss not to leave you alone!
