Is a better looking grill worth giving up the TSS Sensor

    I wouldn't want to give up the TSS. Just last week, it was pouring rain. The speed limit was 45mph I was probably doing 45 with lots of space between me and the vehicle in front of me. The person in front of me hit their brakes hard to stop at a cross walk. I drive this road every day and I didn't even know there was a cross walk there. The TSS started going nuts before I realized the car was slowing down. I'm not sure how it would have played out with the TSS. Maybe I would have stopped in time. 2 cars behind me had to swerve around me because they couldn't.

    Looks good, maybe a bit too open...which is good for cooling but I think i would prefer a tighter honeycomb...but hey, it looks awesome!

    Good idea. Keep that function intact. Especially for a daily driver. If its strictly an off road rig, then TSS could probably be forgotten, but for daily use on road it's a really nice feature that I wouldn't have been willing to do away with
