Are you disappointed in me for a trading in my Tacoma to get a 4Runner?

    I am very happy with my Diode Dynamics SS3 sport pod fogs. The max's are better but quite a bit more :spending:

    If you are adding fogs have you upgraded the factory bulbs? I have the +130 H11 bulbs and they are a good improvement over stock. A cheap mod too.

    And knowing where your travels take you, a hidden light bar or aux lights behind the grill would be a worthwhile upgrade

    I guess the main thing that attracted me to it was the price and the fact that I haven't seen anyone else with it. I also think it looks decent but I do completely understand people being hesitant of the design.

    +1 to what he said. All good info! And sometime in the near future if me and Coffee man are at one of the TW shindigs you may be able to compare side-by-side. :anonymous:

    We're here for ya, buddy!

    Oh no doubt, please don't take my comment as me poo-poo'ing on it. I don't think it looks bad at all it's just not perfect but can't really put my finger on why. I'm just being very picky and I feel like I've got a decent eye for these things. Don't listen to me anyways, buy what you like, all that matters is you are happy!

    I still have the factory high beam bulbs but I also did that mod where you clip off the one piece of plastic and can run a high beam bulb in the low beams which made such a huge difference

    :thumbsup: That's a more worthwhile change than running a +130 bulb like I am.

    I wonder if you have had this truck long enough for the rest of us to let you in on a little secret... Maybe we'll make you wait until you hit 50k.

    So I'm not sure what all that update that I did on my head unit fixed, because I still randomly get the issue where the screen becomes completely unresponsive while using Android Auto and I have to reboot it.....

    Does it do it when you are not using Android auto?

    Not that I've ever seen. It seems like The longer of a drive it is the greater the chance that the screen goes unresponsive, and if I have to do some u-turns where I put it into reverse and back into drive there's an extremely high chance that it will happen

    If it's isolated to AA it might not be on Toyota's end. I personally hate AA and don't use it.

    I absolutely love Android Auto especially since I have it wireless now. Obviously the issues are unfortunate but having to reboot now and again isn't the end of the world (although I did have to reboot once in a big city so I was flying blind without directions until it got back up and running lol)
