    Big thanks to @DownhillDragon for gettin me tuned up! It's was a pleasure meeting you sir.

    That was a good Sunday, cruising down to 6th Street to pick up a box of Voodoo Donuts, getting Tuned, taking a quick tour through inner space caverns (just geology nerd things), then driving the 3 hours back home in an absolutely massive nasty headwind.

    I guess it's a good thing I had plenty of punch in that throttle to take on the weather like it was nothing. :D

    I definitely went "woah."

    There’s a lot of rocks, sand and dirt lol

    Kansas is terrible. So is Nebraska and the dakotas. When I go out west I’m stuck driving across one of them all day, and they are all equally terrible

    Lol, agreed. I drive from CO to Boston round trip at least once a year, nothing like actual flatland. You know it’s bad when you get excited about being in super mild rolling hills of Iowa.

    I'm just wired weird.

    I'd be sooo happy to be crossing any of those states right about now.

    Hey @tonered, love the thread and availability of the tuning resources popping up everywhere.

    Since this thread is pretty robust, would you be willing to sticky the #1 post and update it to include tuners in each area/region? I get asked for tuners all over the country and I'd like to support the community to further spread the VF tuning development.

    I'll start here - @PNWTAC0MA and @cemented - Based in Portland, OR with mobile tuning all throughout the PNW region (OR, WA, ID, MT, NorCAL)

    Thank you in advance for your consideration.

    Hey, Paul.

    Good idea!

    I cannot sticky threads, but I would be happy to add a tuner list to the 1st Post.

    You sir, are the man.

    I think we can then request the mods move this to the 3rd gen thread and ask for it to be stickied? Is that even a word? :rofl:

    To start, I would flash the latest known TSB. It is the best base for the tunes, helps eliminate the rare dealer rando flash problem, and the TSB flashes did good things for me. If a dealer did flash a new TSB, it is not a big deal to reflash a tune. There are some caveats there. Like there might be a delay if the ECU ID is not supported by vF yet, etc.

    My hope, given what folks are saying about 04B14, 04B33, and 04B81, is that Toyota stops dropping TSBs. But, the 2017 ATs and 2018s have not got their dues yet.
