What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

I used this grease gun from Harbor Freight with the coupler that came with it on my 2019 and didn't have any issues, wasn't much wiggle room but it worked fine. Fingers crossed it works on my 2023, will know in a few weeks.

 

I just used a flexible straight connector. I did take off the small heat shield which made it 100x easier.

 

These windshields crack faster than any I’ve had in the past. If you get a chip you almost have to get it filled immediately. I got a chip on the way to work, after my shift it had already spread from a chip to 16 inches. The next week same thing happened. Glad I hadn’t gotten the windshield repaired between chips.

 

I gave mine the day off.

 

I haven’t driven mine since April 28th and I miss it. Had back surgery and have been driven around by my wife in her 4Runner. Looking forward to driving it soon though!

 

But what have you done for me lately ??

I saved my '17 AC from getting traded in on a '21 Tundra 1794, but will he appreciate it ?? Noooooo !

I was at the dealer for LOF and the thing caught my eye, but didn't hold it long when I thought of the payments....

Guess I'll install those Firestone Airbags this week that I have on the bench and see what the next 136K brings.

 

I agree....I'm on #4. Windshield guy says the glass is softer (?)

 

Yeah we bought extra coverage for my wife’s 2023 4Runner. Bought it with 8k miles on it and already had the glass replaced. First trip we took got a huge chip and started to spread but they were able to fill it. The guy said that the Toyota windshields crack fast. I said oh I know. Softer makes sense. All my buddies Toyotas are all on new windshields too…sucks the quality is so poor

 

Guess we best get used to these kinds of things to prepare for what the future has in store for us.

 

Absolutely…I don’t think it will get any better!

 

More of the same and then some, now that they see what the masses are willing to accept and pay dearly for !

 

There has obviously been a desire for this and apparently it’s just not possible. Not a wiring thing, but internal within the headlights themselves. I feel like soon enough someone will offer a switchable version. They offer switchable lights of some sort on the new land cruiser.

 

Hit 4k

 

those are rookie numbers you're gonna need to get those numbers up

 

Been trying lol. I drive another vehicle for my job so only drive this four days a week

 

You've got that setup really nice, looks great!!

Have you thought about mounting the Rain Basin under the rack, so it can lay flat and collect water?

 

Pulled over for this with a cop on my ass into a parking lot with 2 looked a bit shady no?

 

Better call a priest…

 

Had the rear-end recall done. While at the dealership, they asked if I had the truck serviced with them, nope. Proceeded to ask me several more times where I've had the truck serviced, my response, "self-service." I was then given a two minute lecture about how they have free oil changes and tire rotations with Toyota care (not my first Toyota), here's the kicker.

I was told "self-service" would void any warranty claims on my truck... Anyone else had the service department tell you that? I do not enjoy this dealership but it's the only one within an hour of me, hence the self-service route.

Bonus, picked up a brake caliper tensioner spring in the tire while leaving their lot, don't think it went deeper than the tread.

 

Thanks! And no I honestly didn't even think of that! I just picked it up this week and wanted to get it mounted before the weekend. That's a killer idea, I'll definitely look into it, thanks!
