Not that I needed another reason to despise raptor lights on Toyotas but I can sarcastically add this to the list. (I don't actually care what others do to their own rigs. If they want to install raptor lights it makes it easier for me to profile them.)

I wanted to make a short video by now but life has been hectic so I'll simply share my solution until I can make the video. I took a bit of a risk and bought the XBB unit. It is $400 with no returns but fortunately it works exactly as I had hoped...

How much fun was it to get to the unit? I have a CANM8 that I was unable to get to work with the contactless reader at the headlight. I would receive a signal but couldn't decipher it or whatever. I was hoping it would be similar to the Tundra and some of those folks have had success tapping...

I'm not sure who is saying the 2.4" setting in front and stock rear springs won't squat. I have the the fronts at 2.4" and a 1" cornfed spacer in the rear with stock springs. It rides level until I put anything in back then it is debatable. I have the air lift helper bags that I want to install...

I ran both AT3W and Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT on my 5th gen. Both were great. Falkens got me everywhere I needed to go, incredible in rain and snow, great life. The Mickey Thompsons were lighter, less expensive, more aggressive, never got to put them to the test in snow and rain before moving...

I did get a working solution just a couple nights ago but have been giving it a few days before posting it. I’m out of town on the road but will share what I’ve done soon. Be warned, it isn’t a cheap solution but it is a stupid simple one that took less than 10 minutes.

Good price.

I just use the Veritas Vans mount with magnets and Peakdoo battery. The "missing" crossbar for the rack is one of the rear ones so I use that open space. I PPF'd a couple runners on the roof where the magnets attach. When I need Starlink I just slap it up there and I'm good for 4+ hours on the...

We’re living semi parallel builds. I just did the Bilstein 6112/6100 setup on mine with 2.5”/1” lift.

Big misconception folks have is that higher octane gives you more power. It does not. Higher octane simply doesn't suffer from the power reducing adjustments of lower octane. I have ran both and couldn't tell you if there is any real noticeable difference. I tend to fuel up with 92 because it...

For what it is worth I just did the Hella Trumpet Horns a couple days ago. https://amzn.to/4vIFh6F Amazon shows they won't fit the 6th gen but they absolutely do. I just don't think they've updated their database. Install couldn't be easier. I could literally install at work with the basic...

It never ceases to amaze me how much folks want to argue about this. There is less debate around politics and religion. Folks will literally preach about changing their oil every 3k miles but then fill up with the worst quality fuel because it is a few cents cheaper, not let their rig warm up at...

I hate threads like this because everyone's rig and driving style is different and directly effects what is trying to be compared but since I literally just fueled up an hour ago, got 23.1 on this tank. That is on par with my good tanks. I've been on trips where the gauge shows over 26 mpg for a...

I've been trying to tell the 6th gen crowd about Cornfed but no one seems to care. There are shinier and way more expensive options that you still can't see when installed that folks seem to prefer. I needed a small spacer for the rear and went Cornfed. Well under $100 and works as good as any...

I was in the area for the last few days and escaped just in time. Traffic already sucks over there but it was getting bad by mid day Thursday. The line of rigs working there way from the west side over to Central Oregon told me all I needed to know. (Traffic on the Mt Hood side will be...
