Does that mean laminated in the same way as the acoustic glass on the doors though, or as a synonym for tempered glass like some automakers seem to do
I mean, what you suggest certainly makes sense, but one cannot be too sure in this era of costcutting
From the early media coverage people were saying that the SR5 has acoustic glass around (unlike LC, which is just embarrassing), but that the higher trims would have acoustic glass on the windshield which the SR5 supposedly doesn't have. Don't know how true any of that is, never heard anything...
Congrats! Are you getting noticeable turbo whistle from inside the vehicle in daily normal driving?
I have the same thoughts about the screen size. No bezel would look better but I think I'd also appreciate it as something meaty to grab onto sometimes while working the screen. It seems like...
May as well just go for the Limited since it sounds like what the ORP offers doesn't actually entice you that much. I think the Limited might get the worst MPGs of all trims though, since the always locked front hubs are gonna sag efficiency a bit, and it is a bit of a fatso for a gas trim
And...
I came from Ford so it was a pretty simple affair just buying a Forscan dongle, hooking up my laptop and changing a setting for tire size. It was the same kind of cheap ELM327 dongle as people have been using with Carista. Amazed that other manufacturers or software vendors haven't thought to do...
I agree, this is the conventional wisdom from last gen Toyota and what I expect to be the same this gen.
In particular I'm somewhat worried for SR5 as it's on the order of 7% difference between 30.5" and 32.6" - even if 32.6" was spot on that's still like 5mph difference at highway speeds. I...
Everest would be amazing 4runner competition. 2.3EB is simple and dependable (and new MPC revision adds dual injection), also one of the closest analogues to the T24A-FTS. Familiar interior from the Ranger. Watts link rear end like Bronco/Ranger Raptor is a nice touch too.
They probably just...
As a Canadian I only wish we could aggressively shop rates:
Domestic offers slightly lower rates currently than Japanese automakers but it's not lower by much
Oh of course, dealers do suck for every brand. The buying experience at my local Toyota dealer turned me away from Toyota for years...
I can accept that an E-rated tire will have 1 or 2 extra sidewall plies over a SL tire, but at best it *might* have an extra sidewall ply over a C-rated tire (though I haven't seen any concrete examples yet). The E tire is rated higher, of course, but that doesn't necessarily signify anything as...
Is that a new KO3 thing? I don't think that usually holds true for ATs. Whatever sidewall ply you get is whatever sidewall ply you get, the extra plies from E are where the tread is
Ford's employee pricing is such a yawn honestly. They only really want to sell F-150s, it doesn't matter what other models they put on the poster or program. For years Rangers have had pitiful discounts here and they always try to use $10k employee pricing to steer you towards F-150 (their cash...
Okay, but are they also going to be keeping supply at status quo while they do that? One could imagine that while Toyota is playing this card to keep customers happy, from a business standpoint it also wouldn't exactly be scrambling to expand production just to make more of a loss on each...
Dude.......this looks absolutely frickin amazing. The offset being even higher than I thought is so nice. Still fully tucked under there, looks OEM and so much better than the TRD accessory 18 being offered right now.
The Pro BBS is the only wheel I would consider ditching the SR5 17s for...
interesting
I wouldn't mind. I'd take trailhunter sliders, pro rocker protectors, pred steps, fixed running boards all before touching automatic steps with a 10 foot pole
