Nose Dive

The biggest problem for me is the nose dive and the rake. I am going to put on Bilstein 6112 shocks which should fix those issues.

Most people like the push button start but i prefer using a key, less electronics to go bad.
Mileage is not the greatest but it is a lot better than my LX 470. I like the old school controls, only thing i would like to have is lane change sensors and sensors when backing up.
Its my wife's daily driver but I get it on the weekends

I keep bumping the high beams on when using the turn signal. Guess I'm just used to a bit less sensitive light control. I find myself constantly double checking the lever position after every turn.

I didn’t like the OEM tires. Too soft. Just replacing the tires helped a lot with drivability including nose dive.

Looking under the hood last night, there is a ton of space around the engine. I'm thinking adding a couple storage boxes in there for winch controller, air hoses, and recovery gear.

Regretting I didn't buy an Arb air compressor.

Need to figure out a way to securely / safely store recovery gear in cargo compartment. My recovery strap fits perfectly in the little storage compartment just past the passenger rear tire.

I saw a YouTube video where the guy was able to install the ARB air compressor and still have a shovel in the engine bay.
