Shake Like A Dog Button - Help
I bought a new 4runner last week, and I've been hesitant to try the "Shake Like a Dog" button. According to the owners manual it's designed to fling the mud off of the vehicle after it gets filthy.
How violent is this shake? Should I wear a seat belt? Maybe even a helmet? I need some opinions based on experience. Please see the photo below.

Thanks in advance!

Wings Pop Out button is the one you have to be concerned about

That may be your opinion, but my ex-wife was not a fan of the "ejector seat" function.

You inspired me to give it a go!
Turns out that the seat moves opposite of the body shake and neutralizes the effect on the driver. As you said - no seat belt needed! Just don't leave your drink in the cup holder.

It wouldn't have bothered her so much if you left the sunroof open.

You use the shake like a dog button when you have to distract your truck from dry humping your leg.

Maybe it's like the Benz bounce mode that no one will ever use offroad.
