If I have a few years, it would be a boat and not a car.:fishing:

Agreed. My problem seems correlated with the unusually cold and snowy Winter we are having in the PNW.

Update #1- Now that injector wire #4 is fixed- this was the service advisor's feedback- rodents like the warm engine area just under the intake to escape the cold. Unfortunately, to repair the #4 injector wire the upper intake needs to be removed. Thus the expensive repair. The service...

15 in 4 lo:thumb3: Agreed on the motorcycle comment. Hit 150 gps in Joshua Tree NP on my Yamaha. Scary fast. It was still pulling but I ran out of balls. 4Runner is for all things that the Yamaha is ill suited.

Ok, truck is repaired and running good. Missed a ski day in Crystal because of this issue. Baited my front yard, added some garlic powder to the parking area. Next is putting peppermint in the engine compartment and adding the Honda rodent resistant tape to the wire in areas that are...

Had a marmot chew my sleeping bag with me in it at Mineral King in 1997. We thought it was something big in the middle of the night. Too funny. Everything at night was a bear after seeing a couple earlier in the day. Marmots are the worse much worse than my mouse problem. If I would have been a...

Ok. Need an improved version of the owl ornament. It should also pee pledge and s*** Bounce dryer sheets. The Original scent and not the Outdoor Fresh scent that I have the 500 count Costco size pack. Ha. You guys are cheering me up a bit. Thanks.

If only it could occasionally pee coyote urine and alternatively peppermint oil then that could be exactly what I am looking for.

House is rodent free. Wife might think I am a rat some days. That should not count. Reluctant to bait outside since eagles and Seahawks frequent the area, which is close to Lake Washington. However, war has been declared when you f*** with a man's new truck.

I live in an older part of Seattle and park on a the street. I will put some bait out prior to collecting the truck today. I realize that this is not a new problem and maybe the soy based insulation has exastetbated the problem. Not an expert in rodents nor wire insulation so really will leave...

Yes, the sales department is paying the service department. So basically after raising a fuss the dealer is paying. Still concerned about the long term reliability of this truck based upon the class action lawsuits and this one experience. Subtracting the 5 days I have been in a loaner for a...

Brand new 2017 4Runner Limited with less than 20 days and under 600 miles. Some buddies wanted to go out this morning. Started the 4Runner and it was very rough. Chalked it up to a chilly morning in Seattle. Before I got around the block check engine light and trac off light. Would not idle...

I have the same problem with my 2017 4runner Limited running an iPhone 6 and Entune app. When I leave the truck and my phone reconnects but plays audio in short bursts. Also, I have to sometimes reset the AV system by power off button on the head unit for 3s per the manual to make phone call...

Agree with lighter colors. I choose white.

Would be nice to make these out of a material that does not melt when tires spin.
