    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    A day late but I ordered a set of Low Beam LEDs from Lasfit after being mightily impressed by their high beam LEDs. Took advantage of the Black Friday discount that was extended to Monday.

    Thinking of selling my Calvary Blue Pro for a Tundra Pro or Sierra AT4

    Rent a trailer and return it when the move is done. You get to keep your 4R you like and don't have to store the trailer afterwards.

    Replacement for high beam

    Okay, here goes again, I guess I should have supplied more information... I have HID in my low beams which work well and tried LED's first in the projectors and was not pleased with the results so do not intend to try them again. If needed I will disable the DRL by bending the pin on the HL...

    Replacement for high beam

    One of my high beam bulbs burned out on my 2017 4R Limited so it is time for repair. My preference would be to go to LED for the high beam. I recall that the DDM Saber LED seemed to be the replacement of choice if one was going that route. Is this still the best choice in LEDs? I see there...

    what riding lawn mower?

    My suggestions are to get a mower with three blades, not two, cut is much better from my experience. Avoid big box stores, those units are cheaper for a reason and service will probably suck. Support a local dealer. I went from a tractor to a zero turn and will never buy another tractor unless...

    And this is why i wear Apple Watch

    My daughter told me a while back that the Ex's Apple Watch indicated an AFIB condition. She went to the cardiologist and they didn't find anything so was sent home. About a week later, same alert so she went to urgent care immediately.. Sure enough AFIB in progress. She is now being treated...

    2023 Sequoia or Lift our 4th Gen

    Not only will you not get any return on lifting the 4R, but it will also cause potential buyers to question as to whether the vehicle has been abused. The folks that will be interested because of the lift (young male buyers) in many cases do not have the income to be able to afford a 4R.

    Verizon GSM or ATT

    I had AT&T for a very short while, the GSM did not work at my home. The wife was required to go with AT&T by her employer in order to get reimbursed/covered phone service. We tried to use one of the online units and it didn't work for us with our internet. She had to drive to the top of a...

    Do you also own a sports car?

    If a 650hp Z06 Corvette qualifies as a sports car, yes I do...

    Any Ham Radio Operators Here?

    My Limited is a 17 but they are likely similar. I mounted the box of my Icom 2370 under the drivers seat and have the control head mounted in the cubby hole under the radio/nav. If you check on the firewall there are a couple of about 1 1/2" rubber plugs with unused tips that can be trimmed and...

    LED High Beams

    OP here, I initially also tried LED's in my low beams, won't say who from but they sucked, reduced output and poor beam pattern. I then opted for HID's to replace the LED units and was very pleased with the results. I got good cutoff and much better beam spread. I chose a warmer color also...

    LED High Beams

    Okay folks, this has been quite a discussion, but I received no answers to the original questions I posed. The three I want answered are: 1. Which are the brightest? XD or DDM 2. Those that have the XDs with the module, do they strobe? 3. Are the XDs on in full bright in DRL mode like...

    LED High Beams

    Have decided to upgrade my high beams with LEDs. For a long time and maybe yet today the DDMs were King of the Hill at least as far as intensity was concerned but unless you disabled the auto feature on Limiteds you had to put up with very bright strobing when in DRL mode or cut the pin on the...

    Earn a Living with Your 4Runner Rescuing Electric Vehicles

    At 72 YO I certainly fall in that group that gets the OK Boomer dismissal. It ticks me off to no end but then I consider the source. They don't have enough time on the planet yet to have gained life skills or reality. They probably won't like it when that sets in and wonder WTF happened. I do...
