    Got the Eibach pro lift kit installed!

    Finally got around to posting up this quick video with the correct part numbers if anyone is interested. Installation went very smooth, zero issues. Now after driving it for about a week, I'm still super happy with how they ride and handle and of course the overall looks. I did not think that a...

    New Vids

    Well, long story short, wife wanted to trade in the 4Runner TRD Pro for the Porsche Macan GTS. That was a huge mistake of course, but I cannot believe the shady people from the Porsche dealership. Please watch this video and hopefully it can prevent some of these mistakes I've made for other...

    Auto Theft Prevention - Testing (Video Inside)

    The easier the tech gets for us to get into our cars/trucks, the easier it gets for the thieves to steal them as well, unfortunately.

    Auto Theft Prevention - Testing (Video Inside)

    That's exactly how they trace it. They know most people leave their key fobs near the garage or driveway where the cars are parked. That's how a lot are stolen, with such ease. This box prevents them from hacking/tracing the key fobs. It's an added extra measure for security, as alarms and...

    Auto Theft Prevention - Testing (Video Inside)

    Few weeks ago there was a Toyota Highlander stolen in my neighbourhood right off the driveway. The homeowners kept their key fobs right by the garage man door inside. The thieves were able to trace the key fob signal to their decoy, and that's how they easily got into the Toyota and drove off in...

    How About Those Mobil 1 20,000 Mile 5th Gen Oil Change Intervals ?

    I use the same Mobil1 Synthetic oil and still change it between 5-7k kms. Think of your engine oil as the life blood of your engine. This is cheap and very easy preventative maintenance, especially if you plan to keep it for many years to come, it will be worth it in the long run more so.

    Few days left for subscription, continue?

    So I have only a few days left to use the subscription Toyota app which controls remote start, destination assist and some other stuff. I believe it's $10 Cdn. per month, is it worth it? Would be nice to have the remote start during the winter months, but the rest I can do without, especially...

    Winter Tire vs All Terrain Snow Rated Tire

    Being near the GTA myself, just west of it, I highly recommend a dedicated winter tire. I went with the Bridgestone Blizzaks DM-V2, which handles amazing, very impressed with it, and with a set of steel rims, from pmctire.com They ship out of Quebec, free shipping anywhere in Canada and free...

    Thanks for confirming what I thought everyone, much appreciated!

    Is this service legit?

    There is nothing complimentary offered here for new Toyota's, that's why I asked because some brands offer that for the first couple years or so. I'll have to look at the owners manual and see which and when the important service dates are because for things like this I will not be wasting my...

    Is this service legit?

    Yes that's what I figured. First oil change I did at 1,700kms and most recently at 7,500kms.
