    Oil Change 5th Gen: How To- LOTS of PICS!

    Good stuff. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see it before I did mine last week. For some reason, one of the bolts under the drivers side front of the skid plate on mine came off fine, but putting it in I noticed it just spins. So I swamped the bolts and same thing. So either the nut is...

    Can you recommend a Universal Oil Filter wrench?

    True statement thanks. I haven't done it on these 2 cars before, always took them to dealer and the Prius is used from dealer from August. So not sure how tight they are. The 4Runner probably tight, I've had a few oil changes at the deal on that one.

    Can you recommend a Universal Oil Filter wrench?

    Hi guys, it's that time of year. I have Prius and 4Runner and don't want to get multiple tools. So many out there for adjustable filter wrench. Would hate to get one and then discover it is cheaply made and then will have to get dedicated ones for each car.

    Looking for tips on how to "strap" a jerry can to this roof rack

    Hi guys, got a question. I'm looking at jerry can type gas container. I have the following bargain roof rack below. I figure I don't want to spend thousands for a Baja if I'm just 99% driving around without it. So I got one like below and will use it when I go somewhere and remove when not...

    Custom DMV License Plates. Long Wait?!

    Ordered one in August sometime. Said it would take 12 weeks. Then I logged onto the dmv page in Oct and it said that they were suspended due to Covid. I haven't checked since.

    A day trip on the Mojave trail?

    I thought about this too! I was thinking maybe I can do some of the Mojave trail, the spend a night at vegas or something. But Anza Borrego sounds like a fantastic alternative. I've seen some videos and I thought maybe I wouldn't be experienced enough to do the hard sections of AB. So maybe...

    A day trip on the Mojave trail?

    Hi gangters Anyone know if the trail can be done as a day trip? I've seen lots of multi-day trip through there. I just wanna get out of OC for a day. Thinking of leaving in the middle of the night/late morning, be in that area by breakfast time, and taking in an easy trail. Is it mostly 1...

    Anyone use a car cover?

    Hahah! Legit true man!! I see a guy with one nearby that's why I was thinking about it. Grrrr, can't win with the tax man and HOA. I'm guessing I can always move it every 3 days or so. Lately I've seen cars for weeks in same spot. And a few jump starts from not starting the car for a...

    Anyone use a car cover?

    Hola! SoCal resident here. Hot sunny most of the year. I moved into a small place with a 2 car garage but it's a tandem garage. I have a prius up front that I do my go getter groceries and around town driving. Was thinking of parking my 4runner in a suburban street with a car cover. Lots of...

    What is the order of getting these emergency tools?

    Oh my Amazon list-of-things-to-get! I've always wondered why people get a Hi-lift and use it as a winch. I never thought of "just get a winch". I see truckers use these all the time. Thanks!!!
