    Smashed tail gate on garage door / Why can my wife NEVER be on time?!

    OUCH. I did the same thing a couple weeks ago. Got all the plastic parts and tried to put them back on but the door is tweaked. Its going to take about five days in the body shop to pop it out and maybe another week if they have to replace it. I won't ever move that vehicle with the hatch open...

    Just bought a 2015 Trail Premium. What should my first upgrades be?

    Being serious for second... WeatherTech or Husky floor liners are a must. Its a cheap investment on preserving the interior from mud and dust that can destroy all the carpet. Next I would say a quality set of rock rails. If you plan on doing even some mild rock crawling they will save your...

    Battery Replacement

    Thanks for the input on the batteries everyone! Now, the real question... Where is the best price? Seems like the Odyssey batteries are just about the same price everywhere.

    Battery Replacement

    I'm looking for a new one as well. 2012 OEM battery, likely on borrowed time. Are you guys looking at stock size or something slightly larger? :juggle: My electrical load isn't too heavy. I have an aftermarket head unit and 600W amp. No fridge or under hood compressor. I'm kind of leaning...

    Anyone has ANY luck finding the "Canadian Cargo Liner"?

    I'm definitely interested. Those look pretty amazing.

    VSC has to go.

    I had the same issue after my lift was installed. The VSC kept kicking in on winding roads. Try the paper clip method of calibrating the VSC again. It only takes a minute and I am sure you will solve the issue. You will find the instructions here...

    THE Day you were Glad you owned it...

    " had to use the rumble strips on the side of the road to know where the hell your going cause you cant see the car in front or the road." We call that "driving by braille". Scary by effective under bad conditions. :driving:

    Sub in Cubby

    I had a DC Sound off Sunset in Henderson build one for me. This is the final product. They attempted to use the plastic surround in the cubby as the box. I played around for a while tweaking the sound and stuffing foam and dynamat all around the rear of the truck. In the end it worked, but it...

    Aftermarket Stereo Setup

    I am happy with the sound and location of the sub. I discussed the merits of a sealed sub vs. a ported one. This is a sealed set up. The bass is tight and thumpy which is perfect for my rock and country music listening. Down the road if I decide to go with a larger sub we would bump that panel...

    Aftermarket Stereo Setup

    This was the solution to the subwoofer placement issue I had. I didn't want a huge box held down by straps. I used a local sound shop to create this custom enclosure for an 8" sub. Its driven by a nice Phoenix Gold RX600.5 amp under the driver seat. It's a custom fiberglass enclosure. My...

    Squirrly/loose Steering

    Mine was a little off after my lift and alignment. I had them check it last week after describing it as being a "little tippy". Kind of like driving on a knife edge. The nailed the alignment but for some reason they couldn't perform a zero point yaw calibration. I asked that it be done because...

    2010+ TRD Supercharger

    Should we start a pool on how much its going to go for installed? I'm guessing around $4k with dealer installation and warranty.

    Bought Icon lift. Now what?

    I can't wait to see the results. I'm looking at getting the same lift for mine. Any ideas yet on wheels and tires? Upgrading brakes too?:usa2:
