    Keep OEM TPMS?

    When I swapped my rims the shop reused the 4 OEM sensors and added theirs for the spare. The only one that has failed is the non-OEM sensor. Anecdotal data point of one, but I'll probably pick up a Toyota branded sensor myself and have them install it when I go in for re-balance/rotation.

    Liquidmantis's modest [boring] build thread

    Wow, I haven't been around here in a long time. I just recently installed a Rigd hitch mount tire swing after deliberating about a rear bumper for the longest time, and upgraded my old Kenwood DNX893s to an oversized DNR1007XR for Gaia/Trails Offroad/OnX maps. I'll have to take some photos of...

    Least Miles Winner?

    Thought I'd have this one in the bag, but daaaamn, y'all. 2016, bought new, now at 16500. Work from home full-time, almost entirely road trip and backroad miles.

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

    Obviously time for front and rear bumpers!

    Best Bike Hitch Rack?

    If we're posting bike pr0n, here's my 1Up. The black ano didn't hold up that well, but my rack lives on the 4R full-time. I picked up the Kuat Pivot so that I can swing the rack fully out of the way to get access to the back. It works great but does extend the rack further out and so it...

    Best Bike Hitch Rack?

    Certainly to hold up an HD4.

    Aiden James Customs - Anyone heard from them lately?

    Speaking as someone who has no stake in this, other than having eyed the turn signals for a long time and only held off ordering due to lead times, this arguing serves no benefit to a business.

    Best Bike Hitch Rack?

    1Up rack is amazing, and is a clear winner in local Colorado groups when this question comes up. Its all metal construction is heirloom build quality. ;-) It also has as-good-as-it-gets departure angle clearance. As far as being held by the tires, that's what you want. It supports any frame...

    I don't know, that sounds right to me.

    Any Mountain Bikers on Here?

    Everyone seems to be raving about Bentonville. Spider Mountain down by Burnet would probably be a fun way to spend a long weekend, too.

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

    I've had a few outside rides this year, but nothing on the trails yet. Lower trails are mostly dried out and we're hitting mid 60s for the next three days so I'm looking forward to some actual trail days! Of course after that we've got rain and snow coming this weekend so that might restart...

    Gobi Stealth: no rise vs standard

    Lucky for you, you still have a couple of months to change your mind. Seriously though, just call and update your order.

    King's vs BP-51's

    I went with BP-51 partly because they were the new hotness, don't need regular servicing, and I couldn't figure out if the Kings were actually a lift or just a suspension upgrade (like mentioned upthread). My BP-51s do have some mild clunking when it's cold. Supposedly that's an identified...

    Gobi Stealth: no rise vs standard

    Agreed. I've got no regrets going with the no-rise, and it can still support single row lights if you really want them. I personally don't see the need for insane lights and the roof lights just seem good for hood glare.
