I know you said 1 hour from DIA, but have you considered 1 hour or less from Eagle County Regional Airport? Flights are probably move expensive from there, but you'll enjoy CO live far more on the western slope vice the front range. The CO front range (Colo. Spring to Ft. Collins) is a miserable...

Got my dashboard. Brought it in August 2015, said they ordered it November 2015, installed it October 2016. Looks good. Has a tad grayish tint to it. Not the solid black like the old on. Regardless, I'm happy and appears the install went good. Dealership billed Toyota $1137, parts and labor.

Stopped by my dealer this past Monday and he said there are over 2,000 4Runner dashboards on back order, 200 of which are in my regional (midwest). He said all the other dashboards (Camry, Avalon, Sienna) are coming in. I went in on Aug 2015 to get the go ahead for replacement, but oddly enough...

On second thought...If I disabled the system could I just removed the TPMS sensor and put normal valves in there. I don't see why not... TPMS...Dumbest system ever. Designed for general population that doesn't know how to check their tire pressure.

Quick question...I have a facility available to me that allows me to mount and balance my own tires with the assistance of someone knowledgeable about the tire mounting and balancing machine. Now, I think I need to be careful when taking off the old tire and installing the new tire because of...

Got some Cooper Discoverers AT3 for $574.08. With the $80 mail-in rebate from Cooper, works out to be $123.52. Pretty good I'd say. The better deal was found at their website and not the eBay store. Thanks for posting though...

Now, why do you need to change this part every 36K miles?

Few thoughts... 1. My iPhone 5 is going to be worth a lot of money if they've stopping manufacturing of it in favor of iPhone 5S, 5C, and 4S 2. Is the 5C pretty much identical to the 5? 3. Why hasn't Apple moved to a larger screen size? Think more and more people are getting screen envy. 4...

I changed my avatar in honor of you and this thread. I agree with the majority. Put your dog down before you know it's suffering. Remember the great times the two of you had together. Those will never escape from you and your dog knows it too. Finally, plaster your dog's paw prints then bronze...

Stuff like this irritates the crap out of me when wrenching on cars. There's ALWAYS something!

I wouldn't do it. I view the FJ and Jeep sorta like a sportscar. I would only consider one if I was a serious "wheeler". But I'd probably look more closely at the Jeep before the FJ. Why not a used Landcruiser?

Well, my quick glance reveals you didn't get the slight negative camber you wanted. I got a hunch your cam bolts were siezed and the tech/service advisor didn't bother telling you. Regarding your caster. Appears to be close to zero. Think you want it close 2.5+. Toe is good.
