H11 in fog light After Bambi decided to suicide by jumping in front of my T4R, I had a fog light that was intact except for the broken mounting points. I decided this would make a good no-risk test for H11s in place of the H16s. I trimmed the tab on an H11 and if fit just fine in the fog...

It looks like you got off a little easier than I did:ohwell: We took a trip to visit our daughter a few weeks ago, and a deer in Oregon got us. It was driveable, but the damage was around 9K. Damage is all repaired, but I'm waiting for my Shrockworks bumper. No, I didn't take the deer, the two...

I only have about 1200 miles on my 2014 trail so my results may not mean too much yet. The first tank showed 19.3, but I don't know for sure how full it was at the start since it was filled by the dealer. Since then I've gotten 20.3 and 20.8. These are calculated from the gas pump and odo...

Well, reading this thread got me curious. It would be odd indeed if the 120 VAC power button had to be pushed to turn on the 12 VDC outlets. Then I read the manual section that was linked, which is the same as the paper manual. It most definitely does NOT say that the 120 VAC button must be...

Hi bgro, When I was looking for an toyota extended warranty (see my post above) I called a number of dealers for prices, all of them would sell me a toyota warranty. The prices varied from way too high, to way, way, way too high but all the dealers were happy to sell the warranty. I'm not sure...

Don't give up, an extended warranty for a decent price can still be had. I bought a T4R trail last week, the dealer wanted a little over $2k for 8 yr 100k. I told him I wouldn't be paying that much and would call him sometime this week (today). I checked with one of the dealers mentioned on...

Hi! Just bought a 2014 4runner trail, my first Toyota, but not my first 4wd. I've been driving different 4wd's since about 1970 so I'm not new to off road. No Mods to the t4r yet, but I'll certainly need decent tires just to get up my driveway in the winter. I may do a slight lift later. I'm...
