    Rodent prevention - what has worked for you?

    I have no sign of rodent damage yet, but I'd like to prevent issues with my new-to-me 23 SR5P. What works for you?

    Kicker Key amplifier - anyone using?

    Thanks! I have two questions: - what under seat sub are you using? I don't see one in your signature. maybe I'm missing it. - how is running speaker wire into the doors? Is there room in the rubber boot?

    Key recall? Missing actual key

    does anyone have a recommendation for a keyfob cover that doesn't rely on the key blade for attaching to a keychain? that is, something that has it's own built in loop?

    Key recall? Missing actual key

    Toyota said it's not part of the recall. The recall is just the fob and I'd need to get a new key cut if i want the actual "key" part.

    Key recall? Missing actual key

    I took advantage of the key "recall" for my 2023 SR5P (they were delivered with 1 key because of shortages at the time). Somehow it took almost two hours, but when I got home, I noticed that the slot where the physical key goes is empty. Is that normal? I guess I don't really care about the key...

    Kicker Key amplifier - anyone using?

    I've spent the last 10 years without any upgraded car audio and have a new low mileage SR5P and I don't want to spend the next 10 years without decent audio again. An audio system can be a slippery slope. I think I'd like to go simple for this car. It doesn't have to be amazing, but I'd like it...

    Terrible in snow when in 2wd

    picked up a 2023 SR5P a few days back (before the snow) and my RX350 is definitely better "out of the box". I have some new KO3's coming in this week, hopefully before it snows again this weekend. Interested to compare against the Pep Boys tire this thing came with.

    I'm done with AT Tires

    howdy neighbor. Current 3rd gen owner with a new-to-me 5th gen coming in this week. Carmax has Pep Boys Iron Man tires on it which I assume I'd like to replace. I do a few trips a year out to Western Maryland and Western PA (from Annapolis) for skiing. We were out in the middle of nowhere near...

    help in valuation of my 3rd gen - people keep knocking on my door!

    thank you. there's rust but I'm not sure how bad is bad. I've seen photos where people say "that's normal, looks fine". I'll snap some photos to get the forum's opinion. Thanks!

    help in valuation of my 3rd gen - people keep knocking on my door!

    hello! I have a Black 2001 SR5 with 170-180k miles on it. It's our third car and it needed a suspension repair that I never got to (I can't remember the exact part that needed to be replaced). It sat for about a year and when I went to start it, gas pours out from the gas tank when running...

    Fuel tank replacement? Rust? Considering starting a restoration project

    Moved a couple of years ago and my 2001 has been doing a lot of sitting, mainly because I was getting a clunk and the shop I usually go to quoted me a sum of money that I wasn't prepared to pay at the time. It's been long enough that I can't recall the exact issue....control arms maybe? I...

    Stuck in parking lot. Key won’t turn. What would you do?

    I knew it would bite me in the ass someday. Not as motivated with it being my second car. Glad it only happened a mile from home!

    Stuck in parking lot. Key won’t turn. What would you do?

    Excellent, thanks. I’ll try to do this to keep the same keys as the doors. I was (just now) able to remove the cover under the steering wheel and thwack the cylinder and that was enough to get me home. I’ll work on replacing the cylinder this week. Thanks for all the help, as always
