    Radio / Nav Rebooting

    Well, no luck this morning. After about 15 minutes, the HU rebooted. After the reboot, the BT was turned off, and it worked fine. The next thing I'm going to try is the "hard reboot" others have suggested by removing the fuse, which should theoretically reset the radio to the original factory...

    Radio system reboots intermittently

    My radio head unit/ nav system started to reboot as if the car was turned off/on again - constantly. I found another thread on here with some very helpful information: https://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/226682-radio-nav-rebooting.html The original post is pretty old, so I'm...

    Radio / Nav Rebooting

    Held out for 92K miles! So my head unit held out for 92K miles before having this issue. It started to happen a few days ago, and intermittently... the HU turned off/ rebooted after about 10 mins of drive time. The weird thing is that it did it for a day or two, then it stopped, then started...

    Just a follow-up. Did you ever decide on a case? What was your solution?

    Hate the new tax plan?

    THIS^ right here...this jealousy of the rich is why the majority of people who hate Trump and his tax plan are doomed to be wards of the state. If I get a...let's say 10% decrease in my tax bracket, but the rich guy next door gets a 20% decrease...how in the world does that affect my pocket? It...

    Best Time of Year for Utah?

    THANKS! I appreciate the heads-up. We've been planning for a while now...maybe even "overplanning". LoL. For us, being all the way down at the end of Florida (damn near), these trips way out west are once in a (young) lifetime. After I retire - we'll be back, but probably not in shape to do...

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

    Not exactly THIS weekend, but... Spent a few days at Alexander Springs in Ocala National Forest. We really love that area and all it has to offer: https://youtu.be/hoccYthG7mk

    For Whom the Bell Tolls

    Not 4Runner related, but... I sure do hope the 4Runner doesn't meet the same fate as these other classic Toyo namesakes. The Land cruiser may be seeing it's last last few years of production runs if this keeps up. An $85K ultra-posh luxury vehicle probably isn't what most true fans of the badge...

    Toyota Trademarks FT-4X Name - FJ Cruiser Revival? UPDATE: REVEALED

    So you're being an ass by accident? Or just being cryptic on purpose? LoL. I didn't miss that, or any of the other posts about the FT-4X - there's been a lot of talk back & forth about this new concept (like the thread you just shared). This was the first true "reveal" so to speak. I mean, the...

    Toyota Trademarks FT-4X Name - FJ Cruiser Revival? UPDATE: REVEALED

    FT-4X concept unveiled I'm not sure if I should be carefully optomistic or what. Did I just throw up in my outh a little, or is this a feeling of anxiety at a new Toyo 4WD? One thing's for sure, it's gonna be a while before any of us accept it mentioned in the same crowd as the FJ, FJC, Tacoma...

    Towing experiences with your 5th Generation

    I just posted this in the "What did you do...5th Gen" thread, but adding it here, since it was tow-related. We towed our boat from miami to Ft Myers. For this particular tow, keeping the tranny in S4 worked best. The sweet spot was a steady 2.2K RPMs, at about 68MPH. Took a little longer, but...
