    March Madness

    I'm so bummed. Fab Melo won't be playing in the tournament for Syracuse (my alma mater) because of an academic disqualification. And they did so well in the regular season. Gonna have to re-do the bracket now!!

    ... it didn't look that soft

    That is some pretty deep mud! Guess the rear locker would have been of no use. So I see a cable. What's at the other end of it pulling you out?

    white emanating light

    Hopefully it wasn't a near death experience where people experience seeing a tunnel with a white light (not unlike an LED) at the end.

    Missing windshield wiper de-icer on some 2011 SR5 models - explained

    Yeh, I've tried very hard to see the utility in those warmers on my vehicle and I suppose they do work to an extent but really, and the end of the day, I have to lump them into the same category with the BMW headlight wipers etc. I had to smile when you mentioned lean processes which my company...

    Rust bleeding through paint on rear hatch

    Man, that really does suck and no, that should not be acceptable at all. I know that you are taking it back to them and I hope that you don't get the same person working on it because they obviously are inept. Usually, there is at least one person (depending on the size of the shop) who is...

    2010 SR5 Lift for On-road Performance Only

    Yeh, that site does not make it very clear, does it. But in this link you can see the difference. Bilstein 5100 Front and Rear Shocks from Wheeler's Off-Road, Inc

    Thanks for the info.

    2010 SR5 Lift for On-road Performance Only

    I'd be interested in an answer/explanation to this as well. Would swapping out the rear shocks with the Bilsteins also allow me to put a bit more weight in the cargo area? Also, if I am only interested in correcting the nose dive (will never want any kind of lift whatsoever) and do not offroad...

    Im thinking about order a 2012 4runner, need some advice please

    I understand that the 2013 mid year revamp T4R will be going back to it's original roots even more. Here's a sneak preview of what to expect. Seriously though, 2 good recommendations from the previous posts. Plus $36k for the 2011 with 18kmi does not strike me as a great deal for any model by...

    Rust bleeding through paint on rear hatch

    I'd like to know how that could possibly be happening with an essentially new vehicle unless someone took a sand blaster or some such action and pelted the back of your wife's vehicle causing bare metal to be exposed. And you mentioned blistering. Yeh, I'd like to see some close-up pics of that...

    Traction control and wet tires

    I'm sure some others here who have the Geolander AT-S will chime in with their experiences but I've noticed you mentioned as another option among other manufacturers Hankook. I'm not sure how much their tire composition differs among their tire lines but I had put a brand new set of all-season...

    Question For Non-KDSS TE Owners...

    I have a TE without KDSS and couldn't be happier. I love the "look" of the TE over the SR5 as well as the LTD (personal opinion) and it does everything I need it to do. I've taken it mildly offroad several times, played with the select a terrain dials and even checked out the rear locker once...
