    Service Question - Dos and Don'ts - Plugs and Not Wires?

    Hi Guys, I have a question about the 90K service. I am trying to do my due diligence. I've read what others posted on the boards here and would like an opinion. I spoke to the dealership today. Here is what I was told: Timming Belt + Drive Belt + The Other Belt (forgot name) + Water Pump +...

    Tires in the Los Angeles Area. Which ones to buy.

    Hey Guys, I need new tires. Know of any good places to get tires in the Los Angeles area? I'm located in Diamond Bar. Should I just hit up a Sears/Costco/Walmart? I put 60K on the Dunlop AT20's that came with my truck. I'm on a budget. I got quoted Dunlop AT20's for $125 plus tax. mount...

    What is wrong with an 06 Sport V8 4Runner?

    I love my 2006 SE V8. My suggestion would be for you to get one of those. Although, I am bias. IMO, it's a better drive then my sisters 2006 MDX and my brothers 2007 ML350. For the record, I'm pro hood scoop, and anti spoiler. Not that anyone asked.

    Hid

    I'm not sure what the Prius HID's are but I installed 4300K in my 4runner and I've been really happy with my choice. They're really bright and white. The higher #'s...6000K, 8000K...are supposed to be more blue/purple. I attached some photos, not the best but hope they help.

    What GPS Do you use?

    I use the Magellan Maestro 4050+. All about that real time traffic.

    Do you like the non-functioning hood scoop?

    I like the Hood Scoop, although instead of the hood scoop, I wouldn't mind a shaker box. For the most part, the spoiler is also non-functioning.

    So, this is what happens when a 4runner gets t-boned

    maybe the monster truck wasn't able to jump over all the cars.

    Debating over 80w SPP fog light install

    I was using some generic 70 bulbs. They lasted a year for me. I recently lost the left one. It was a nice yellow when it was working. I didn't realize that I should have been using 55W bulbs.

    Gas Tank Warning Light

    damn it! they should tell you that you have 3 gallons left when the light turns yellow. Or atleast give you a sensor that is correct to how many miles you can still drive. i'm the idiot that freaks out and finds the nearest gas station, praying that i don't stall along the way. it would look...

    Where to place the Navigation Unit

    I just ordered my navigation unit! Magellan 4050+...WooHoo! But where to install it? I'm not a big fan of sitting it in the middle of my windshield. It does make the sense there...but I think it looks much cooler on the left side of my windshield. Coolness points do matter. Has anyone else...

    would you like a green 4runner?

    i meant green color... not an electric 4runner! I think that Toyota should offer a green 4runner again. Like the 3rd gens. Why don't they have a green one now? A nice dark green metallic or mica would look nice. Would you consider purchasing your 4runner in green if you had the option?
