You may be surprised how much your body moves during a crash impact. I responded to a vehicle crash one day (actually happened right behind me as I pulled into an apartment complex to go use their bathroom - talk about bad timing) where the at-fault driver (crossed a 4-lane divided highway in...

I'm still mad that I called my dealership a day or two before that warranty ran out, and they never called me back to order the replacement dashboard. :Cry:

I've been slowly dumping some money in my 2003 SR5 the last few months. First I replaced the suspension, then the rear brakes and an oil change. Started getting written estimates for the timing belt as I was under the assumption the 4.7L V8 had a chain, not a belt (that's what I get for not...

I just grabbed a set of 2022 Tacoma Off-Road take-offs with the factory Goodyear Wrangler Territory Kevlar A/T's on them for $800 today, including the full-size spare with matching rubber, for my '03 SR5. Can't wait to get them put on!

I just requested my first quote for the timing belt being replaced, local dealership must be smoking crack. Sucks, because I don't really trust them anymore either - the service advisor I liked and trusted there probably got fired for telling people they could get stuff done cheaper elsewhere...

2003 SR5 4WD (4.7L V8) model with 164,000 miles on it, paid $5,000 in 2015. Still driving it in 2021, now with 245,000 miles on it. I wish I still had a take-home vehicle for work, it would have a lot less additional mileage. I've dropped about $3000 into it (outside of normal oil, tires...

Nowhere near winning the contest, but I'm at 245,102 on my 2003 SR5 with the 4.7L V8 as of this morning. I had been toying with getting out of it and into something newer, but the price of new cars right now makes me want to keep fixing whatever breaks and continue on with what I've got. The...

Is the remote button supposed to work to roll the rear window back up? Mine will roll down, but not back up, via the key fob remote. The dash button works to send it up or down (including the auto function once I release the dash button). 2003 4Runner SR5, for reference

2003 4Runner SR5, 4.7L V8 4x4, 221k miles. Mine is having the same issue. I'd previously recharged it every couple years (2015, 2017) and had no problems otherwise, it was always freezing cold. I started out having only AC on the passenger side, then it slowly faded out to warm/hot from every...

Unfortunately, they probably won't care... most aftermarket modifications aren't covered by regular insurance policies.
