I just put a Sherpa on, and I'm pretty happy so far. To be fair, all I've put on it has been an awning. I liked that you take less of the vehicle apart with it, and I don't plan on loading it very heavily - just EZ up, hammock stand, maybe some gas and water.

It's ordered. I can't wait to be happy!

Perhaps I need to learn how to use websites. ;-)

I've been waiting for this sale. I'm interested in the Matterhorn. Last week, it cost $849. Today, the 4R racks page says it's $849, starting as low as $721.65. Now, I go to the Matterhorn page, and it says it's $989, marked down to $840.65. It shows up that price in the cart as $840.65...

Here she is.

Larsen NMO-2/70 and a Breedlove NMO mount are on the way. Now to find my hammer and chisel so I can mount the NMO on the roof.:lmao:

I recently got a ham radio installed in my '98 4R. I currently have a mag mount dual band antenna on top. The coax runs between the right passenger door and the body. It's probably not optimal because I'm getting kinks in the coax. I'm looking for a more permanent antenna and mount. I...

How did you mount the Yaesu? I just got an Icom IC-2730A, and I can't quite decide how to mount the control head.

My search abilities seem to be failing me, so I'll start a thread. I want to add a ham radio, maybe a CB, some USB charger ports, maybe some interior cargo area LED's, etc., and I'm trying to figure out how to wire it. I know that for the ham radio, I need to come directly from the battery...

Quick trip to the parking lot - I have a VIP ECU under the driver's seat. The little unit under the hood that was clicking the one time I had the hood open and was searching around does not appear to be the same as the glass breakage sensor in the link above. It has two plugs coming out...

Doing a little bit of searching on the forum, and I came across a link to this: alarm info My car locks the doors when you turn the key and unlocks when you turn it off or remove the key (can't remember). That's a feature of this alarm. I never had a fob. I may need to look further into the...

There's a sticker on the window that says "This vehicle protected by Toyota VIP vehicle intrusion protection," and there's a small plate on the parking brake cover with two lights and wires running from them. I've never seen them light up or noticed this thing do anything. Key is just a key...

Oh, I totally want it solved! Gremlins just laugh when they see me coming. More symptoms for the benefit of the diagnosticians: - With the key out, the lights stay on, as I said. If you turn the headlight knob to the parking lights, the headlights go off. - With the key out, the locks...

I have a '98 4R, 3.4, manual, SR5(?). I bought it about 2 years ago, and I've had this problem about 3 times. When I first bought it, a few times, the headlights would stay on after the key was out and the headlight switch turned off. My son alerted me to it an hour or so after I'd gotten...
