    Replacing Antenna Base

    Thanks to all who contributed to this thread. I tried the trim technique but had issues with that so I went whole hog and disassembled the fender to get to the antenna. To do this I had to: 1. Remove the 10mm screws holding the fender liner and trim in 2. Drill out the pita black fasteners 3...

    Interior Lighting mod

    Great advice on the tape. That worked pretty well. I performed this mod this weekend. Not to difficult. I did the map lights, dome light, rear hatch lights, and mirror puddle lights. Used the bulbs listed on page 4 of this thread. Two things I noticed: 1. The map light bulbs are directional...

    S MODE automatic transimission

    Hi all, I noticed that no matter what speed I am going if I use s mode(tiptronic style) on my automatic transmission, it always shifts or at least says its in 4th gear. Is this correct? My girlfriends car has a similar transmission(mazda 3), and it shifts into the current gear, which makes far...

    5K maint:dealer didn't rotate tires

    Tires I just had my 5k done this week. My service rep said it was basically a tire rotation and an inspection. Looks like they skipped 50%. I agree with the other posters about treating it as a simple mistake and asking them to correct it.

    Desert Trip Pictures I snapped a few quick photos on my way out of the Reno area. We go out there and shoot some pretty amazing guns in the desert once in a while. Good times for sure.

    4runner Dirt Bike Haul The 4 runner performed admirably today when hauling the dirt bike out to the OHV park. Good times. Man I dig this truck. Its a little bit taller than the escape so pushing the bike up takes a little more of a start, but works like a charm. Drives like it is not even there.

    Tying tailgate down

    I like that Mike. I think I will look into creating that tie down system. Thanks for the idea!

    Tying tailgate down

    I agree with you guys. Unfortunately a full sheet of plywood is wider than the open window. Definitely will use the window when possible though.

    Tying tailgate down

    I was curious if anyone has figured out a good way to tie down the tail gate when carrying cargo which is sticking out and not allowing the hatch to close. For example I carried home a sheet of t111 siding which is ~8 feet long and 3 feet wide. I didn't have far to drive and I did this all the...
