Entirely new tire just for a screw?

Here in CA tireshops would consider the puncture that the OP posted as being in the shoulder of the tire and thus unrepairable for liability purposes. I guess you could keep the tire and patch it yourself, but the shop will not do it for you.
 
hit me up if youre ever trying to hit up hollister or carnegie boss

I'm down! def wanna hit some trails soon

I was flabbergasted as well


Just plug the tire and use the new one as a spare. Hopefully you kept it.

Nah, I'm ditching the 265's for 285's soon

I finally got around to slapping some 3M on the front part of my hood between the sunroof and the windhshield. What bugs me about this bit is the foremost edge closest to the top of the windshield. I couldn't get the 3M to stick to that part. It kept lifting because it was wet. I wasn't sure if I could leave the 3M unattached and wait for the windshield to dry off and then try sticking the edge down. My thought was that, if it wasn't possible, I wouldn't be able to lift unattached edge off to cut the excess off. So, I cut it off and while 93% of the desired part is covered in 3M, there's that lip/edge that isn't covered and it's bugging the shit out of me.

I pulled a random pic off google to show the lip that I'm referring to. The yellow line.

brought down the resale value and cut the front bumper, painted and installed skids and sliders (which took WAY longer than anticipated), installed Rago center console MOLLE panels, and some other small things.

2019 -> 2020

I think there is a thread on this. They (Victory 4x4) are aware of the issue. I'd contact them and see what they say.
 
Prinsu Full Length no drill + iKamper + ARB Awning

Got these all on over the weekend, quick test camp down in Pinnacles NP. iKamper really is an awesome tent!

Suspension, Snorkel, Drawers and Dual Battery incoming!

Ok, so I did get it a little dusty today, but it's more of what my 4Runner and Toyota did for ME that I did with it/them today.

I reached about 4600 miles and not only did the 4R tell me it's near its first service, but I also got an email from Toyota telling me to get my ass in for a service. It seems obvious the vehicle is transmitting data...not sure I like that.

Do you have the Toyota app on your phone? If so, then it updates at least daily, if not every trip, for miles, tire pressures, etc. It's not too difficult to see that with the info on your phone and if you are using any connected services, then your phone is going to forward data to Toyota. Your phone is transmitting/sharing lots more data about you and your activities than what is coming from your Toyota. I don't see why the Toyota data share would bother you.

Finally burned through my first fill up on my new Long Range America auxiliary fuel tank. I drove back home from Nevada and clocked over 100 miles on the Mojave trail & some offshoots and most of the rest of my driving was at 75 to 80mph, so by no means was I hypermiling in anyway. When I gassed up today, the fuel light had just turned on and I had traveled 714 miles from my first fill up. $166 and 55.4 gallons to fill back up. I'm so happy to be done with my Rotopax! Thanks so much to Khris from LRA for hooking me up during a time when international logistics are in pandemic mode and to Ralph at JPR automotive for the install!

Strap the spare down in the rear?
 
Installed a center console molle panel from victory 4x4.

I’m not familiar with molle panels, other than seeing them after I joined this forum after my purchase of my T4R last year. I’ve mostly seen them in the rear side windows. I like your application as when I’m out exploring I always carry, but if the gun is in the center console borders on concealed. Is this panel precut and easy to install?

OK, before I posted this, I went to Victory’s website and now am researching this. Thanks for your photo, which spurred me to check this out for myself.
 
One big reason I refuse to have a so called "smart" phone. Yeah I know the car transmits stuff regardless and other things do as well like a smart TV or anything linked to the internet but phones and ridiculous crap like an Alexa are the worst.
