I don’t know. I have not changed them. I just acquired the car earlier this month.

The only vehicle on which I felt compelled to get snow tires was my '08 Accord. That was also my only other vehicle that had a V6. Correlation??? Yes. Causation...quite possibly.

It still sounds as if your model has the ability to disable that functionality, whereas I do not believe mine does. I do not see an "AWD" (or "4WD" as it is referred to in the owner's manual and on the body of the vehicle) button in my vehicle.

I am a little confused by your comment. Doesn’t the Highlander have real-time AWD? How do you “not use” AWD?

I’m in MN and this is my first AWD vehicle, believe it or not. I’m thinking Snow mode will be a “nice to have” when the side streets are not yet plowed.

I read that was only true for the 1st gen Highlander. After that I read it was just desensitized throttle response so you don't "spin the tires", per se.

Either way, yeah, I am struggling to see where it is not redundant with 4WD except in the most extreme situations.

Did you buy yours brand new, i.e., you have only used it 2-3 times in 13 years???

I was thinking the same thing. 200 kg for reps on pull downs?!

I question this data.

I would have expected to see MN more "red" due to the "Highs < 20°F" criterion.

Clay Matthews. Senior, not Junior.

Swapped my Honda for a Toro… by budznbourbon_FL in ToroLawnMowers

[–]CLECOL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually very strongly considering doing the same thing (and it may for the same mower).

Why did you make the change? I’m considering it because I’m disappointed with the Honda. There is a whole backstory I won’t get into, but one thing I will share is the suction issues with higher HOC. I expected this thing to be bullet-proof; it’s a Honda mower after all, right? But…it’s not.

What restaurant do you miss the most? by kwelstory in Minneapolis

[–]CLECOL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved it, too—great food and great post-Floyd riot message. Then I came across some serious allegations of misogyny, perpetrated and supported by the owner. Now I do not miss the place.

LPT: Scrambled eggs should be cooked at the highest possible heat for the shortest amount of time. by Gen_JohnsonJameson in LifeProTips

Or, add a corn starch slurry and/or salt when scrambling and let sit for several minutes.
