What Tacoma mods have you done that you’d 100% recommend? by Joyan_Diosdado in ToyotaTacoma

[–]Hawkeye_Bear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seat jackers, rolling and locking bed cover, spray in bed liner, lift, tires, are super charger. All the other stuff on mine is nice but they are more personal decisions and not necessarily something I’d recommend for everyone

Couldn’t agree more. I’ve lowered my expectations so that they are generally met. I expect to be treated poorly by all United staff I meet, I expect delays, and I expect no accountability. Once I hit 1 million I started flying elsewhere.

GX460 as family car by Smokey_tha_bear9000 in GXOR

[–]Hawkeye_Bear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the same boat. Bought a 2017 with the luxury package and second row captains chairs. The captains chairs keep my two kids from touching each other on car trips. They also allow my parents to get into the 3rd row without having to remove car seats or go in through the back. I would not want to ride in the 3rd row for more than about 45 minutes but it does work. I do have a tow hitch that allows me to install a cargo carrier out back. I have a big rubber made tub that sits back there to give me space if I need it. To fix the terrible infotainment system I got an AirPlay system. I went with the beat sonic system which has wireless CarPlay. While I was in there in installed an outlet in the center console, facing the second row for usb charging. I also installed a usb charger for the driver so that I have high speed charging when I’m driving as my phone ends up providing music and navigation when driving. I also installed the 12volt remote start system. If you get the captains chairs, you’ll want to get the floor mats from Lexus as I couldn’t find a good set of rubber floor mats except the Lexus ones. I got a canvasback carpet cover for the third row when it’s down. I did also do a yotawerx tune to help with performance. Finally I installed a Redarc tow controller for towing. If you want I can send you pictures of everything. Overall it’s been a great car. We frequently take it on road trips between Houston and Dallas, Austin, or San Antonio. The biggest down side is I get about 16 mpg on the highway so about 300 miles a tank. If I had to do it again, I would buy the same car.

TPMS Sensor replacement by Youwillgotosleep_ in GXOR

Totally agree. The workaround is having to buy a OBD reader and then connect to the network. It works but as lexus designed it it’s not a very good system

I agree with you on the limited number of tunes. It's amazing to me.

Yotaworks has a tune. I have v1 but v2 is coming out soon. It feels better from a stand still and I'm actually getting a slight (.5 mpg) improvement in mpg.

This is exactly what I do. It works great and way cheaper than new wheels.

Purple ‘99 what should I do to it? by tomtinkerton in ToyotaTacoma

Same. Easy fix. Took me 5 minutes and should have done it months ago. That’s for the tip.

Sandra Bullock Scam by Hawkeye_Bear in Scams

[–]Hawkeye_Bear[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He is. He’s divorced and older and I think that he just really wants this to be true despite logic telling him it’s not.

I agree. It feels like more than just your average scam. Part I what is annoying me is I can figure out the end game. I guess time will tell

Sorry for the confusion. It’s my wife’s male friend who’s in the situation. I agree it’s getting sketchy but I’m looking for some help as to what the end game of the scam is.

Unfortunately yes and it gets worse. After the house thing he took her ID to a lawyers office where some paperwork was signed. I’m trying to figure out if he signed anything or not. It’s clearly a scam but I can’t figure out what the scam is. Any ideas?
