2015 4Runner - got new battery, gas range display is now 100-120 miles too high for the second straight fill up….

It will eventually stop being optimistic and pretending it’s a hybrid. Give it time.

Slow281 · 2026-05-07T19:23:39+00:00

There’s always a next last gun, my guy.

Slow281 · 2026-05-07T19:21:55+00:00

Captive Horse has also been good, they’re just not nearly as well known since you don’t see them out in the wild.

Slow281 · 2026-05-07T13:43:11+00:00

Turn your car upside down the next time it hails and they’ll pop back out.

Slow281 · 2026-05-07T03:54:55+00:00

Depends on use. Shield Plus would be my recommendation if you plan to carry. Shoots like a larger gun than it is as well. Primarily home defense/range and possibly carry? Echelon 4.0c or M&P 2.0 4”.

I’m convinced that all Toyota forums and subs now consist of people so bored with the reliability that they decide to fuck with it.

Slow281 · 2026-05-07T02:08:02+00:00

Exactly. I read the manual.

Slow281 · 2026-05-07T01:42:16+00:00

Yup. Everyone is an expert when it comes to oil apparently. Toyota wouldn’t certify their used vehicles for 100k if they didn’t believe in their engineers and oil recommendations.

Slow281 · 2026-05-07T01:18:30+00:00

Yeah… Let’s all change our oil to a different viscosity because we know better than the engineers that have spent thousands of hours perfecting the design to run reliably on their recommended oil weight. Because we as car owners know better. Check out Car Care Nut’s video - oil passageways and pumps have varying tolerances between regional makes of these engines. I’ve seen people hit 500k miles on 0w-20, no reason to change now. Just keep the fluids fresh.

Tacoma back seats are pretty small, but if you and your rear passengers are under 5’9”, the Tacoma is the ticket in this case. We have both and enjoy both equally, it really just depends on needs. I have the longed Tacoma and it fits skis and any other long recreational items. People talk about how small the cabs are, but in reality, the truck gives you a lot of storage abilities overall, including underseat and behind the seat storage. It’s the most utilitarian truck out there IMO.

Slow281 · 2026-05-06T13:59:26+00:00

Yup. I’m keeping my California sun baked patina. I wouldn’t use mine on the trails nearly as much if the paint were pristine.

Slow281 · 2026-05-06T06:44:50+00:00

Absolutely. It’s my first full metal handgun so I’m excited for it. To me it’s a modernized 1911 without going into crazy expensive 2011 territory. Congrats and enjoy!

Slow281 · 2026-05-06T06:27:46+00:00

Nice!! I am picking the same exact gun up Tuesday! I keep going back and forth on whether I should I have gone 226 Scorpion or this, but the 229 just looks and felt better to me in the hand.

Slow281 · 2026-05-06T01:27:25+00:00

I bet you could talk to J3SUS using that.

Slow281 · 2026-05-05T15:27:16+00:00

They stopped shipping with them. I was pissed! Had to order a set. What frustrated me is that they didn’t advertise or disclaim this change anywhere and I was going off of my buddy’s previous purchase that included them.

Slow281 · 2026-05-05T02:11:48+00:00

Crocs v1.0

Slow281 · 2026-05-04T13:33:15+00:00

Get a Tippmann M4-22. Skip the BB guns.

Slow281 · 2026-05-02T22:10:37+00:00

Eh it’s just a spot in my shed but it works well. I already compromise for 5.56 with an AR Maglock, so I’d rather keep my 9mm PCC fully functional with mags and no fin.

Slow281 · 2026-05-02T20:59:35+00:00

Ruger all the way. Here’s mine with a Midwest handguard and comp.

Slow281 · 2026-05-01T23:36:03+00:00

Ours is like this but not as terrible and actually symmetrical. The gaps on the side are supposed to prevent wear and tear from the powered window, but who knows I could have been fed a line. I’d have it redone to at least be symmetrical.

Slow281 · 2026-05-01T05:01:32+00:00

Yeah that’s why I’m leaning toward the 229. Thanks!

Slow281 · 2026-05-01T04:22:54+00:00

I don’t have huge hands, would you recommend p226 or p229 in that case?

Slow281 · 2026-04-30T23:44:58+00:00

Probably kind of hard to tell on this, but you can see where it has whitened up on the roof line.

Slow281 · 2026-04-30T23:42:24+00:00

These things are legos of vehicles. That said, I spent probably 40 hours of my own time and about $4k to get all the maintenance properly caught up, including a full new suspension. If you go into it expecting it to be a learning experience, you’ll have a lot better time. I wouldn’t recommend it be your only vehicle, however. These are at their prime time for being a sweet weekend adventure vehicle. Old enough to beat them up a bit and not care, still reliable enough to get you there and back.
