Settings on the entertainment screen, not the dashboard.

It has an intermittent wiper setting. On occasion, I have had low and intermittent swap and had to fiddle with the switch. I don't recall having the wipers go from off to on.

If you are talking about the stock lower engine cover that comes on the TRD Offroad, that is composite not aluminum. I'm not sure if any trim comes with an aluminum skid plate. You would also need a front crossmember to bolt it to. There are various manufactures that make one. NYTOP has one but...

In the OP picture the left side is a towing hook and the right side is a tie-down. If you have an OR you get 2 towing hooks. As far as recovery rating, they aren't. I'm seeing 10,000 lb bandied about but nothing official. In looking at the hooks closely I think the weak point is going to be the...

Going to play follow the leader with my nephew and a couple of brothers so I pulled the spare from underneath the bed. Looking up I see a lot of expensive looking fragile cr*p that I'd really like to not have to replace. Also, the hitch is like the tailhook on a carrier plane, anything over 12"...

This. If you habitually toss it somewhere in the vehicle, eventually you are going to walk off without. And then anybody can walk up, unlock, and drive away.

Close the latches with a screwdriver and then check whether the handle opens the latches. If not, the problem is inside the door somewhere. If the latches open normally (not sticking or needed multiple pulls on the handle) then look at how the latches are aligned with the striker.

But they did recall the safety.😁

It's possible the OP won the bad part lottery. I'm not putting any money on that though.

Yeah, unless a programmer changes the bad code while working on something higher in priority it's not likely to get fixed. Look at the problem with the fuel gauge "sticking". That, as I understand it, happens on the Tundra as well. Here's how I deal with it. 1. One time only. Do this while in...

Glad you didn't get hurt over this. I've had the "pleasure" of feeling the brake pedal squish all the way to the floor and replacing a brake line by the side of the road. On the plus side, brake systems have 2 separate circuits, so you still had the front brakes.

You should be more than nervous. Check for leaking fluid ASAP. Then get it to the dealer.

The front plate is the one that needs the crossmember.

I live at 6,600 feet and I typically get over 24 driving nearby. That's a max speed of 65 and minimal stops. When I hit the interstate (75mph), it drops to around 21. Worst I ever noted was 13.7 on a 50-mile stretch of interstate at 75 because of a nasty head wind.

That's not the "start stop" that everyone complains about. That's just how Hybrids work. There is no delay to re-start the engine before you can go again because the electric motor is capable of moving the vehicle immediately.

This goes back a ways but my recollection of the recommended way to do this was: 1. Thin the paint if it is not already thin. 2. Clean the area and make sure that there is no more loose paint. Don't sand it smooth. 3. Take a paper match (see how old the instructions are😊) and use the torn end as...

Last scratch included a tail light. I didn''t fix that scratch either. Edit: I did replace the tail light. It was expensive😭

Mine got a little thinner yesterday. Where did I put that can of gray primer...

Yeah. It's normal. But it is a bit freaky when you're sleeping in the bed and it goes on and on and on and on. I recommend a battery booster just in case.

How's the connectivity on that StarLink when you are off the beaten track? I don't off-road much (unless you count dirt/gravel roads) but I've been 20+ miles past cell phone reception, and I was considering a Sat phone. Starlink sounds more versatile.
