I didn't say Honda. In fact, my 2006 Honda Pilot had more problems over 12 years than my 1999 Mercury Mountaineer did over the same length of time. Toyota is a different story altogether. Their reliability is undeniable, but so is their lack-of-fun factor.
I realize I'm in the minority, but I'm leaning toward Touring as well. I don't like the glasspack / "blat" sound. I just like rumble and roar. Back in the early 90's, I had Flowmaster 3-chambers on my 5.0 Mustang. I liked that and would not want any more sound than that. It was not...
PROS: Very nice looking . . . love the powerplant
CONS: Pricing is insane . . . using the term "BREAKDOWN" in a review of a Chrysler product is just bad ju-ju.
(UPDATE: Now I see that base pricing actually starts at ~$70k, not $103k. Saw the website images. Not surprising that they are...
I have to disagree. The resale value on Toyotas is so high because they are that much more reliable and require less $$$ in repairs. But you can buy a 5 year-old Mercedes dirt cheap because it probably needs 20 sensors replaced costing a total of $10k+. My 11-yr old RAV4 with 140k miles needs...
Well, I got the microphone working, but something isn't quite right. I can hold the talk button, say "call Joe", then I hear "calling Joe" over the speakers, then once it dials, it starts using the speaker phone on the phone itself instead of working through the truck speakers. I'll keep trying.
1. MDS and START/STOP
So I was under the impression that using the gear limit selector on the steering wheel (i.e. setting it to "8" instead of "D") would disable BOTH start/stop and MDS. In reality, it only disables MDS. My observations:
MDS is definitely disabled when you do this...
Sure, there are some CAI's that will throw a code because it puts things outside the parameters within which the ECU was programmed to adjust. Absolutely a fair point.
There is so much misinformation out there on this. The ECU senses the amount of airflow and adjusts accordingly. This has been the case ever since mass airflow sensors have been used (over 30 yrs). If not, our trucks would not run right at high altitude. Granted, they lose significant power...
