    Got rear ended - Bumper and Exhaust Casualties

    Yesterday I got rear ended by one of our local Police officers. It wasn't really his fault as he got hit from behind and was pushed into me while stopped at a stoplight. Other than a new bumper, my passenger side exhaust got messed up a little bit. What surprised me the most was how easily the...

    Extra key fob

    Mine tells me "Key Fob Not Detected" at least two or three times a week, so I might be screwed.

    Radio Ghost Image While Backup Camera Is Active

    Naw man. This is an extra feature. It's like the 12" split screen but smaller and a lot less cool.

    Radio Ghost Image While Backup Camera Is Active

    I won't take it in for just this. But I'll add it to the squealing brakes, sticking drivers door lock cylinder, glove box trim ambient light strip, and intermittent "Key Fob Not Detected" issue.

    Radio Ghost Image While Backup Camera Is Active

    I noticed a new "feature" this morning. I'm not sure if anyone else's backup camera has this upgrade but I get to see what's playing on my radio while my backup camera is active. Yes, it changes as the radio information changes; it's not "burnt in". I took it out of reverse several times...

    Tire size for 3.5” ready lift

    I'm in the same boat with wanting to keep my factory 22" wheels. The size I've been considering is 285/55 22. That gives you about a 34.25" tire with the factory width. There's no doubt that a larger tire will impact power and MPG but that can be mitigated, slightly, with keeping a smaller...

    Speedometer calibration

    The one I had on my Tundra had a USB port to use when making config changes or updating the units firmware. When I installed it, I put a long USB cable on it and tucked the cable into the kick panel when I wasn't using it. Installation was a pain in the *** because it had to go behind the...

    Just got my ReadyLift 3.5" SST kit. Need recommendations on wheels and tires.

    Great choice. You've got a great looking truck.

    Speedometer calibration

    I used a Hypertech speedometer calibrator to re-calibrate my speedometer on my 2012 Toyota Tundra. On my Tundra it worked very well and was fairly easy to adjust using a laptop computer. I would make small tire size changes in the unit until the speedometer was accurate to a GPS. If your OCD (I...

    Accept on screen after starting

    I use the this nag screen as an opportunity to turn my seat cooler fans up to level three (since the settings are visible on the nag screen). If I can't make the screen go away I'll do my best to make it a feature for my enjoyment.

    About how big is the sub box? I'm trying to plan for how much polyfill to add.

    New member on the fence between 1500 and Tundra...

    I can understand the principle FCA is pushing. After all it all comes down to the bottom line. But... These inconsistencies in production quality show in the sales price dealerships accept during the purchase of the vehicle, as well as the residual value in the vehicles. It's a shame because...

    New member on the fence between 1500 and Tundra...

    Exactly what Kramersp said. I came from a 2012 Tundra Limited and Tundras just can't compare to the modern truck market. What I will give to Toyota, that is noticeably below expectation in my Longhorn, is fit and finish. And it's the small things like dash speaker grills not sitting flush, a...

    New Ram Owner - Pearland, Texas

    I started my process with Patrick as I did my initial inquiry via the internet. Patrick gave me an appointment time and when I got to the dealership David was waiting. If you do move forward with Southfork and you need me to go do something for you there I can. Like I said, they're really close...

    New Ram Owner - Pearland, Texas

    I bought one they had on the lot. My sales rep was a guy named David Alcantar. He's a sales guys, no real power to deal. If you need a point of contact I'd go with Marco Compean (New Car Sales Manager) [email protected] 713-955-5421. The finance guys don't have anything to do with the...

    I'm still getting used to it. It's definitely a big change from my 2012 Tundra.
