I agree with powered base and manual recline being the perfect set-up (I had in my '13 tahoe). There's too many times when I need full recline quickly (usually to grab something at a stop light).
Looks great. I sprayed everything underneath with the sheep oil (forgot the name) before a winter trip to Colorado, and $400 is a really really good deal-- and looks like they did a great job.
On other forums, the consensus was that it's the aggressive tread and not the rotational inertia (from the greater mass) that impacts mileage-- at least from several old guys who'd been around a while. So that's what convinced me to go w/ the Falkens over Toyos. I was really close. We really...
Ended up going with the Falken Wildpeak AT4 (despite what the website said in January, the AT4's *are* available in 275/70r18. I spoke with the manufacturer and the AT4's are the successor and 'better in every respect' than the AT3's ).
Here's what I put in notes column in the attachment...
So I haven't taken time to read all 6 pages, but came here to report the same complaint.
This lag contributed to a fender-bender yesterday (!). I was stopped at the light on a HWY feeder road, and a guy in an suv was to my left in the U-turn only lane, which was backed-up, so he was also...
Free stuff: I'm not longer using this MMB (replaced with carlinkit). It still works fine-- updated and has Disney Plus-- it just doesn't consistently give you full 12" screen (it does sometimes). Let me know if someone would use it, and I'll mail it to you for the cost of postage. Otherwise...
Thanks for starting the thread. I know after the investment in Navicks, there's really no going back, but just FWIW, after purchasing 5 or 6 of these boxes and trying them, the Carlinkit (the one everyone has been posting about lately) is working without a hitch for the past 3 weeks. (I guess...
Sorry I don't have a useful answer, but just to avoid frustration, you may have to manage your expectations with these boxes. When I saw your post, I remembered that mine won't display any other locality besides Schenzen, China, so if you get 5 minutes of correct time, you may be ahead of the pack.
Alright I installed the bulletpoint mount in order to get some #$%^ cupholders in my 6-passenger F150. I've never done anything like this before (my driving is not Go-Pro worthy, and I have enough clutter in my truck that I like having a clean looking dash), BUT, if it's worth a couple of...
@ryman I had the same beef. This doesn't completely fix it, but after tinting with the premium UV-blocking film on the back windows and rear glass, there are fewer complaints from back-seat land.
Update, I bought the bulletpoint kit and a cupholder with a compatible ball mount to try this solution, but was hoping someone had figured out something else before drilling / trying it this weekend.
Any others who carry three upfront invented a solution?
... the f150forum guys are trying .
Here's the summary I did for myself. I confined choices to 275 to try to maintain mpg's, and I wanted an extra inch of height b/c my truck is not lifted or leveled and I feel like needs a little more clearance when crawling (over curbs at the mall). I should prob grab the SL Grabber ATx's like...
I spent hours researching this yesterday. Best I can tell (from on here and Tacoma forums ad naseum) the weight isn't impacting mileage as much as the added rolling resistance of aggressive tires might (just unscientifically weighting people's anecdotes and opinions). As much time as people...
