Things your Tundra does that you didn't know

I'm pretty sure I tested this successfully a few weeks ago..but it isnt working now on the 2018 Platinum. Is there a feature that I need to change to get this working?

 

I just did it in my 2018. No problems, back up camera works great, truck just stays in neutral.

 

Video or it didn't happen! So, how did you build up the courage to try it? I don't think I can.

 

Ok, I'll admit it, I'm chicken to try this also.

 

I have a warranty so I was not worried... LOL! The engineers build in a lot of safety precautions these days to make them idiot proof. My Ram was the same way with the dial to shift gears. If I knew how to post a video, I would.

 

You could always upload to YouTube and post the link. I believe you though. I guess you were going over 25mph? Seems like I read that somewhere in this thread.

 

I hope this isn't just my truck, but when I open the tailgate I can let go and it has a "soft" drop. First time I ever had this feature.

 

Ya man, wasn't Toyota one of the first to implement this? If you look up inside the driver-side rear fender, you can see the strut. It's kinda like the ones that hold the hood open. They do eventually wear out and need to be replaced, just like the ones for the hood and most minivans.

 

Ok, thanks. It hurts too much to crawl around on the ground anymore. This getting old stuff SUCKS!

 

I don't mind being on the ground so much, it's the trying to get back up that I dislike.

 

Fill the gas tank up, your "miles till empty" will no change until you put it in drive.

 

Just read the thread on beast mode. Going right now to try it. If I'm not back on this thread in 15 minutes , just wait longer.

 

Have you seen her new Netflix show ???? She spends have te time in her underwear and is in better shape than when she was on Battlestar !

 

I noticed that you have yet to share the NAME OF THAT SHOW.

why would you want to do that to start with.

 

Double check your trailer connection.

Just noticed the pull ring for removing the sun visor from the clip. Yesterday was the first time I had to move the visor to the side window since I purchased my truck in July. I really need to pay more attention to my surroundings.

 

Is that what that is for because I use it for something different?

 

I assume it is a pull ring. I looked in the owners manual and there is no mention of it and I also looked on Toyota of Cool Springs parts website. No mention there either. Since the ring is right at the point where the clip is on both visors, I assume it is a pull ring.

What do you use it for?

 

I'll get a pic for you once the sun comes up.

 

GREAT thread ...

 

This was the first thing I thought this was for when I saw it.

If it's not, then it is now!

 

I see you have them hanging on the passenger side. My money is on pull ring. I would think sunglasses hanging on the driver's side would obstruct the view.

 

Looks like a member of the Fukarewe tribe

 

If I insert key to the door lock and hold it to the right it will roll all my windows down and roll them back up by holding it to the left.

 

Shut up...wonder how that would work on keyless?

 

I had no idea my windshield was heated until I was watching it be replaced and it had a wire hanging down. When I asked I was told it is the heater
