Just got a call from Toyota regarding my 2025 Tundra....

100%, $15 bucks on this is fine at this stage of the game for me

 

Does the OEM remote start leave the truck running indefinitely? Our Kia remote start will only run for 10 minutes, which in our Canadian winter is next to useless, but even worse it's dangerous in the summer with our dog in the car. Cancelled that "feature" awhile ago and will install an aftermarket.

 

If I use the app, the truck will shut off. If I use the 2 way fob, it stays on. I think if I use the oem fob itll also stay on, but I dont/cant use it when Im inside the house...range is piss poor, always has been. 2 way confirms the command, so I know it fired up...plus I car hear my lovely exhaust

 

why would you use remote start with the dog in the truck? wouldn't you just leave it running and turn off the auto off in a hour?

I wouldn't want one to run indefinitely, like until it runs out of gas?

I think you can cycle twice 10-15 mins each on the OEM one

 

You cant leave the engine running and lock the doors i believe. Oem rem start is good for 10 mins. My compustar is programmable 15 30 and 60 mins

 

cant lock it if you leave it running.

 

ok, never tried that

 

same for my kit.

 

Doesn't happen often, but occasionally you just run into a store / bank expecting to only be a minute but end up in a painfully long line. Car will run a long time at idle. Used to work up north on the oil rigs and we would just let our work trucks run 24 hours a day, pretty much had to at -55C. Since it's a Toyota forum, to stay on topic, I once let my 1982 Toyota pickup run for 3 days due to the extreme cold. And since it had a good old fashioned key, you could just lock the door with your spare key.

 

I pay the $15/month, and it doesn't bother me at all the service costs. However, what does bother me is the forced $15 for a "bundled" service. I'm sorry, but if you cannot get the service by itself, then it isn't a "bundle" to me. I only need the remote service, not the drive or music services we have to include. I choose the Drive feature in case the phone goes screwy I can still get navigation (which probably shouldn't cost anyway...but that's a different discussion).

 

Yotapraise thread turned into yotabash

 

bingo

 

Toyota has their eye off the ball. They should be calling ME and checking in with my overall satisfaction with my 1997 T-100 that I bought new and is still in the driveway as a daily driver. I won't even ask for a new truck as a reward for my loyalty.

YES. That is an ashtray (and cigarette lighter hidden behind the shifter handle).

 

real 4wd shift lever too, HA. had those

 

no real input here except DAMN!!! 38mpg??!!

 

Yes guys, toyota is sooooo bad, it is why you keep it and not trading it for GM or ford, THEY WILL DEFENETELLY LISTEN TOY YOUR WAINING AND BITCHING!

 

2 wrongs dont make a right

They all do it is never really an acceptable excuse in any situation.

 

Lol fanboy nonsense
