    Avid Power, I got it off Amazon. Watched a lot of videos. I used the lowest setting for polishing and waxing.

    Thanks PhitoNerd. That info is most helpful. I’m still on my O.E.M. battery in my ‘21 model SR5, but plan on switching to an AGM type when this one goes KaPut.

    I wish I had floor shift, makes it feel more like how a truck is supposed to feel.

    One of my favorite mods! Other than the stitching fading a bit, mine is still going strong after being on there for 5 years now.

    Finished up the valve cover gaskets....made my mind up to get some arm protectors/sleeves.....
    I also replaced the PCV..That did make a difference in the way it ran I think.
    I also wonder at all the foam around the intake and such.

    Not much of a mod, but found a kid’s memory foam pillow on Amazon that fits the center console pretty well.

    12vsolutions remote start w/long range fob installed. Yes it is a little more expensive than a true DIY setup but it is literally plug and play. Not a single wire cut. 10 minute install. The long range remote is great, I have replaced my factory fob with it (only got about 50-100ft due to LED lights). Zero complaints about the whole system.

    Also got my VLED puddle lights installed. Tied into cargo lights so I have switch control.

    Also got my cracked windshield replaced. Next step is a ceramic tint up front to help with FL heat.

    Finally found a cup holder for my 64oz hydro flask…it’s a tight fit but I’m going to heat up the rubber and stretch it out.

    I'm sure I've passed you on the road then. Finished up a big project inside MacDill about a year ago. Was going there daily for about a year. Haven't been inside the gate in a while though.

    Got a new windshield and promptly had it tinted. 50% ceramic on the whole thing and a 5% banner/sun visor at the top 10 inches.

    She was filthy from a week of sitting 3 feet from a dirt/gravel road as log trucks drove by and it was what I had available at 6 in the morning. I like her to look good when I go to do my grocery shopping.

    I got some new rubber on the ol girl since the Big Foot ATs finally got close to the wear bars and kind of annoying with the cupping..

    275/70/18 KO2's are looking and feeling great (I'll try to snap a picture tomorrow), but the Damn tire light is on now :(

    Shop shoved in a few more Psi and said the light might need a few miles...cuz they were closing.

    This is kind of annoying considering I spent $350 on new sensors from Toyota, and the shop ensured they could perform the proper installation/programing.

    Hopefully get it figured with the shop sometime soon.

    I have my light on now after getting my tire fixed and sensor replaced.
    The shop shows on their tool that the computer is registering all four tires, but I am missing a spare. Not sure if the spare normally has a sensor or not?
