I used the OEM transfer case skid even though the instructions said to dispose of it.

Yep. I live in a mountain state. It can’t be for CAFE standards. Is it a space issue in the Aisin transmissions? I’ve rebuilt a few manual trans. That’s the only reason I can think of.

I’ve found if you stick your leg out and push backwards it helps! I have a JTR MT with 35s and it’s much better (lower gears) than my Tacoma TRDPro. I guess it’s a matter of scale.

Yeah, Hwy 4 was fun sometimes. I had a Tacoma then, and never had a problem. The Highway Patrol used to stop people if they didn't have chains or snow tires.

We used to XC ski at Bear Valley. I experienced some huge dumps there. We don't get quite as much in New Mexico.

Had to quit running due to years of marathons and half-marathons in my 20s and 30s, then mtn bike racing in my 40s and 50s. Hike nearly every day in New Mexico and do trail work on the same trails.

10,000 ft elevation on Mount Taylor New Mexico. We cut our own tree with a NF permit.

We cut our trees in the Cibola National Forest on Mount Taylor, New Mexico at 10,000 ft elevation each year. They are Colorado blue spruces with blue tips on the needles.

No problems. I only paid the deductible.

I get get wind noise from both sides.

My insurance uses Safelite and they replaced it with an OEM windshield.

Have a nice day.

Yeah, it will take time. We installed rooftop solar and got 36% off the cost in the next years taxes. It's cheaper than you think and you can kiss the utility goodbye. Ours (6.23 kW) will be paid for in less than six years, and in the meantime no utility payments even in mid-summer in New Mexico.

One of the best off-road and on-road tires I've ever had.

Well, since many states are going 50+% renewable, and many of us have rooftop solar, then I agree, and it will be easy to do. However, all electric isn't yet feasible. PHEV makes more sense until the batteries can be quickly recharged.

Beer (craft beer) is fine most days, but for a turkey dinner a light white wine, preferably from one of our local vintners, is my choice.

Yeah I was in the same boat. My wife loved it, and when it was delivered, I was immediately won over. Waxed it the first week and never looked back.

Well, that makes me feel better about my JTR mileage. I get about 16 in town and about 18 highway (if I stay below 70 mph). I have 35" tires. Add about 10% to that and it's close to the EPA mileage on the sticker. My ESS has had a warning (the A with a !) for a couple of months and hasn't...

I had a 2015 BMW Z4 and when you turned it off, it stayed off. Perhaps that can't be the case anymore.

Goodyear Wrangler Ultraterrain 35X12.50 R17 E series. Only sold by Discount Tire. I've used them for years on my Tacoma and now JTR. Great in snow, ice, and the heavy rains we get during the monsoon season. The hang together off-road as well.
