I had an older DJI and a Parrot Bebop 2. From my limited experience the major difference seems to be flight time, flight range and quality meaning length of recording etc. The Parrot was more expensive but I got a really great flight time with recording capability whereas in a cheaper drone I...

I think used in the right context, where you used it is great. Some channels do have a tendency to overuse drone and or stock footage and I don't find those as authentic. But having some drone footage throughout the video is great. A good example of this is driving sports with Ryan he uses drone...

That's the same one I saw a great deal on recently, good to know.

I could very well be wrong but I feel like in other videos I've watched reviewers mention it is not something you can turn off. I'm sure there's a way to disable it somehow I would check the more hardcore Toyota forums It will come from a place like that first. Edit: I was curious and dug into...

@testerdahl , really solid video. A couple questions for me from it.. how did you feel about the power delivery? I've heard mixed reports ... Nobody that I've seen has said they don't like it but a couple of guys felt like it's a little slow to get going considering it has 430 lb of torque...

There are some other common issues with the new Tacoma, TRDJohn covers some of them specifically the service/check engine light from the grill shudder system and a couple others. That's what caused a dealer visit for him, apparently a fix is coming. Again, minor and I agree the 24 Tacoma launch...

I think that's a pretty common problem with many vehicles these days unfortunately. I had to look up and walk my buddy through resetting his infotainment on his 22 F250, since then he's had to do it two more times. I don't remember now but a combination of hilding two or three buttons at startup...

It's hard not to draw that conclusion. But what I think they really did is, for the first time in their history, try to design a modern truck on par with the big 3 in tech, options and interior features and spent too much money in that area which caused the truck(s) to be engineered to close...

The roof issue was the Silverado/Sierra, not the Colorado/Canyon. The stop sale was to ensure the software fix was working as intended and completed before any more customers took delivery. Pretty stand up by GM if you ask me. Andre's software caused a fervor from what I remember but this forum...

I agree? That wasn't what you asked me though and not what I tried to answer. I also don't think I've called it an outright failure, critical absolutely but not a failure. We don't know enough yet to really make any sort of a determination. You asked me three questions: 1) Why do I think...

The part I don't get about this is all of the people saying the "engine would have blown" or "better the clutch than the transmission." What should have happened is the rear tires should have locked up and scared the shit out of the occupants. That's it. I'm teaching my son to drive a manual...

I agree. The thing I find interesting is that the conversation is even happening on a Toyota enthusiast site.

He becomes a full time driver July 31st, so just practicing the manul a lot for now. It's running great though, good truck. Every time I'm in it I'm reminded of how much trucks have become like bigger, lifted cars over the last 20 years.

@testerdahl The talk on the Yota forums is that not only couldn't the MT handle 8hp extra (Which is just weird) but that the torque curve is strung much further out than the AT. Instead of 317 @ 1,700 it's 310 at 2,800.

I agree with you about Sheldon, but nanny controls and cost cutting have been a staple of Toyota engineering for a long time now. Sheldon builds what they tell him he can build, he has very little control.

I don't want to put words in your mouth Tim but I feel like you told us that Hybrid Tundra was affected but not recalled because it doesn't lose motive power due to the hybrid system so it's not a "major" safety concern. I think you have to cover the facts and mention the quality and ongoing...

It doesn't sound like this one affected any owners, luckily, and only 4 Colorado engines. GM is replacing all of the affected engines with complete swaps. Hopefully, Toyota does the same for Tundra owners and not just a short block swap.

(Edit, sorry for the long winded answer) There are transmission issues popping up on the forums specifically with the manual transmission, I think that's why videos have been made and it's being discussed. We don't know if the manual transmission issues are specifically due to the clutch or...

I thought it interesting that Toyota told them that they had to take power from the engine to work with the manual because it just flat out couldn't handle the power, seems like another pretty close design tolerance. I know we knew this before but it's interesting. Either way, two of the major...

Mine are the GM high clearance and it works great but it is easier on a lower step for sure. Out expedition has the auto drop down steps and I do like them but honestly we fight them constantly to keep them going up and down smooth. It's only 4 years old. I have to hit them with lubricant...
