Barn doors are useful, but the post in the middle blocks vision. I kinda like having the gate for that reason. But I agree on ease of use nothing really beats the barn doors.

I forwarded the link you sent me to Steve and he already put out an update video.

I saw that. It's a really odd response from Toyota. I said in another thread it looks like they had ChatGPT write it.

I just saw this pop up on Bring a Trailer. They have over 400 pictures. It's in amazing shape. Hard to believe a 26 year old Suburban is out there in this condition with those miles on it. The pictures are a good trip down memory lane. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1998-chevrolet-suburban-27/

You should send the updated article to steve. He's good about making correction videos if something has changed.

I have only watched the first 2-3 minutes so far. Long enough to get the jist of what they are going to do in the video and also see the truck Tucker drives: 1987 Silverado. I hope they talk a little bit more about the Chevy in this video than just the intro. It sounds like it's gonna be...

God forbid they have to try and get an engine fixed via a warranty claim with Toyota. This article is starting to make the rounds about how Toyota denied a warranty claim on a blown GR Corolla engine. The explanation from Toyota is baffling. It actually looks like Toyota might have had ChatGPT...

I'm interested in what you found. Everything I find when I search is different than what you said. Did you find the actual patent somehow?

Wow. I would like to see what is in the patent. Ford should explain this one.

I've not been shy about sharing my skepticism of the tech in modern vehicles. I assume the vehicle in this video was still covered under warranty. Can you imagine the cost if it wasn't? Even a towing professional has issues recovering this hunk-o-junk. I can't imagine trying to tow one myself...

Do you think Ford didn't give info out ahead of time because of people previously leaking info before the embargo was over?

I've seen a couple videos of the 2025 model release event. Now that Ford is making the 4x4 (AWD) hybrid, I predict that thing will sell like hotcakes. I wouldn't be surprised if dealerships do markups even now while other models are being discounted. I'm going to test drive one when they hit the...

It was the transmission that overheated on the Chevy. Andre mentioned that in this video. I'm not sure the the Chevy had a trans cooler though.

It would be interesting to find out the cfm of the stock electric fan setup. I do like the fact the truck was smart enough to not boil over the coolant, but like I said, it seemed to got hot much faster than I expected. I’d also like to see a 2500 haul the same load up for comparison.

I'm not a big fan of most of the new technology on modern trucks. However, it looks like the extra sensors and monitoring helped protect the truck in this test. I was a bit surprised it got so hot that quickly though.

Tim, if you could land an interview with a Toyota engineer to discuss this recall, that would be amazing. Better start building your list of questions. I doubt that will happen anytime soon, but you never know.

I actually think it’s a solution to avoid a class action suit plus save their reputation. If you look at the cash on hand from Toyota’s financials, a couple billion isn’t much. Also, this sets Toyota apart from other automakers who would not do the same thing when they had similar problems. I...

It did seem a bit drawn out. The biggest takeaway I got from it was payload calculations in relation to tires and the pressure you run. I know a lot of people obsess about being over payload with the passengers, tongue weight, etc. But unless it’s a really significant overload, it’s not nearly...

After I had a bunch of fraudulent charges to my bank account, I made some changes. I stopped using debit cards entirely and got a credit card with a low credit limit. I also opened a few other accounts to put money in with different banks and investment companies. If I have to pay with check...

Tim, in my youtube feed a video was suggested for a Cat 2025 pickup truck. I did a little research and I can't find any info about it except for a bunch of youtube videos. If you do a good search for "cat pickup truck" and click videos, the top 28 results are youtube videos. They all look like...
