Panhandle here, PCB to be precise. I never get out to play though, work is a pain. Sam

finally finally got a back it looks brand new. Now I got another issue, somehow they managed to unravel or cut the threads on my driver-side back seat. It is the leather look vinyl (leatherette or sport fabric). Anyone know how to fix that? I will upload pics a bit later. Sam

UPDATE 23 OCT: Woohoo They were saying Tuesday (3wk) but I hounded them for info and reasoning. They say that they had to wait for approval for another repair on my truck. Further now they have told me exactly where it is in the process. "Hello Sam, the truck is in the paint process, there...

New door, new rocker, new running boards, and dent removal from back passenger door. It was supposed to be done Monday, but they changed it to Wednesday. I rented a 2019 Tacoma SR5, nice truck, but only though Monday. Cost me $460 (5 day rental=$310, sec dep=$150), and now I gotta hope they...

Now the price went up and they will have it for another week. Apparently there was damage to the rocker panel caused by the asshole that hit me. It is like $2,050 total now. Sam

There was no damage to the fender, just the front passenger door and a super small dent on the rear passenger door where it meshes with the front passenger door from opening it up. They also updated my repair estimate, instead of $1998, it is now $1960. The part cost is $947, that includes the...

Well I got my estimate. https://www.carwise.com/e/3FDg38 They had to find replacements for my running board cause they are discontinued. I sent them a site and than they sent the estimate a day later. Sam

I will have to look into that, I received no such letter, but I also bought it at a FORD dealer lol. Thanks Sam

So i got my hands on a OBDII reader and checked, apparently AN Ford cleared the MIL cause i get 3 issues, all relating to my secondary air pump. P2441- Secondary Air Injection System Switching Valve Stuck Closed Bank 1 P2443- Secondary Air Injection System Switching Valve Stuck Closed Bank 2...

Yeah, it is so deep that my window will only roll down like 1/8 of the way. Another thing i noticed is my running board on that side is now at an angle. Is there a way to level ot out? I am thinking the struts got bent. Sam

So, I was on my way to work today and a whole line of traffic stopped dead in their tracks leaving me stranded in the intersection (illegal). I moved into an apparently clear lane but some asshat came speeding up and hit my passenger front door denting it quite horribly. My question, is there a...

When it sits 6hr or so in 90f weather. Could it be like the air filter or something needs replaced? Sam

Oddest thing about it is the malfunction indicator light is not on. After 10 seconds or so of having the key in the ignition it works fine and i do not have the issue for about 6 days and only if it is hot (90+). I am wondering if it might be the battery. Since my truck has tow package with...

4L 1GR-FE V6. I mean it cranks and cranks for about 5-10 seconds than starts up. I do notice I have not had that problem much anymore, but still wanna be careful. I took it in for a recall last week and they also did a free inspection and it mentioned I am due for an engine tune up. No clue why...

I got mine off, plan to take it to an offroad shop or EV outfitter to have them mount it properly. I highly doubt it was mounted properly cause it was springy.
