Positive vendor feedback warning to avert heart attacks of those thinking I only complain:

























My radio bezel was warped, Crutchfield replaced it no muss no fuss.

Huge shout out to Crutchfield!

Yes, AutoNation sent these, they still suck.


This is the old one.

on the new one the top left edge seems to bend in or does it follow the curvature of the dash?
funny, I DEFINITELY noticed the old one in your pics...I was like, man that shit looks terrible but
my Mom taught me not to say anything if it isn't nice.

Both are curving in too far on the left side, if it bugs me enough I'll spend the money and get another. (this was 35 bucks, the better one is 55)

It's not loose, just curves wrong. It doesn't bother me enough to want to R&R the radio again.

I'm not vengeful and you should not suffer. How 'bout this. I replaced it but can't take a picture.

Zillion dollar & three week wait dog door flaps came. Well packed & shockingly clean.

Guess they needed to be replaced for some time.

Hell freezes over in about another 8-9 months.

This was taken in a neighborhood my parents are looking to move to, it's all old people.

Went to Tucson & picked up this TRD PRO skidplate.

First roadtrip went great. Averaged 75mph & 18mpg. OEM intake & K&N element running 1 degree over ambient indicates there is no need for a cai. (Ambient in upper left corner)

I'm impressed by the highway mileage. I expected closer to 14mpg.

I was afraid it would be 16, Was very happy with the 18. I helped not going 90 at any point, only a few bursts to 80.

It's a frustrating trip. 90% is 2 lanes with 75mph limit but semis & idiots block the passing lane.

Most I've seen here in Houston so far is 96*
But it's been pretty humid with all the rain we've gotten the last couple weeks.

Excessive heat warning today. Humidity is still low thankfully but it's like opening an oven door to go outside.

Bear in mind these numbers are always 3-5 degrees lower than actual.

This line will come back to bite you in a few months.

This is normal for you. Normal here is ~75-80F, not 102.

It will be 120+ and not under 90 soon enough, hell, it should already be that way so winning!
