The "good" half ton pickup is an 07 Tundra I ordered new when the big body style came out. I have learned that I probably should have waited until all of the kinks were out, but Toyota has been great about covering everything and it rides like a dream. It doesn't get abused and is really only hooked to the small stock trailer or car trailer if anything at all. It is the "tight shoe night" pickup.
Back in the fall, one day I went to town for parts. I got home and realized I needed something else. It wouldn't start. It acted like the fuel pump - it would start and then shut down right away and each time ran a shorter period until it wouldn't start at all. On a whim I unhooked the battery for an hour. It ran just fine after that. I still took it to the mechanic but he said there were no codes - call if it does it again.
Well, it did it today with the stock trailer. I called him and he ran out to the farm. Of course he never even pops the hood on the thing. He hooks up his reader and punches in the VIN to see what's going on. The pickup thinks I am trying to steal it! He was going to go back and post it on his forum (I'm guessing the car guy's YT) and see what guys said, but he was puzzled. I have always used the same key and only remove it if I go to town. It hadn't been removed either time, so I don't think it is the chip in the key. I switched to the brand new second key just in case.
I never would have made all of those payments if I would have known I was going to steal it anyway. Thugs and thieves - you can't even trust yourself anymore!

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
