Fascinating. Thanks for the update

Imagine the size of the hog on that statue omg

Leave it and turn it into a soup kitchen.

Man, people can suck sometimes.

Unrelated to vehicles, - my grandfather sold all of my grandmother’s land when they got married to spite her family. So, yeah. People can suck.

Hell yeah. Extra points for Toyota; they’re the shit. I drive Fords because they’re available to me, but if I had my druthers, I’d rather drive a Toyota. Best vehicle I’ve ever owned was an 05 4Runner. Miss that thing. It would go everywhere.

Oh, that’s interesting. I didn’t realize it was still coming on during the initial startup. Definitely do those tests and let me know what happens.

Out of curiosity, what make and model is your truck? I haven’t dabbled much with any vehicles newer than, like, 2017, so I suppose it’s possible that they’ve changed the way the TPMS works.

My last vehicle was a 2010 Ford- TPMS worked fine; took the wheels off while the car was on jack stands in my driveway, and took them to my neighbor’s shop (~1/4 mile away) to mount and balance new tires. My son started the car to mess with the stereo while I was gone, and the TPMS light came on. Even after I replaced the wheels, with the same transmitters, it refused to acknowledge them. The light stayed on until I junked the vehicle last year.

As far as I know, that doesn’t happen. You typically have to program the TPMS monitoring system to search for certain transmitters.

Now, I’m just a somewhat skilled shadetree mechanic; I’m not claiming to be the source of all knowledge or anything, so I could be wrong.

If there aren’t any other vehicles around and you haven’t programmed the sensor, I’m gonna guess the light just stopped working.

Yeah but when the battery dies, the light on the dash stays on. It only turns off if it has a signal from the sensors that it’s programmed to look for and they all read proper pressure.

That does sound rather worrying. The good news is that those sensors only have a range of about 35ft tops, so it’s more likely that one of your neighbors stole your wheel, put a new tire on it, and are now using it on their car.

Any similarly-wheeled vehicles nearby?

I’ve gotten 2 votes for no and one for yes. That’s good enough for me to give it a shot.

I do enjoy a bit of nin. That’s sad to hear, though. I love Tron. I even liked the shitty second one.

:-(

I’ll have to tell my Japanese and German friends. They’re really into that sort of thing.

1 paragraph horror stories

(Implying that whoever stole your tire is now stalking you)

I don’t fucking know.

There was a new Tron movie? Shit. Is it any good?

All of the bodies arrived at the facility with their hands and legs cuffed, the hospital said

In response, Israel issued a statement saying: “Fuck! We missed one.”

Trust me, been there and it wasn’t for me.

I posted the full story in another comment, but that is the jist of it
