  1. Just checked, not sure if it has a brake controller. Need to re-check.
  2. Oh, missed that one. It came with the factory hitch package, €345 total.
  3. No, it's the late Toyota Pickup in the US. Ranger sized.
  4. No, my cousin's Frontier. Now replaced by the new Hilux.
  5. Yes, it has the 13-pin connector with brake and vehicle stability control.
  6. Is the lawn mower yours? Looks professional. Moar towing ability:
  7. I think you need to use .m3u format playlist.
  8. Just found the heaviest single trailer I successfully towed with my Mk1, this particular scissor lift from Ramirent, 3000 lbs: Really unstable. Much worse than my light trailer at 4000 lbs due to the high center of gravity. Yet to overload my new Connect.
  9. Here my plastic one, collapses vertically:
  10. Cargo net is good for anything anyway but for fixing small objects: collapsible storage boxes, put male Velcro in the bottom and it would not move anywhere. These are available in different forms, collapsing sideways or from top down. You can also cover them with a cargo net for freeway. Random sample: http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/lifetech/item/15061337/
  11. What do you want to tow with it? I tow light loads all the time, no problems. 10'x5' light trailer.
  12. I always crimp + solder everything. Professional cretinism, I guess.
  13. I asked the dealership to disable the door ajar/lights on. They refused as it's supposed to be a safety feature.
  14. Tervehdys, jrm223! We have a very simlar climate to Finland (being just 50 miles South. Nokians are very popular over here. I was just at my regular tire shop today for an oil change and asked for the latest suggessions for my needs - long lasting, good grip on ice and relatively hard compound (I drive south frequently). They recommended Michelin Alpin A5, so I'm gonna try them out. Around $/€100 a piece, not bad for a quality product. They also showed me Michelin's new All-Season tire CrossClimate. Supposedly the first all-season tire they would ever recommend. 50K mile lifetime and a severe snow service symbol which means good grip in actual snow. Not good for use on plain ice.
  15. Over here, all databases are linked, so a cop drives around and their dash cam automatically picks up vehicles with missing insurance or of some of the registered users of the vehicles is somehow interesting for the cops or anything really. Plates are mandatory, front and back, so you can't drive even a mile without.
  16. T0astervan, you don't need to pick a fight in every thread.
  17. yw, I have a generic wireless charger (high quality nevertheless) with adjustable clamps so you can use any phone in it. It's a bit different with a plug in charging port, needs to align perfectly.
  18. How long does the warranty process take?
  19. Are you sure there's no yellow panic release in the inside?
