On the dropping off issue. I use the Toyota dealer here in Tucson, AZ and also have a 2012 FJ Cruiser. I took it in some time back for an oil change as I don't enjoy doing on the FJ. I waited, and then waited. I asked a few times, when are they going to be done? Oh, they are checking the car...
I put one spare mask under the visor and a few in the slot behind the passenger seat. As an ICU nurse and have worked through 2 past pandemics, masks work!
Thanks for the comparison, great write up!
On turbo lag, I have the 2020 and have none. I know the 21 doesn't have the same kick as the 20 in the lower end so that may be the difference. I expected a bit of lag, but when I first drove the 2020, I was extremely surprised. I have had turbos...
Yes, you are right. A little twitchy. It has to do with the way the tires track under acceleration and something they knew about but rushed to get these out. I have gotten used to it but would be nice if it tracked cleaner. Other than that, a great car and great fun. I had a 1990 Mitsubishi AWD...

Yes, now the FJ feels very sluggish when I drive it. lol I have a 2012 in Blue. The Supra is one fun car to drive. I wouldn't mind 50 to 100 more HP but won't go for the 21, spent enough already. :^)
On burn in, all electronics need this. The capacitors need to form and other electronics, op amps etc, need to settle and this requires current going through them. It takes around 100 hours of on time. Even chip caps have to form but more so, electrolytic caps.
I have them off now. Used Bimmercode. With how much I drive it and the expensive replacement and knowing how my FJ Cruiser that did have the constant on went through lights, I can't see it. Also, the safety it provides is a low %.
I go slowly over them, no issues. My driveway isn't steep at all but if I go straight on, I scrape the front to I go in at about 30 degrees and then straighten out and no issue. Backing out the same thing of course, as I get to the street, I angle to one side or the other and avoid scraping the...
