Radiator fan stays on (factory circuit coming from drivers side harness). Tach stopped working possibly at the same time. A/C compressor stopped engaging. Not sure if all are related but they seemed to be at the same time.

Looks like someone is standing on the big wing in the first picture. Not that anyone would put all of their weight there or anything...

Pffft, I'm sure that wing could easily withstand someone's body weight.

I mean, its done it a hundred times already...


Dam Wendy's fries, miniaturized neutron stars I tell you!

Man I still feel bad about that, I'll never be able to get that *CRUNCH* sound out of my head!

Nice to meet (some of) you guys that I didn't already know. I'm terrible at the forum screen names to real people/cars translation thing so I probably talked to people there not even realizing that you're here lol. Hopefully we can do another MT meet thing there next year.

Yes, it's a Tundra I use to pull the Miata and trailer. Original engine. It was an 18 hour round trip to the gap.
