Yes the second one is the Insulated Stretch Voyager for that series. They fit the same weather its the rain jacket or the insulated version. I have the rain jacket as well in Pirate Blue that i picked up in store at REI on discount last November during a trip.

Thanks for the question. I just got back from our property upstate in Chateaugay, NY by the Canadian border. We had temps in the teens and no higher than 24 all week and lots of snow and wind. I got to take my Wyldfire, Arktik and Ukon all for a spin. The Ukon and Arktik use the same dense Berber fleece lining and were plenty warm. One is synthetic and the other is Italian. The Ukon is a heavier weight version of the Arktik so if you want a heavier jacket I would go that way if you like the Arktik. The UKON also is slightly less restrictive. All I had one was a simple base long sleeve tee and was plenty warm for my needs out walking the property and the dogs with the low temps. Arktik and Ukon also come with a Parka option if you want an event colder weather version with insulation and not just the fleece. I dont have a need for that. Since I grabbed the Wyldfire for the 850 RDS Down already. I will say which ever you decide on be patient and bargain hunt. I was able to get the Arktik from Scheels for $174 last year 50% off its MSRP of $349 and the Ukon from Lennys Shoe for $344 compared to its near $500 MSRP. So Only thing cold was my head when the hood was down and I didnt have my beanie on. The Wyldfire was super warm which was very nice to see as my first puffy but I didnt worry about my dogs tearing it with the waxed cotton exterior protecting the insulation. Now I will say my use case wasn't for long periods out in adventure mode this time. This was my daily use out in the snow walking my dogs around the property at our bar in the snow and around the cabin. Running errands etc. If you are planning to take it on adventures out in the woods etc I would check out Engearment as they do more mountaineering reviews. My use cases are based around my use at our property upstate and in my travels for work to places all over with varying weather conditions. @engearment is there handle. Shawn is awesome and does some good reviews on a number of products. Quick to respond to your questions if you have any on a particular review.

@@abharkl thank you for the detailed response. I think the Arktik is the way for me it seems to be a little more tailored than the Ukon. I guess I will have to look into Sheels and Lenny’s. Thank you again !

@@craigparise8619 Glad to help. Hope you enjoy it and happy bargain hunting. Very nice choice. Hope you can find one for an affordable price point like I was able to.

I just got the arktik, the fleece lined hoodie the law is warmer than the arktik, despite the price difference, the law keeps me warmer and has cuff like fabric around the arms so wind does not get in. The law is also more sturdier and the arctik for daily use and work.

@@emotomp thanks for the info. It seems a little more comparable to the Kollusion… could you tell me where it is made??? Thanks

Thanks for listening. Appreciate the comments.

Every 100k miles all hoses, belts, spark plugs etc, full system tuneup. Every 200k full suspension unless something happened sooner plus the 100k miles treatment. Transmission has been flushed once, its a sealed transmission, you shouldnt need to do it according to Toyota but still a good idea. Our other family car by Chevy is the same way with a sealed transmission and just went over 220k. Same regiment and no issues. South Carolina roads are trash so the suspension had to be replaced much sooner around 160k i think we did that one.

I believe they are all since they are same generation. Only difference would be number of electrical housing inputs underneath if you didnt have full power seats or heated/cooled seats.

Yes original both. Very regimented maintenance. Mobil 1 15k mile oil (Gold Bottle), Belts every 100k, suspension every 200k, all fluids and plugs every 100k. Any any normal wear and tear.

Awesome video! Thanks for making it. And you’ve given me hope about my 08 with 194k. I’m taking out the seats to redo a sagging head liner.

You are welcome.

As far as I know it shouldnt, would just have some more cabling since there are more wires going to it. And likely some air conduit you would line up to. Seat would be heavier since they have additional components in them for heating/cooling. My GMC Sierra Denali had the vented and cooled seats and they came off in a similar manner to work on the floor amp for the sound system.

@@abharkl I'm trying to replace my 2009 Avalon Limited's heated and cooled seats (which are wildly uncomfortable) with cloth ones without all the electronics, do you know if they'll work and just bolt right in? and will the airbags in the seats still hook up with the same connectors? obviously there will be some loose ends somewhere I just dont want to end up with a bunch of warning lights

I have a 2011 Limited when I bought it it had small rips and tears in the front and passenger seats. Now they become bigger. It would be cheaper for me to get the material to replace them rather than buy two whole car seats, but I can’t find a video of anybody reupholstering perforated seats because I have to have my cool and heated seats for my medically/surgically repaired back
