Here's a great tire pressure gauge to keep in your toolbox or in your vehicle: amzn.to/3KCANIP
Or if you want a air chuck with an accurate gauge to use with your air compressor I love this one and I use it myself: amzn.to/3Xj4rtW

Thanx again for your always informative and clear as day explanations. Always enjoy watching your video's. Very greatfull to learn something new after every video🙏
So nice of you to say that. Love hearing that type of feedback. God bless!
Sport S+ is the only mode that makes the shocks stiffer. Sport S leaves the shocks the same as Normal mode.
That makes sense. I can tell the difference between S+ and normal. But I can also tell the difference between comfort and normal. Comfort is far more “squishy” than normal or S. That’s helpful to know. Learn something new everyday 😀
Great video thanks, these 570 are becoming hard to snag.
They are definitely holding their value. Specially since the new v6 turbo motors are having problems.
Cobalt builds such a great boat. I sold my 246 last year that I pulled behind a 2008 and 2016 LC. It was optioned with the Volvo 496 and scaled around 5500-6000 lbs depending on fuel/gear. The 200s did admirably, but towing was always stressful if interstates or mountain passes were involved. With that said, the maneuverability of the 200 couldn't be beat at launches with tight trailer parking. Nice video, and kudos for towing that big beast around!
Love the 246, it's a fantastic boat. We had a 232 previous to our current 292. Were your 2008 and 2016 both LCs? Or was either one an LX? I have noticed that for towing stability and confidence the LX tows significantly better than the LC, specially with anything over about 4000 lbs. The AHC suspension makes a world of difference keeping the suspension aligned where it is designed to work best.
@@NKPGarage Correct, both cruisers. I may have to try towing with an LX to see what I'm missing out on. 😀 I really wish Toyota would have offered AHC as an option like they did with the late model 100s, but I digress!
@@NW_Shenanigans I think they do overseas. I have heard of some folks in the middle east with AHC on their 200 series LCs. But in the USA it only came on the LX570 for the 200 series.
What mileage do you get towing?
Towing this big giant thing I get about 8mpg
Awesome video. More boat videos please
Thanks buddy! Hope you’re doing great!!
Great video, thanks a lot
