Default The radio antenna is telescoping!
We've had our TM over 6 years now, and I learned something new about it the other day -- the FM radio antenna is telescoping. All these years I thought it was some coiled antenna inside a plastic housing, but while putting it up the other day I caught the end of it and guess what -- it came out! I'm assuming I'm the only one that didn't know about this, as I don't recall it being discussed here......

Interesting. My 07 has what I call the batwing antenna. If I yank on it I will have a repair job...
