Also why did you go to the Stealer to buy the Revo's? couldnt you save a few hundered bucks at a regular tire shop?

Haha, thanks yeah I live in a pretty upscale neighborhood, and even outside of Washington DC houses go for millions around here. (wow that sounds so pompous, I apologize).
And good question about the Revos. Funny story actually, I went to the dealer at around 2pm today to FINALLY get them installed. I was so so happy. The process took a while longer than my friend George at the service counter anticipated, so he let me have a look around the service bay, around and under my car and all that cool stuff- I felt so privileged to be able to walk past that "employees only"sign. By now its about 3pm, and I am tired of sitting in every new car in the showroom twice, so I check on how my car is doing. Still not done. So I take the new Land Cruiser for a test drive and man...does that thing kick some major tail. I even got to take it on a solo 10 minute test drive because of how long I had waited for my car. I bring the LC up around front-I was contemplating jsut leaving with it but my common sense told me otherwise- and go in to hear that my car is about to get aligned and I will be out the door. 5 minutes later, I see the garage door open and my 4Runner being pulled onto the alignment machine. I walk up to it...and my heart sinks. I got new Bridgestones yes, but what type did I get? Regular old Deulers. OEM replacements. Damn I was pissed. Apparently you cannot order Revos through Toyota, since they are not factory equipment on any Toyotas. So the OEM replacements were ordered and put on instead. After an hour search for the tires at a NTB or Firestone store, I found 4, which are going to be shipped to teh dealer tomorrow morning and then installed free of charge. I have been playing tag with these tires for almost a week now, and I thought today was my day, but I was wrong. I did get a nice Avalon rental though. The service manager was hesitant on giving a 19 year old a rental, but apparently I'm mature enough to know how much crap I'd get into if I did anything wrong to it.
