    Another run away Toyota (Prius)

    Or maybe they should charge him with fraud and filing a false police report and put his stupid, greedy ass in jail. Then Toyota should sue the crap out of him, not that they'll ever get any money, but just to make his life miserable and make an example of him.

    once in a lifetime pic :)

    Since it's a 4Runner, 444,444 is the number to aim for. I only have about 240K to go. I snapped a pic of my MR2 odometer at 222,222 and trip at 222.2.

    Seafoaming Process???

    If the honeycomb matrix inside the cat breaks down it can restrict the exhaust causing power loss.

    no 5th gen day

    Shit, I love my 2nd gen. She's be paid for for 19 years, has had few problems other than the usual alternator, water pump, etc, hauls me and mine wherever we want to go, and still looks damn good, I think. Toyota made a good truck that keeps going. I could trade her in for a new one if I...

    2010 4Runner is here. Which generation's body style do you like?

    Toyota, along with most (all?) other manufacturers, follow the same pattern. They introduce a new vehicle, improve it's looks for a generation or two, then start making it uglier and looking more like the competition. Why is that? 4Runer peaked at 3rd gen then started downhill with the 4th...

    Exhaust Sensors ....

    I actually have a 2nd gen (1990, one O2 sensor) so I'm not even listed in URD. The NGK is $35 less than Denso. Would I be taking a chance with the NGK not working correctly?

    Exhaust Sensors ....

    The NGK O2 sensors are considerably cheaper. Anyone have any experience with these?

    Seafoaming Process???

    The instructions say one pint treats 8 to 25 gallons of fuel. When I use it I add a pint to 1/4 tank then take a short drive to the gas station and fill up. Don't add any more gas again until you're down pretty low. Yes, I was being a little sarcastic when I said 'a bit of smoke.' When I...

    93 Front Shocks

    I have Bilstein HDs on my 90. Very pleased with them. Nice firm ride but not harsh. I would suggest you replace the rears too.

    hi..

    Welcome aboard. I'm sure you'll learn a thing or two here. What kind of 4Runner you driving?

    Seafoaming Process???

    On yotatech.com you'll find more posts on seafoam than you'll care to read. Basically you feed about 6 oz into a vacuum line, turn 'er off, wait a while, then restart. Expect a bit of smoke.

    Double Din HU

    Friend of mine has the Pioneer 3100 above, very nice unit. I'm thinking of getting one or the 4100. Have had a couple of Pioneer HU's before and always worked well. Don't buy anything from Bestbuy, they are the worse. Crutchfield has great support but usually more expensive, but sometimes...

    New Sirius radio

    I installed the antenna in my gen2 the same way Chris did, only I continued under the top molding and down the A-pillar to the receiver in the dash. The antenna wire was just barely long enough with only about 2 or 3 inches to spare. With that mounting you don't have to worry about the vehicle...

    Rant: Some people are way too naive!

    Some people think that this country is superior to all others in all aspects because they were born in it.

    Touch up paint

    Duplicolor paint is crap, especially the clear. Use that on a surface that gets a lot of sun and within a year you'll wish you had paid extra for quality.
