Yup, this happened to me. Don't know how they get the IP address or e-mail address to block you but they do.

No, you were right to assume it is aluminum. Even though the 1UR-FE has the elemental sign for Iron in its name it is a die-cast aluminum block. Toyota UR engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 2010 1UR-FE 4.6-liter, 32-valve DOHC V8 Info -

I live in Michigan where we get plenty of snow and TONS of salt and I swear by this stuff: POR15, Inc. - Stop Rust Permanently - Repair Gas & Fuel Tanks They sell chassis specific stuff as well.

I mentioned the Limited mostly because that and the GX are the only two 120 platforms that I have driven for any significant amount of time. In my opinion the added features of the GX were not worth the extra money. In fact even if their prices were equal I might still choose the T4R simply...

'03 Civic Si - Which I still drive. It is garbage.

Absolutely. I won't even look at a car with collisions unless I am looking for something well under $10,000.

It was developed to sell and frankly a lot of the features that enthusiasts like you and I might like (the V8, center torsen diff, and rear air) aren't going to make a big impression on the every day shopper. They like that pretty EPA number on the window sticker and want to own the newest...

Now you are resorting to ad hominem attacks to try to make your point? I have a Bachelors in Accounting as well as my BSN so why don't you try to enlighten me with your facts. You act as if the changes between generations occurred in a vacuum. The economy has gotten significantly weaker in...

Your entire argument this time is another logical fallacy called the Appeal to Wealth. You should do some reading here before you craft your next response: Logical Fallacies

Just because you say it is the truth doesn't make it so, that is the logical fallacy of arguing from ignorance. I am waiting for some evidence.
