    Wife sales job driving our 4runnr into the ground

    I wasn't totally clear in what I said (that's what I get for being online at work)...he's usually got a few jobs a day and each of those can be that far a drive. It's not as though he chooses to live 50+ miles from the office (his office is a town over) - it's that he's sent all over the place...

    Wife sales job driving our 4runnr into the ground

    My boyfriend goes through the same thing with his job. Some days he has to drive 50+ miles one way. He got a rather new Subaru about a month or 2 after starting this job and 3 years later, it's falling apart inside and out. He didn't realize he would drive so much for work and didn't plan to...

I would have put it off forever, except that it was having problems starting up and they said they would pay. Here's the story: My...

    December 21, 2012?

    If you're going by the Mayan predictions (and not all the others that fall into this same period in time), it's seen as a new cycle. People are interpreting it as the end of the world because it completes their largest cycle. However, it could just as well be the start of some huge change/new...

    Shifting Problems

    Recently I've had some problems with my '97 5-speed 4R where I couldn't shift it into most gears (or any gear sometimes). Earlier this week I got stuck mid-K-turn on a narrow street and spend 10 minutes trying to get the car into reverse. I called up Toyota and they confirmed that they had...

    No more parking spots? No problem!

    These are great! I'm always tempted to do some creative parking here, but public safety frowns on that at my school...sometimes I have to convince myself that the big orange $50 ticket isn't worth it
