    TP Bypass Filter Users.......

    After weeks of research to make an educated decision to install a Bypass filter, most info I found pointed to Ralph Wood. I installed a Motor Guard on my 2003 Toyota Tundra last July 2004. I had 9635 miles at the time and had used Mobil 1 5W/30 from the first oil change at 1000 miles. I have...

    3rd Grandchild

    Thanks Vetteman, you are so right. It is a feeling that one cannot describe. Can't wait to teach the young ones how to ride a bike, too swim, and whatever else they want me to do. My time is now spent with what they want to do.

    Some more info on the MASSIVE TOYOTA RECALL...

    Just called Carmax where I purchased my 2003 Tunda and the person who answered the phone said they did not have any info and I was to wait until I received a letter from Toyota. I asked if I could get a loaner car, she said no. Hopefully I will get a letter in July and get it done right away.

    Going back to work

    Thanks, I did not think there was much age discrimination until I started looking for another career. I talked to the FBI and had the qualifications but the told me I was too old. Many places on Monster asked me how long I was going to work before I wanted to retire again. I told them what did...

    Ways of getting a job in your field?

    The only real way to get a good job that you will like is to know someone on the inside. Agree with Pablo. I went to many interviews when I was leaving the military and the only real success I had was with people I worked with before. I was offered jobs but they were not what I wanted. My wife...

    Too much concern??

    Agree also Boxcar. I have owned many cars as well. I'm almost 52 and have owned 30+ cars. I had three Volkswagens before I had my license. I guess it is just a hobby. I joined the forum because of info from Ralph Wood and his bypass filter. I purchased a 2003 Tundra and want to give it to my...
