Before I spent that money, I would jump on youtube and watch Project farm's test of the dyi spray on ceramic's. Granted they are not as good, but still way better than wax, and you can literally do a truck in 15 minutes.

I got my first microfiber towel a week or so ago. I cannot believe how well it works. I wash my truck, with the thing still soaking wet, just lightly drag the towel over the entire truck. NO streaks, scratches, and can use on the entire truck without wringing out.

As a Tacoma owner with the frame rust issue living in WI, I can tell you Fluid Film is a waste of time, in fact I tested it on bare metal in my yard it is was worse than just WD-40. It washes off in short order. I also tried Wool Wax, which works well but it's a huge mess. On my new Tacoma it...

My work car is a 2007 Mazda 3, 215k miles and going strong. It replaced a Toyota Corolla which was way less nice to drive. Only work on the Mazda is the normal wear items, wheel bearing, ball joint, steering items. With that many miles that seems normal to me.

I had a hand me down Corolla from my daughter, was an oil burner. I replaced it with a Mazda 3, I currently have 215k on the clock and still strong. I would take that Mazda over the Toyota any day. Much nicer and fun to drive too. I'm even a hardcore Toyota guy.

2007 Mazda 3, 215k miles and still strong. Amsoil at 7k oil change intervals.

OK, so the days are coming to an end for my work transportation. My Mazda 3 has 215k on the clock and it's rusting faster than I can control. Here is a list of my wants and needs, MUST be AWD, even the cheezy brake activated will suffice, preferably not a CVT tranny, and not nickel and dime me...

This is an older thread bull I will chime in. On my Tacoma I went from Duratrac to the Rugged Trek, I now have about 25k miles on them, gravel, rain, snow, mud, and everything in between. About 10k miles are on Colorado's mountain passes, Engineer, Corkscrew, Imogine, Owl creek, California, and...

This must vary from state to state. Here in WI a few years ago a purchased a Toyota Tacoma with a salvage title. I got it from a legit dealer who buys accident vehicles and fixes them. I got a great truck for a few thousand less then I would have been able to otherwise. I saw all the parts fixed...

I'm hoping some guru will chime in here since the service dealers are useless. I have a Toyota Tacoma with the off road package, including the rear end E-locker. Now for reasons I won't argue about here, I want to remove the electronic locker and put in a limited slip rear end, not the phony one...

The tank is probably about 15 gallons, I used about 3/4 of the Seafoam,, the container says mix one bottle to 8-24 gallons of fuel,,I would guess I was somewhere in the middle. I called the dealer and he said they knew the engine light came on when they got the car in and they replaced the 02...

I did not think of checking for codes before purchasing, the light was off at the time so if it was giving them grief they cleared them all beforehand. The code number was po420 catlyst system fault (bank 1)

The vehicle has about 90K miles,its an '02 model.. I was told by a very reputable guy at Napa that Seafoam is one of the best fuel stabilizers out there, and works great in gasoline.

Hi guys, I just purchaced a used toyota corrola for my daughter, when I got it home I wanted to run some fuel injector cleaner thru the system so I poured a can of seafoam in the gas, its a smallish tank and I used about 3/4 of the bottle.. After about 10 minutes of highway driving the engine...
