definitely not boring! would look right at home somewhere of this sort and kind:

I would put this in the column titled "supports my point" :)

For the last one, I meant how much oil does the engine use up between oil swaps, based on what the dipstick reads when he comes over?

I understand car’s bottom, including suspension won’t look weathered, but it can still look “worn”. So you just, say every 50k or so, tighten bearings on your clients’ cars? Do you use dial to set specked play in the bearing on your friend’s Merc? As to “he’s on a borrowed time” — anything...

You mean to tell he hasn’t reverse-mortgaged his house driving a 8 year old, 200k mileage, $60k+ Mercedes? 😁 Thanks for the update! Wish you’d taken pictures of the bottom of the car P.S. how did you know you needed to adjust bearings, play on push-pull? I recall you’ve adjusted his bearing...

An upper trim of economy cars? 😁 Accord Touring, Camry XSE, Hyundai Palisade Platinum, and so on

This is an automotive equivalent of Motel 6, so, yeah, not terribly exiting, but it is stepping on the heels of the Hilton of the baby boomer’s youth. Progress, that’s what is exciting!

Looks very attractive for a budget transportation and, apparently, now drives like a premium economy offering. Modern cars are just competent now, even down at the bottom:

I notice several people mention TFL… I understand their content is not totally devoid of informational value, but the presentation and characters are just too low proof to stomach for me. If “village idiots” capable of productive work created an automotive review channel using 1980s B-comedy...

⬇️⬇️⬇️ It’s possible to have a cake and eat it too, just at a higher cost?

Nothing per se, but multi link is better, no? Toyota say it improves ride and handling on this very same truck:

Do you mostly use your Tacoma’s for work or as a personal driver?

Could you please expand on this or, maybe, give a link? Thanks

Looks like the same thing, just evolved to not look out of place in the 3rd decade of XXI century.

That’s only for the top tier model, first 3 trims get — haha — leaf springs 🤦‍♂️

I suspect most of the Tacoma lovers who SWORE to never sell theirs, will do so in the next few years to move into 21st century from the 90s. Waywards! 😁

When you say “Toyota” I hear a mix of Nissan and Daihatsu, sprinkled with a tad of Mitsubishi

I understand you meant to address someone else 🙂. I too find it peculiar and amusing when people find similarities in appearance between, be it sedans or eggs or balls, or that all TVs are rectangular in shape 😁. Talk about “finding a mouse in the mountain” or “creating a storm in a teacup”, lol

Accord is great! Its biggest, terminal, Achilles hill is that it’s a front wheel drive platform. Nigh impossible to go back to a front wheel drive from a rear wheel drive platform. But otherwise it’s a supreme choice for $30k something spacious sedan

Honestly, both look like 1970s American coupes, with one being next gen of the other. The same guy drew them few years apart. I don’t think it’s a fail by any means. 1970s is 1970s, and a car coupe is a car coupe In any event, if these two cars look interchangeably to you, and you’ll have...
