It wouldn't help since people would still just make new threads anyway. Besides it is not just all the threads but all the people asking the same questions in existing threads where the answers already are laid out in detail. You would think that nobody has ever heard of a recall before when it actually happens all the time. The pure stupidity of some of it was why I had to stay away from here for a few weeks. I just couldn't take it anymore!


Just wanted to grab some of them and ask...

Well in fairness some have not received that yet. The big one that bugs me is "will they do extra work while in there?". DON'T ASK ON A FORUM CALL YOUR BLOODY DEALER. There is zero way that anybody here can answer that with anything other than "well my dealer..." which means nothing unless the person can also go to (or avoid) that dealer. I think I have now linked that Toyota FAQ doc that explains things beyond the recall notice to most of the threads but since few seem to read beyond the first post I don't think it helped much.

True! More threads would still get started.


I feel you! I have had to take a break from time to time.






Additionally, I don't know what this "brain" you speak of is... But after a quick google search; It looks to be a mouse that desires world domination.

So, to answer your question. "What would I do with a brain?' I don't know, I have never had one.

Not the breakdown part since it is a car and shit happens but the winching it up onto a flatbed. Pretty sure I would have a few parts left behind during the operation.

I was so scared that the tow truck driver would damage my car cause of how low it is but he took his time (almost 15 minutes) to get it on and off. Luckily I just popped a few clips off of my rear bumper

Brain: "Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"


Pinky: " I think so Brain, but if they called them sad meals no one would buy them."






Brain is insane to think Pinky could possibly be pondering what he is pondering.

What about a thread discussing the new Supra valve springs? At least that would throw in some variety.
