    He was from Ohio. Worked as a GM tech. Not a genuine "Aussie". He said it somewhere before.

    @EatSleepTacos your 2nd sig cartoon is gold...:D

    Though for the 3rd gen section it should be saying more stuff, gems like:
    • my alternator light is on when the engine isn't running, do I have a lemon?
    • my oil pressure light is on when the engine isn't running, do I have a lemon?
    • there are drum brakes on the rear axle, do I have a lemon?
    :rofl:

    I don't understand why the seals on these trucks seem to suck dick. Me with my fishtank plate light (oh yeah it's still happening), sand getting into tail lights, moisture in the headlights, leaks on DC 3rd brake lights...

    It's not just Tacomas though, I've noticed some really suspect looking stains that look like water damage in new (2015+) cars of a lot of manufactures...

    Probably because they all had to do something incredibly retarded like switch to dolphin-safe adhesives.:bananadead:

    It's a reference to the guy who got sand in his tank. His dealer blamed it on his HID's "shorting out" the car the second time around.

    I will pay you 500 crisp, brand new SAND FREE $1 bills for your truck. Might be the best offer you'll ever get seeing as your truck is ruined to the point of no return.
