    They are Toyota engineers looking at the parts in a Toyota Technical center. Could be a lot of bias then. They won't say "Oh this part is crap", etc.

    Agreed. They aren't going to shoot their own product down...:rolleyes:

    These vids are a dime a dozen for any manufacturer.

    really, no new brake pads at 100k miles??

    ok, why doesn't mine last that long.

    I hate BS.

    Also, why does my taco have a laundry list of problems at 20k miles.
