    I would agree with you on that except 1 thing that would not make any sense in a payoff, every other Toyota and Lexus Model finished better than average. I have a feeling the low rating has alot more to do with whatever kind of crazy scoring system they used

    Fox reproduction quality has declined. Just like the Tacomas on the side of the road.

    I think this is a good example of human nature. What our attention is focused on we naturally believe to be more important or more serious than it really is. The good and the bad of having a product specific forum is that it is great to learn and enjoy it more, but on the other hand any sort of issues or problems can be amplified. It's the plague of social media in general, and it's also how nefarious people and organizations are starting to sway public opinion. I preferentially noticed Tacomas everywhere once I bought one. If we want to enjoy our trucks more, maybe we should just join the Ford and Chevy forums and hang out there.

    Say the word probability as much as you want but it changes nothing. There are not enough facts to support your argument nor the math to support your incessant claims of probability. Using that word means certain things and you can’t just change words to mean what you want them to. Blue is blue and I can’t describe green by using the word blue and expect the rest of the world to go along with it.

    I am sorry you are taking this so personally and feel you have to resort to name calling. Now if you have an issue with my CAPS to highlight certain words I can go back and bold or underline if that makes you feel better.

    Apparently you can’t go anywhere without getting dildos thrown at you. That’s the worst.

    I think the caps are for emphasis. I mean, shit, 7 pages into this and you are still stubbornly clinging to your initial observations despite literally being ridiculed by everyone....it was about time someone stated using fonts , italics, emoticons, underscoring or (God forbid) CAPS to emphasize a point.

    If you ask him nicely, maybe he can edit his post and substitute the caps for italics. Would that make him less of an asshole?

    BTW: 400K bad differentials were not recalled.... the recall was for leaky differentials. Maybe a handful of cars actually had the rear end lock up on them....which prompted the recall to check the bolts, fluid levels, etc.

    Bolding is deemed fairly aggressive. Underlining is a bit too cheeky.

    Again, I say go with the italics. Very classy, non-confrontational, yet makes a subtle point., :thumbsup:

    Starting to really expect that tonight when I'm driving to go pick up my metamucil from Walgreens I'm going to get hit in the back of the head with a dildo. As I fade out of consciousness, my last act will be to turn on my hazards and pull off on the side of the road... only to awake moments later to find myself getting a random BJ. Honestly, though, that would be a pretty good night.
