    At least we can assume it's a Tacoma, lol. They had Manual Tundra's for awhile back then too.

    My one Aspie friend is incredibly clueless about cars...

    His dad had a 1996 Nissan Pathfinder for many years, but he traded it for a new Toyota Highlander in 2003. My friend thought that the Highlander was a Pathfinder!

    His parents gave him the Highlander sometime in 2012, and he totaled it within a year of getting it! :(

    2006 was the last year you could get a stick shift Tundy; 2nd Gen onward is automatic only...

    When the Tundra first came out in late 1999 as a 2000 model, I was only 10 but remember being pissed that the V8 was not available with a manual transmission!

    On top of that, stick shift Tundras that aren’t base models are extremely hard to come by!

    I felt the same way that you were stuck with the 3.4 to get the MT, definitely rare.

    The same friend who totaled his 2003 Highlander got a 2011 Altima afterwards and one time called me in an absolute panic because what he thought was the CEL had suddenly come on and he was convinced his engine was about to blow up; Turns out it was the maintenance light and his car just needed an oil change!

    :facepalm:

    I think I have pretty reasonable requirements for a woman; She must have at least two of the following three things:

    • Driver’s license
    • Steady job
    • Have a college degree or be in school
    On top of that, I don’t want a woman who is a convicted felon; Even if they’re not a felon, I would not want a woman who’s been arrested multiple times!

    I would prefer my woman to be smart, ethical, well-read, well-informed, naughty, kinky, able to care for herself, etc...

    He didn’t even know how to pump his own gas until after he got his driver’s license, and that’s only because I forced him to learn due to be sick of driving all over creation looking for a “full service” gas station when we hung out!

    I was helping my parents pump the gas when I was like nine (licensed drivers only my ass)!

    And the last two girls I dated were on the autism spectrum like me; I would have serious reservations about dating an Aspie/autistic girl again!

    In my opinion, any able-bodied person who can’t get out of their vehicle and pump their own fuel is a pansy!

    Same friend, the one who totaled his Highlander and who I had to teach to pump gas, had another obnoxious habit...

    His parents obviously told him to use his high-beams when he was learning how to drive; They told him to use them whenever it was dark and there was nobody coming from the opposite direction. However, my friend just assumed that it was okay to keep the brights on even if there was a car in front of him.

    This happened on at least two occasions when he was following me somewhere; One time in 2012 or so, probably the second or third time he did this, I pulled to the side of the road knowing he would follow...

    I told him that he couldn’t have his brights on when there was somebody in front of him, and he seemed absolutely shocked; He gave me the “But my parents told me...” speech, and I was forced to tell him for the umpteenth time that he’d probably misunderstood his
    parents’ instructions...

    Thankfully, he learned from being chewed out by me and only uses his brights when there are no other cars on the road!

    I like girls who are crazy in the bedroom and a bit kinky as well :D; I think we are all “crazy” in our day-to-day lives...

    However, three of the girls who have shown interest in me have issues that go far beyond hormones and typical girl problems; Two of them are downright nuts!

    None of the “unsafe conditions for sensitive groups” shit, at least not at the moment...

    You know the Weather Channel started naming storms a few years back and it caused a bit of an uproar? Do you think it’s stupid to name winter storms? I do for some reason...

    Nice! This day and age I think all vehicles should have them standard! Are you going to put it in the 4Runner or the Frontier?
