    Mismatched wheels, a rusty hitch, and wiring held together with nothing more than crusty electrical tape.

    Neither of my Yotas get over 20mpg. I really should grab a 2WD manual car but insurance is too expensive at my age. When I had the Tundra on my plan I was hurting.

    I can honestly see that being a thing once they grow up and have minivans. Everyone pulles their rice trailer to the local parking lot and sniffs each others butts while playing mario kart.

    Just saw a set on an 80 series in the scrap yard yesterday. At least one was damaged from the rollover. I left the wheels but did get the three remaining center caps--too bad they don't fit on my 4runner rims.

    Did Toyota ever make a 16" version of those wheels?

    I’m 23. It’s crazy how younger females with multiple accidents will still pay less.

    There's an 80 in your junkyard? Did it have a bumper still in the front, been trying to find some vent thingies for a while.

    Missing both bumper vents now somehow

    Can't imagine these are too much to insure at any age.

    Its not the worst idea, assuming you've already accepted that you're going to ground through the frame, which I hate.


    The taillights on mine are grounded through the frame - through the door hinges, which are rusty. Its perfect. :laughing:

    Yeah my other problem is finding the right shitbox. Manual trans cars are carrying a premium these days.

    for the most part mine have continued to go up :(

    when I asked about age the broker said "traditionally, it should go down.. but so many people are moving to CO that everyone's rates are going up"

    Only thing with that is oil is in the name. I know for a fact brake fluid will chew through it faster than you can get a towel

    I think my Colorado rates are higher than my Chicago rates were. Lots of uninsured drivers around here.
