    Yep. I’ve never done it in any vehicle.

    Toyota says do it at 100k but apparently that’s already too late. I’m only at 75k on mine.

    people are saying 2 years / 50k to be safe.

    I ordered some coolant and a tester thing so I’ll hopefully know in another week or so if I’m f’d

    Lot of talk about snow, shovels and blowers in WI. Was a nice crisp high of 77 degrees here today. I'm good in AZ my friend.

    My brother tried for years to get me to move down there "so he would have someone to hang out with" & couldn't believe that I kept telling him no cause I like the change of seasons & I really like winters.

    Yeah, I was at around 72k when I changed mine recently. Seeing the visuals in the video helped me finally understand why to change it.

    I’d hope it’s not the head gasket in your situation at such low mileage. How old is the vehicle?

    IIRC in Glendale the street lites are an amber color (looks weird) so as not to attract scorpians.

    Did see a tarantula on the trail during a night run once but other then that haven't seen any other nasty critters. There were some Donkeys that hung around camp one night. They made all sorts of noise. Bunch of jack asses really.
