    Okay, due to the fact we have members with apparently reported injuries in regards to hurt shins and dry-eyes, the 3rd gen must be recalled.

    We as buyers of these expensive fine tuned machines can no longer accept these obvious design flaws from Toyota. How do we go about either forcing Toyota to do a buy-back or a massive recall?

    Happy "Friday" before ThanksGiving TW!!

    They should recall the owner and use the butt of a gun to bash in his nose to save knocking the front sight off during a pistol wiping

    Please add my complaint:

    The windshield wipers don't cover as much as they should.

    Thanks,
