    Do you need to know, or care?
    We can still get them here. Only in the Downtown Eastside, 5 for 20 bucks. Not a box I'd care to open.

    I rolled away in a Camry. A '17 though so I'm not mad it was pretty nice haha. It was only for a day though because they completed the recall that day along with my 5k service. All they did was check the torque on the bolts because of no leaks. My service manager told me they are only finding like 1% that need a new gasket. I also don't know why everyone is getting so butt hurt over having a rental for a few days lol like all these people ABSOLUTELY NEED A TRUCK BED 24/7. GTFO

    Thank you for the reminder. I just remembered I needed to get a bunch of manure for my high rise condo balcony.

    No, I'm upset for a couple reasons:

    1) The dealership telling you they are going to keep your property, and making it out like you don't have a choice in the matter. If this doesn't bother you, then you should give me all your shit, and I'll determine the proper time you will get it back.... Why? No other reason, than because I said so.

    2) No defenitive time table for when you will get your property back. That's great you got yours back in a day, however most of the trucks that have been "taken" will remain on the lot until the official Toyota recall fix, which is when??? Do you know??? Because Toyota doesn't even seem to know.

    3) The pure stupid, inconsistent logical reasoning behind keeping the vechile. Why are they keeping them? Saftey reasons? Really, if it's that unsafe that they don't want you to drive it, but the other few hundred thousand people... Well, their good until sometime in June. WTF sense or logic does that make?!?! Also, a TRD off-road that is not on the recall list can come in and get a "fix" and be on their way the same day... Same issue, same problem, but no impound.

    4) Just the general lack of balls people are putting up with this shit... I mean really? Some service rep is telling you, you cant have YOUR vehicle back untill whenever the fuck, and apparently everyone is just like... Ok, hoo humm... I take a minivan, and check my balls at the door on my way out. But don't worry I'll go home and post on TacomaWorld and let everyone know how upset I am about it.

    Not true at all. They refuse to admit mine is leaking or even howling anymore.

    -i is the common latin pluralization of -us words, and it would be pronounced "yar-ee" rather than "yar-ay". Since Yaris is -is, correct pluralization would actually be "yares".
