    I dont hit my shins on the Taco but when my MIL had a 2000 CRV, i would hit my shin on the lower dash at least once out of every 5 times i drove it. I hated that car!

    Okay the only reason that I know what a "Taco Shin" is, is because I stuff all 6'3 of myself in a tiny toyota 80's cab made for a small asian on the daily. I have driven a third gen many times, and I believe that anyone who gets it that bad is uncoordinated.

    I can see hitting the same place on your shin, over and over but how do you hit it in all those different spots?

    I'm pretty sure that those are burn marks from exposing that pasty white leg to sunlight.

    I recommend taking those knee pads you use at work and sliding them down a bit.
