    They are too focused on the Chi-town expansion... And Tres Hombres wasn't popular, everyone said it sucked. Maybe they just got a good deal. I will still try to get more beer intel. For now, I kill a growler of Lagunitas out of a Moylan's glass. Moylans and Marin BrewCo are my customers also :) Along with basically every winery in Sonoma and Marin. A bar owner in SF gave me doughnuts and Milagro Limited Edition Tequila today too :p

    News reports of a white Tacoma or Tundra Access Cab tossing water bottles out the window have hit 6 different vehicles in the Sonoma County area. There are photos of the truck at the Santa Rosa Transit Mall on the KTVU site. Since a woman was injured in one incident, there'll be at least one felony charge (throwing stuff out the window is a misdemeanor).

    KTVU

    This really sucks. I've been hit by stuff on my motorcycle and I can tell you, I hope this person does not target a motorcyclist.

    Gosh Toyota rapes you on their parts pricing. Three parts on most sites are $27 and $47 at my local dealership. Oh well, rather have them now than wait a week.

    There so inconsistent on their information. I'm on a texting list for local alerts, I received 3 today that all mentioned different features on a tundra. Off road package, black hood, racing striped, lifted, lowered etc...

    Sometime if you call the dealer and tell them that you can get them at a better price and have proof of that price they might match it to gain your business.just be friendly with the parts guy!They don't make commission on what they sell.

    I've tried that before and they said they don't price match online dealers. It's only $20 this time but I can't imagine the difference in prices for larger items.

    tell them dealer near by has it for cheaper, or that you are picking up for a shop, used it many times, the shop line works better.

    Good call but the closest Toyota dealer is 40 miles away so it might not work. The shop line may work. I never buy parts from them (3rd time in 3 years) so I'll take this loss, just sucks paying almost 2x as much for each part.

    Land Rover/Jaguar/Aston in Marin. Every CEO, Winery Owner, Pro Sports players all have Range Rovers. I get mad love at wineries and breweries :)

    I just did my Signature Glossy Black wheel treatment to a couple rangies today

    I get to add mods to sweet cars and SUVs, mod them for handling, or off road, just depends on the customer. I have one dude whose LR4 could take a hit from a mine, and keep going, and you can lift the truck 6+ inches remotely with an iPhone app... led fogs on remote, hidden winch, full safari setup.
