    we arent saying they should pay for our mistakes...have you not read a single thing that people have been writing on here?

    we are simply saying that toyota tries to deny warranty coverage for any small debris that may get into a part..hence my blower motor story...did you read that or just jump to your conclusion?

    we are simply saying that if toyota is going to advertise something, they should back it, if not then only put pictures of their vehicles on pavement, and not to advertise it being an "off-road" vehicle but then bash you when you take it off road..

    we are by no means saying that toyota should pay for our stupid mistakes...just back what they advertise..

    You don't want to know...
    Is it not almost 2011? How come sealed bearings and accessories have not become standard on "off road" vehicles? or all vehicles for that matter?

    Wheel bearings don't fail due to being submerged in muddy water for a short time do they? Why couldn't this 100 year old technology be applied to power steering pumps, ac compressors, alternators, tensioner pulleys...?

    Just saying.
