    I'm going to go with there are a lot of newer members that haven't really got a feel for TW or its atmosphere, let alone the shenanigans that take place from time to time. Some of them are probably on other forums that are ran differently and they have an expectation of the way TW should be run instead of how TW is actually run. If they stick around they'll see what the TW community is about.

    Just curious, those of you who have "contacted corporate" after getting blown off by the dealer etc....who exactly are you contacting? I dont see any guidance on the Toyota website for "opening cases" with Toyota.

    I feel like I would have better luck contacting coca-cola with a question about the aluminum they use in their cans.

    I'm not a transmission guru........but I believe if Toyota can put a ECT button on my dash that changes the characteristics of the transmission by simply pushing it as much as it does, then a well thought out ECU update should make worlds of difference in the daily driving.

    No, I prefer you remove references to someone saying someone's mom gave 600 blow jobs first. No need to justify your moderation skillz. It's all too obvious.

    Each issue is a judgement call on how it's delt with, and we value member input. None of us are professional forum moderators, and we do what we feel is best for the site.

    Far from. Statement makes sense. Trust me there are some mods I agree with and some I don't that have no issue banning me for a week (been there).

    Are you referring to me? Because the mod had a beef with another member, not me, I didn't drop any "sh*t bombs" as you infer here and find it a bit offensive and presumptionus as you are assuming and you mention olive branch and then infer I am starting stuff which is far from the case, did you even read the prior comments in this thread, what did I say to drop a bomb as you imply? Dude, come on. The conversation stems from another thread not this one in which another member and mod, see here: Should I trade my second Generation Taco
