On-topic, off-topic, who cares!

All good, I'm curious to see how the dealership reacts to the open issues. I'll report back for science. I'll throw some paint pics when I'm at the car next.
Yep, good fix. This is where VW outshines Toyota, the assembly quality of the Cammie is disappointing coming from my R.
Not surprising that it’s sitting … how long has it been ?Tar wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 11:46 amYep, good fix. This is where VW outshines Toyota, the assembly quality of the Cammie is disappointing coming from my R.
No regrets , i spoke to a guy that works for the company that bought it, still sitting on the lot and the head unit died and wouldn't turn back on so they replaced it with a new one. He thought that the car looks fantastic and in really great shape for mileage.
I think I sold it in December, 5 months? R.I.P Carvana wannabe.max225 wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 12:55 pmNot surprising that it’s sitting … how long has it been ?Tar wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 11:46 am

Insanity
This is something I'd expect more from a Ford. My family owned roughly 4 Fords, last 2 has paint bubble issues, the Windstar that we had when I was in 6th grade, the door was struggling to close etc. Ford is always known to have a subpar build quality. Except for my 10 year Fiesta is almost flawless other than the shitty automatic transmission which Ford has lost in lawsuit for it (dat DCT) and the exterior cosmetic scratches bc parking in the nations capital. Also doors closes with a decent thunk as well.

That's about all the drama to be found on the Toyota forum.
We should, let me know if you come across some good content to spring board off of.Detroit wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 5:15 pmTar wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 5:12 pm Back story, a Cammie owner had his car in the shop or something and was driving a Sentra.

I've only perused a few 4R forums, and they're not the most engaging. We should general Toyota forums together
Yeah man, but in all fairness I picked up another client and have been driving to Oshawa to assist with the launch of their new p/up truck lines. Paid for the mileage... And still juggling the usual tech support stint for a Japanese robot brand that's used to build Toyotas, so it's extra. The GM thing is wrapping up this year and I'll be back at it once the Ingersoll Terrain plant gets an overhaul. I'll have time to breath again shortly. This is why FE matters in my world.
Honestly if I drove your miles for work I would have ditched the R or made it a second car way long ago.Tar wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 8:30 pmYeah man, but in all fairness I picked up another client and have been driving to Oshawa to assist with the launch of their new p/up truck lines.

It was a nice car, but the to for the job. This is way better, and i can argue that it's the ideal car choice for the mileage in doing. B2B may be gone in a year so used would have been even smarter if the markets weren't upside down.razr390 wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 8:53 pmHonestly if I drove your miles for work I would have ditched the R or made it a second car way long ago.Tar wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 8:30 pm

That is quite dark! 20% is legal in Ontario?!Tar wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 12:52 am Night shots of the beast, it got some seriously dark tints this week that I regretted approving five minutes after saying yes. 20% front and back is a new low for me in more than one way. I'm going to wager that nobody even GAF and I'll have these on as long as the car is mine.
And now for your viewing pleasure, I present photos of the most fuel miserly car I've ever owned.
The back can be anything I want, 20%, 5%... driver and passenger window also has 20% RN, but NO TINT AT ALL is legal on those windows as of recent legislation. Anything I put on the glass is breaking the rules, but we don't have inspections here anymore, so it's on the police officers to enforce it if they deem it necessary which rarely happens ever.D Griff wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 8:18 amThat is quite dark! 20% is legal in Ontario?!Tar wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 12:52 am Night shots of the beast, it got some seriously dark tints this week that I regretted approving five minutes after saying yes. 20% front and back is a new low for me in more than one way.

I failed inspection this year due to tint and then at the second place they said it's too dark but they passed me 'just the once'. Mine were installed at 35% but tested at 29%. According to the inspection bro, they actually get darker over time
All you need now is a Cammie dent and you'll be full drug dealer spec.Tar wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 8:46 amThe back can be anything I want, 20%, 5%... driver and passenger window also has 20% RN, but NO TINT AT ALL is legal on those windows as of recent legislation.

I should have gone lighter all around because I don't like it when the front windows are lighter then the back windows, and 20% is gangster dark. The kids wanted it dark in the back and always fight over which side will have less sun when we're heading to places that we frequent often, like the sports park where they have soccer practice/etc.... Somehow between their squabbling, and the tint guy chirping into my ear about going 20% because it's the best, I said fk it and agreed that 20% would be . As soon as I said 'sure' to get the job started I slightly regretted my decision, but a part of me wanted to see this stupid idea through
It is kind of nice having that level of privacy, and with the sunroof shade open it looks a bit lighter in the front and can probably pass for a lighter shade. Either way, if I did get a fix-it ticket, I can pull the front two films off and submit a pic to have the fine dropped.
