WOw 100 already? Niiice! Congrats

I don't have a gold medal for you but how's a gold star heheh

 

aww man i want a gold star!

 

i got my car in late july and just passed the 11,000 mile mark.

 

I thought Mercedes gave it's owners who hit millage marks little badges to put on their car's. Toyota should do that :]

 

Damn! 100k miles is alot. Very nice. I got my tC in Dec. 04 and I have 40,000 on it. not too bad

 

living on campus gives me like 1k a month i used to do like 5k

 

never experienced a check engine light, no repairs at all, maintanence free. to let you know how reliable my car has been, i haven't changed the spark plugs, battery, or serpentine belts ever since i got the car, and it still feels new (although those are the things i plan on replacing real soon [like next week]) i have to say though that without replacing those things the car feels a little bit sluggish (expected) and that the only major things that have fallen apart and need to be replaced are:

1. my visor broke (i heard there was a tsb on it but i'm pretty sure i was over warranty when it happened)
2. rear lift cylinders blew out (because i transported a couch over the freeway. YES A COUCH. an IKEA Klippan couch to be exact. it will barely fit with the hatch open) these retail for around $140 each. (unless you work for a dealership that should be like $99)
3. carpet clips that hold the floormats in place broke (not a big deal, they're like a dollar to replace)

haha. that's it for the interior pretty much. i pretty much abused my car and it hasn't had any major problems.

 

u took a picture while going 57ish mph? that's safe

 

haha i knew someone was going to comment about that.. haha i got excited and let off the accelerator to take a picture

 

oh so u were going faster? well at least u were slowing down

 

lol.. speed limit sir (65mph).. i swear.

 

so hows the paint on ur car??

it must have more chips then a bag of doritos!!

 

Niiice!

how is the paint?? pic

 

^ yes yes pic please

 

my paint has a lot of chips mostly on the hood but no rust yet. I like the chips and dings they make my car a sleeper right??

 

Holy crap u drive alot, lol. Well, at least its still running great rite? I dunt know if i'll ever hit that much before I let go of the car, but who knows.

 

i had mine since april '06 brand new got 74,000 miles on it .
major parts ? clutch this past weekend, and brakes (2x) and two sets of tires. not bad im very happy with the car
now its just a minor issue i hope with the steering when the car is cold i hear a weird sound whenever i steer

 

100K that's it?? haha just messing with you

this guy still have you beat, 131K miles and that was many months ago. im curious what he is up to now.

holy crap!

 

Real drivers take their cars in for oil changes every month J/K
only check engine light came on once (due to improper CAI installation), set of front brakes. 7 oil changes, new set of tires, 2 maintainance dealer checks ups. That's it.


I'm just testing out the true Toyota quality and going for the 400,000 mark! Then waiting for Toyota to offer to buy back my car.

I am planning on saving up for huge down payment and buy something economical for everyday while keeping the tC for summer & weekend fun.


Least I didn't buy a GM or Ford LOL
