Default a few questions..

Hey whats up everyone!

1-Has anyone else noticed that if you fill up your tank and drive somewhat normal, when you get to 1/4 tank you have gone 100 miles, when you are at half a tank you have gone 200 miles and so on??

DO you think they meant it that way?

2- Also, my seatbelt doesnt get sucked up into the B pillar very strongly anymore, is that warrentt covererd?

3- EDIT - See post below.

4- Do you put radio on "passion mode" when you have a girl in your arms like i do?

5- how do you get hardened gum out of the carpet?

6- i love tC!

1: It will not always be like that. It depends on your driving an what kind of mileage you're getting. But yes, it's usually pretty close.

2: Not really sure what you mean, but if it doesn't seem normal and your warranty hasn't expired, why not have it checked out?

3: Any "WTB" or "FS" type threads need to be posted in the classifieds section, but you need 50 posts in order to post there (so I've edited your part out, sorry ).

4: I have no idea what that is, but I have an 05, so maybe it's something new.

5: Google is your friend.

6: Yes, and I also love lamp.

Ya, I'm not sure what's up with those settings... I don't use tC either - but I forget if I'm using xB or xA.

my car has TRD springs but stock struts/shocks whatever they are...

you think it would be a big improvement to get TRD shocks/sturts?

You'd see more improvement with a rear sway bar. The shocks and struts might improve your ride a little bit, but aren't absolutely necessary unless you need them. Your money would be better spent on the sway bar.

Doesn’t have anything to do with your topic(s), but why does it say that you are 105?? I’ve seen one other person on here with that age (ScionofPCL, or something like that) but just thought whatever. So why not 104 or 106? Just curious.

As for removing hardened gum from carpet?? Goo-Gone?? I don’t know. But next time you see a friend spit their gum out on the ground, slap them across the back of the head. When they give you that “WFT look” (hopefully before pummeling you), tell them that it’s from the person that stepped on it and tracked it onto their carpet.
