I love mine too. I didn’t want one of the cylindrical ones since they are so limited.  Mine is the oven type that has toast and bake functions so it replaced my toaster oven.  I preheat my small cast iron skillet in it and it bakes beautiful cornbread!

I’ve always been techie and have been a professional IT tech for over a decade. All my previous phones have been entry-mid range Android phones since I got a smartphone in 2011. Almost of those phones (LG, HTC, ZTE) had issues and didn’t make it 2 years. The best Android phone I had was my last one, my Nokia 7.1, but…

Damn, and I thought WV had some crazy infrastructure choices. 

So there was only one lane for both cars AND trains?  Major code brown is an understatement if so!

Yes it did.  Which is probably one of the reasons that contributed to the decline of that platform. 

This happened in my area. I don’t know the guy but know who he is. Of course he’s also anti-vax. The officer finally gets tired of his shit and tazes his ass while his brother is filming, which is the best part of the whole altercation.

As to the issue of valve adjustments, the R-series engines were in production for a very long time in various displacements and configurations.  The original R was a 1.5l OHV design introduced to the market in the 1955 Crown.  And the 22R changed very little during its run in the Toyota trucks from 1981-1997, with the…

I have two 2nd gen Camrys and there are a couple surprisingly large international groups on Facebook devoted to them.  

I’m middle aged and have worked in IT support for many years.

Also no Whole Foods within hundreds of miles of me. 

And that’s why I don’t and won’t have an Alexa. I’ve also cut back on my Amazon purchasing and cancelled my Prime membership. Gave up Android last year too. Not that I trust Apple 100%, but their track record is still better. And the computers I use the most do not have internal webcams.  

That’s true.  What finally did my 95 F150 in wasn’t a mechanical failure but body rust.  Mechanically it had little issues I was often taking care of like radiators, alternators, brake lines, but the engine kept going.  But the radiator support and the front cab mount panels were so rotted the cab was barely attached…

A lot of that depended on the car. GM, Ford, Chrysler absolutely. There’s a reason the Japanese saw exponential growth in the 80's and 90's. Other than the 7M’s head gasket issues, most 80's Toyotas, Hondas, And Nissans can easily go several hundred thousand miles and still be reliable even today. But an 80's American…

I’m from Manchin’s hometown and I wouldn’t piss on the bastard if he were on fire!

I’m in a college town in WV and you would be surprised how many Hawaii plates you see here.

The Tacoma wasn’t quite the same structurally as the Hilux.  I believe they used a different frame.  I know the Tacomas were all made in the US and they didn’t rustproof the frames correctly for the 1st gens since most of those in the rust belt are long gone, but I still see some Pickups in my area. 

I could have sworn we got the Hilux in the US until it was replaced by the Tacoma in 95.5.  The first pickup they sold in the states was the Stout, which was replaced by the Hilux in the 70's and I believe they wore the badge until the late 70's when they just started calling it the Toyota Pickup.  I learned to drive…

Thanks!

Also, why can I never get a photo to upload when I try to attach one?

My first car is a 90 Camry with the standard 4 cylinder.  It was a great first car and has been a great car all around.  Almost 27 years and 280,000 miles and it has only broken down once at around 250k when the ignition coil failed in 2009.
