thanks for the northern Illinois, southern Wisconsin edumacation!  Yeah, my wife and son went to that vacation house in late June-early July '08 to recreate. I guess you can go to this sandspit in the center of the lake to go to the bar and to listen to rock bands, etc. Bro-in-law has a volleyball net set up and a boat docked there on their property to play in. Yeah, isn't work fun when somebody decides they want to be obstinate about something or other? Workplaces can be such a pain in the butt anyway, but when you get somebody that decides to ravelrouse with you it really can be a pain. Part of the problem is that those types start to feel like they "own" the place after they achieve some sort of milestone or they have successfully "brown-nosed" their way to a certain position. Power can be such a energy-sapping phenomenon to other worker-bees at a workplace!  I liked this little town called Geneva west of Chicago that we rode bikes at. Always a fair-type atmosphere going on, even if one of their many "celebrations" isn't going on. Nice place to walk around on the streets and hob-knob. |

It's just a pain. I enjoyed operating equipment. Now I can't... Anyway, I may get new friend down the road.    '05 RS 1.0, 5-Speed, 38k, interior in good shape, no major or minor scratches, wheels haven't been scratched, underbody looks quite well, and brand new Toyo tires. "Sexy Red" or "S.R. (For short)" is the name I thought of when "I love at first sight." She could be Bullitt's older girlfriend LOL Bullitt and I can easily have her for $14,9xx. Which is the highest price tag on a 2nd car loan I can go. So......I decided if Sexy Red is still at Kenosha Carmax around Christmas. I'll use my big fancy bonus' for a down payment. I can afford both tCs including insurance. I just can't go anywhere except for work until March. Which I feel would be a good way to stop my driving habits. If I have "IT MOVES (MVS) ME" on my current tC's plate. What will I get? How about this?  (What Moves You?) LOL |

I sure like the Scion tC. I test drove a 2005 Scion tC RS 1.0 in Absolutely Red in Idaho Falls, ID, in late 2006. I was there to test drive a 2006 Scion xA in Polar White and iPod connectivity, foglights and 5-speed manual. Ended up not getting either car but I liked how both drove, actually. Just wasn't the right time to buy. Glad I waited for my '08 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS. You're really gonna spring for another Scion tC? Wow!

Replying to: iluvmysephia1 (Nov 04, 2008 8:44 am) Good news...I'm back to operating equipment but I'm still wanted to work as warehouse clerk. So there's 80% chance I'm getting raise since there's more important duties. Should raise me to $19.00s. Bad news...Carmax sold the RS tC within the first week. Sooo, I'm going to save the extra green and see if I can buy something base, if denied I'm using the $10k to payoff some other debts like student loans! In 2010, I could easily only have my car payment and insurance. That's if I play my cards correctly. All depends on how soon will I grow up? lol |

to only have those two payments. Knowing Murphy's Law or just life in general who knows if such a thing is really possible. One can hope, though. Movin' on up at your job is cool, though, at any rate!

| Hi I am new to this forum...I have a 06 Scion Tc.....for the past few months I have been hearing a droning noise(shh shh shhh kinda noise) coming from the drivers side front wheel....i can hear it at low speed(at about 5 mph)....but for the past few weeks I have been hearing the noise consistently at low speeds and the worst part is now i feel tht the car pulls on the left side....went to firestone and got it checked....they said tht it mite b the wheel bearing gone bad but since the sound is lite we cannt say for sure.....also got my car alligned....but the pulling thing is still there and so is the sound....so my question is is the sound really a wheel bearing issue( i have just got 24k on my car) and if it is so should I goto the dealer to get the wheel bearing replaced and can anyone tell me how much will it b to replace the wheel bearing....i m really worried becoz somewhere on the internet i read tht if the wheel bearing is bad even the wheels can come off....so i would really appreciate if someone can tell me wat mite b the issue | |

Hmm....I don't know what to tell you? I would take it to Toyota dealer and see what they say. You can get a estimate and could take it to another shop. Get the work done there for cheaper. I have least five different rattles with mine. One,squeaks everytime I go over small bump at very slow speeds. I thought it was the struts but I switch them out with aftermarket; its still there. --------------- Well, I maybe saving money and move to Aurora, IL. Depending how the economy is in couple of years. Offer to take a position at the Midwest Toyota Parts warehouse. They must pay well since they require minimal 2 years of experience. They ask you to handle a $500.00 starter...you think they will only pay $8.00s or $25.00+? Benefits are GREAT! I love my family and job....but; I'm turning 25 next week. And the family still treats me like I am 6 still. I know they care but I'm going to be 25! I think moving to Aurora and work for Toyota could give them convince in me and I could live my own life. Doesn't help my brother, sister and uncle work at my current company. |

I am all for you moving to Aurora and taking that job. What do you mean "they ask you to handle a $500 starter?" You will probably be happier in that Aurora job. You will probably mature more or just be free from family "ties" as it were and progress as a person much better if you move and take this Aurora Toyota job. And Toyota is enormously successful, you will have nice job security as well. Go for it!
