Replying to: xrunner2 (May 08, 2008 5:52 am) It might not be so much about the mop and glo. I think from what Joel said it was more about service contracts. "I wouldn't have this huge repair bill if I had a service contract. I want the dealership to pay this bill because I wasn't offered this contract." I don't understand the people who are so worked up about this. Clearly they have either never rented a car or they have always bought ALL the insurance offered to them. You can't rent a car without a) buying the extra insurance or b) indicating that you decline it. |

Replying to: richard64 (May 08, 2008 7:24 am) He did balk and to hear him tell it, quite a bit but to no avail. He didn’t like it one bit when they gave him the excuse about it being missed but he’d have to pay for tires anyway.  That’s why, as I said in my post, he went so far as to have the GM at the Toyota store sign the turn in report stating that only tires where needed when he was turning it in at the end of the lease when he was given this news about needing tires. Ask your brother if he is having any problems getting the automatic top up and down. Coincidentally, I spoke with him last night and since I mentioned yesterday that he was happy with the car, I asked him how the car was doing for them and he said “great”. I have to assume that if the top was giving him a problem he would have said so. And yes I am a “technical wizard”, I’m also practical. That’s where the towels came in. I hate it when people over engineer something for no explainable reason. Remember, “Form follows function”.  jmonroe |

Replying to: mackabee (May 07, 2008 5:32 pm) even better, post some pictures!" Mack--don't you remember, I sent you some jpegs about a month or two ago, but am happy to send some again. It's black, has 60K on the odometer and runs like a top. You're almost as bad as my wife!  Fezo--the 91-95 MR2s have a decent size trunk behind the engine. You can easily get a couple of reasonable size suitcases--I've even gotten my 90mm refractor with equatorial mount, tripod and accessories suitcase in as well as a soft bag or two. There's also a small space in front of the spare tire and a small lock box behind the seats. The mark II generation also came with bags to hold the t-tops either behind the seat or in the trunk. I've never been a fan of the last generation because it has no trunk (because of the convertible top). I looked at an 05 on the lot of our local Toyota dealership a month or so ago, but it just didn't do it for me. Gogiboy |

Replying to: richard64 (May 08, 2008 7:55 am) When we bought our house a couple of years ago my wife insisted on the quartz counter tops in the Kitchen. I was stunned by the cost, but, you know--and I whisper this lest my wife hear--they really are nice--and easy to maintain. From everything I've read, the manufactured quartz is a bit more resilient than natural granite--even though quartz is a significant part of granite. Gogiboy
