  1. IT FINALLY HAPPENED! (It actually happened at night late last week, and I pulled off to drive around in circles in an empty parking lot) Before: After:

  2. Wailing, siren-esque, brain-piercing noise. Even at a crawl the whine is horrible, and it sounds injured/broken.

  3. Glad i watched some of that. I realize its a race car, but the sounds it makes are absolutely unbearable.

  5. Rusty framed Tacomas from 15-20 years ago have no relevance to what they are building now. Just like the ignition recall on old vehicles has no relevance to what GM is building now.

  6. Honestly... Big PHOQUING deal that its built in the US... It REALLY means nothing... Sure! Americans...Canadians...are FREE to buy what they want. So are German and Japanese folk. These people are FREE to buy whatever they want too. Oh...please stop with this bullshyte argument insinuating that ONLY Americans have fought for their freedoms for their people to be free. France, Britain, Greece and many many many....many many many....many many other nations and tribes and clans over the hundreds of thousands of years humans have been roaming the phoquing planet have fought oppressions of all kinds JUST to be free... Yeah but....really though. Where is the REAL American pride? Germans and Japanese in Germany and Japan ALL buy cars that are OWNED by German and Japanese firms... These people are TRULY proud to be... They believe in their engineering. I guess anything engineered in America is crap? THAT is what you believe? Look at the last 150 years, including 2020, and YOU tell ME with a straight face that America sucks in engineering stuff. Made in America by a foreign company means absolutely NOTHING... Toyoter (and evidently that dumb rag of a mag consumer report) has BRAINWASHED you into thinking all kinds of stupid things....) Case in point... All those frame rusts, all those engine slugs, all those runaway cars...and Consumer Reports, nor yourself...have ANY hatred towards Toyoter, but you loathe GM? You ARE free to think what you wanna think and buy what you wanna buy... I aint here to change your mind about NOTHING. I dont care! But...Im letting YOU know...I aint falling for YOUR bullshyte argument... And Im calling you out on it...

  7. You should find even older pictures to prove your point. My co-worker Silverado rusted so bad he could not pass inspection. I am in 40s and my colleagues are in early 50s. Few after having Silverado or F-150 with numerous electrical or reliability issues swore next one will be Tundra. As a matter of fact I have two co-workers, one with 2014 F-150 and another with 2014 Tundra. F-150 had and still has a lot of electrical issues, stereo doesn't work right, backup camera stops working, windows refuse to go up etc, etc. Tundra had absolutely no issues at all.

  11. Same company also does all the other auto companies and here is how Ford F-150 fairs. Over the last 37 years, 136 Recalls, 70 investigations, 1,504 TSBs. This equals to 3.67 recalls, 1.89 investigations and 40.65 TSBs per year. http://www.fordproblems.com/models/f-150/recalls/ Chevrolet Silverado from 1999 to current or last 21 years. 12 recalls, 3 investigations, 2,635 TSBs. Equals to .57 Recalls, 0.14 investigations, 125.47 TSBs per year. http://www.chevroletproblems.com/models/silverado-1500/ GMC Sierra 1500 from 1999 to current or last 21 years. 24 recalls, 5 investigations and 2,539 TSBs. Equals to 1.14 recalls, 0.24 investigations and 120.90 TSBs per year. http://www.gmcproblems.com/models/sierra-1500/ I am sure if we add together the recalls, investigations and TSBs for the 150, 250 and 350, same with 1500, 2500 and 3500 the numbers would go up. Toyota does beat them in much less TSBs per year with only an average of 39.4 TSBs.

  12. Those SLUTS! Hey Statue, are you going to be devastated when you realize you cannot fit in a Rivian, because it sounds like it's not very big.

  13. Yeah- look into the frame rot lawsuit; it covered tacomas, tundras and sequoias. 4-runners and T100s also had severe rot issues. Or... keep your head in the sand.

  14. They probably have to. Ideally the school year will be cancelled and everyone can return in the fall of 2021. (schools, not the new Genesis products).

  17. Also because of the pandemic, I saw Jeep is delaying the next gen GC and the new Wagoneer to MY 2022 also, and that the 2021 GC will be carried over from 2020, but w/ the addition of an 80th anniversary edition.

  19. Because race cars usually don't have mufflers, resonators, sound deadening....race cars tend to be very loud and raw sounding, whether EVs or ICE powered.

  21. I was told repeatedly that electric motor cars are dead silent- no motor sound, no tire sound, no wind sound, no creaking at the factory-supplied structural cracks.... nothing. What does every second of motion out of this car entail ear-splitting, migraine-level noise???

  22. Those are all old ones, though...and Tacomas, not Tundras. The thing I see here in NE Ohio is a lot of cab and bed rust out on 10-20 yr old Rams, Fords and GM trucks...frames probably rusty also. Rusty framed Tacomas from 15-20 years ago have no relevance on what they are building now.

  23. @oldshurst442 What are you rumbling about? If something means nothing to you it doesn't means it means nothing to other people. Yes, Toyota is Japanese company, but Tundra is designed and built in US giving jobs to thousands people in US. On the American Made index Tundra is rated at #16 while F-150 is rated #44, SIlverado is at #77. And BTW those frame rusts everyone comes back to all the time were happening 20 years ago. That argument is long gone.

  27. I'm thinking this counts. I "spot" it almost daily, on my classic GM car calendar that I get at the parts department at the dealership. For July 2020, the poster child, photographed in what looks like John Steinbeck country, is this - definitely a Pontiac GTO, somewhere between '69 and '73, but sure would like to know what's under the hood. I can only think of 2 possible contenders. My dad had the basic LeMans version of this coupe that we picked up used for about $1 K or $1.5 K when it was 6 years old and with about 48,000 miles. It had the inline 250 c.i. 6 cyl. and no power gizmos. Even though we got it for the dog, because the seats were vinyl and our primary car's seats were cloth, it was the most reliable car my parents ever had.
