No.

 

Pants that give you a camel toe?

 

No

 

Oh God, please don't post those camel toe panties again. Seems we just recently moved past that. Some of us surf this place on our work computers....

 

No, not that. I surf this on my work pewter too.

@empty_lord I paid the dealer to do an alignment on our Rav4 and she still pulls to the right. The printout seems to indicate everything is in the specified range.

Thoughts?

 

No, but good guess.

 

Not road crown right? If they aligned it with the wheel not straight it’ll still say it’s in the green

 

Road crown? Meaning is the road perfectly flat? It seems to be. I'll drive it on a few more roads and see. May have to take it back to them.

 

Most roads peak in the center, for drainage. So everything pulls slightly to the right.

 

Random thought:
A spare tire that doubles as an air tank.

Sorry, couldn’t pass it up

 

Does anyone else get amazed with how reliable our trucks are. Not just the engine, but the fact that most of us are running 15-20 year old power steering pumps, AC components, alternators, starters etc. Toyota really made sure their suppliers provided quality parts. Some people are just now removing original CV axles too.

 

Yea most roads crown at the center for drainage. Typically you’ll always have a slight right pull if an alignment is done to center the wheel.

it drove me nuts to the point I aligned the truck with the wheel slightly off center and now it’s straight on most roads

 

I’m not running the original bed!

 

My ‘71 nova has the factory steering box and master cylinder.

 

Yep. 16 year old truck and I'm just going to be doing a bunch of updates now including some stuff that doesn't really need it, just because.

The only thing that would make my truck absolutely perfect would be a power driver seat so I could tune it to my weird body type. It annoys me to no end that there's no really good way to make it happen.

 

When it comes to other cars and products what do you guys expect for longevity?

 

The seat is liveable for me but the damn headrest. Who wanted a headrest thats 6" forward from your shoulders?

 

Are the older access cabs different than the new limited seats? My seat is amazing.

 

I've honestly never noticed an issue with the headrest. Are you sure it's not tilted forward?

 

I never liked the sequoias seats, but my extended cabs seats are fine. Titans seats are best by far.

dad wont let me call it an access cab anymore. Equated it to using an umbrella.

 

They don't tilt. I take it off on longer drives, not really safe but saves me from self inflicted scoliosis.

 

Interesting. I'm going to look more closely at mine. I don't even think about my headrest, since I never actually put my head on it. LOL

Operation walking trail rained out. I need a new indoor hobby. Im bored of my video game.

 

What's wrong with an umbrella?

 

Well based on other vehicles I've owned, and my friend's experiences, Toyota is doing better than most.

Same here. Luis must have an odd shaped body.

I knew an old guy that got his neck broken years ago when he got rear ended without a head rest. He lived but never regained feeling in his hands.

 

In my old taco I had to turn them backwards. Would that work?
