Unreliable. That's more than routine maintenance

Yeah hopefully it falls off the lift and they total it so I don't have to worry about this unreliable vehicle...

It's required by law and not worth annoying the CHP over on a suv/daily driver

I know, but have you ever been pulled over for not having one? In all my years living there I cant recall getting pulled over for not having one on my car.

Nope, never ran one on any of my cars until we got the Outback. Since the holes are already in the bumper I just leave it now.

Successful day, after the wheels were installed I came home changed the spark plugs with Denso Iridium TT's and then did an oil change with a Wix filter and Castrol Edge High Mileage.
Probably should have just had the truck crushed since it's too much maintenance....

06 would be a GX470, which is what I wanted, but could not find in the condition and price I was willing to pay. The GX doesn't really have a direct Toyota counterpart, it's closest Toyota relative isn't sold here. There is no Lexus version of the Sequoia.

Sucks having to buy a new car AND spend money to do the service. Too bad you couldnt have had that be in the fee.
No not being a dick, being serious that having to do all this after just buying a car does suck (and Im having to do it as well)
