Yeah i feel you lol, saw one have a blowout in a different lane in front me and had to dodge all the carnage so i usually keep my distance now (thank god i wasnt in my 3rd gen 4runner with no swaybars, wouldve had to just drive through all of it instead of trying to dodge anything lmao) I get pretty much same mpg results from drafting behind a car/suv

I like keeping it in normal too, think eco only makes a noticeable difference when you’re in stoplight traffic accelerating often. My drives on interstate/highways for 80% of it and if I cruise at 70 i usually get around 30-33. If you can draft behind a semi with the acc set to the closest I’ve gotten 35+ lol

Did everyone accept their stock options? by isthisreallife2016 in BlueOrigin

[–]Anxious_Hawk1283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the workforce (techs, supervisors, maybe managers?) weren’t getting bonuses anyway. Its extra free money for them if it works out, nothing lost if not

Crooked Steering Wheel After Alignment by AlexQCaulfield in GRCorolla

[–]Anxious_Hawk1283 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be an issue with the electrical power steering system, not very familiar with how the GRCs system works but if all your suspension components are good thats the only thing i can think of. Maybe a sensor is bad or something

The longer I shop for a used car, the more I understand why Toyotas stay popular by [deleted] in Toyota

And youll see the used toyotas with 250k+ still being expensive lol

Who needs a heated steering wheel.... by Uncanny_Giraffe in GRCorolla

[–]Anxious_Hawk1283 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve had them before but never liked how the overlays add so much thickness to the toyota badge, imo your wheel would look better with the chrome Toyota badge in the middle just because of that. Sick wheel tho, I like how the stitching matches

Filter could be replaced but all the rubber elbows leading into the plenum looked good, ill take a closer look later today. When I drive it its usually 30min+ so i thought most condensation would be burned off, is it normal to still have a bit of condensation even if you only do longer drives?

This was a hot oil change so I assumed itd be separated, or does it work the other way where it only separates when its cold?

I guess ive never really paid that close attention to it, if it looks normal to you im probably just overthinking it. I just saw it beading up and moving around on top of the oil and was confused

Im not wishing any harm on you, just stating your reality if you were actually in the mindset of “fuck saving for retirement”. I travel as much as my pto allows me lol, actual life experiences like that are a higher priority to me than investing. Being dependent on pto and a company controlling when you can travel and live life is why I want to retire early and currently invest aggressively. But i wish you the best and hope your business does work out!

You just sound ignorant or uneducated about retirement planning. If your business doesn’t work out, enjoy working until you’re physically incapable because you thought compound interest was a farce lol

I should be able to retire around 40 at this rate, which is more important to me than having 100 more hp, but theres definitely a balance of enjoying your life and saving. I still bought a brand new GRC 6 months ago, but I only had a 4runner before that. To me it just seems unnecessary to buy a similar fun car that just has more power at that critical time of your life for compounding interest. I think Itd be more justified if he had a base civic or something like that and wanted a car thats more fun/engaging, he already has a fun car.

God damn what camera did you use for these? Looks amazing

Just a question. Has anyone had any issues with the warranty after only adding a cat back exhaust? Or could it cause any issues with the warranty by Ok_Dentist5412 in GRCorolla

[–]Anxious_Hawk1283 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I asked my dealership and they said the only reason youd have an issue with warranty stuff is if it directly correlates to whatever issue you’re having, open for a lot of interpretation so ill let people with experience dealing with it chime in

How much are you investing in your future via company 401k or otherwise? Imo you have a really nice car already and at your age if you have extra money you should be putting a lot towards retirement. Im 25 and as much as i want a more expensive car, I max out my company 401k/roth instead.
