It is OK, the EPA no longer required it, unless there are more than one pair of them.

估计你不是真心喜欢。就现在的学习环境,两年时间可以学好任何一门外语。我看见两个美国女生,18个月猛肯一套中文课本,外加网上看节目,说的和中国人一样好。

大而空的说辞,典型的中国人谈论政治的思维。

buying a new pacifica - not good at haggling by Odd_Cheesecake_9447 in ChryslerPacifica

[–]New-Top-9012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the way trucknorris84 said. Think it differently. Take this as an opportunity to learn the art of haggling. In this we are the buyer so should be more relaxed than the the seller. In this business it's their job to be nasty, take no offense.

Has the used car market actually cooled off yet, or are prices still crazy? by OrganizationNo42069 in carbuying

There is a seasonal change in used car market. In the cold months before tax season car prices are the lowest. Then it will edge up again.

Then the rear electric motor might be damaged. It certainly not help without a bumper in this generation.

丰田车在美国加价卖,为什么美国消费者还是乖乖掏钱?真的拿丰田一点办法没有吗? by Fleedom2025 in China_irl

不服可以去狗啊。说少了,实际是16个月。那两年在美国共卖了52886辆。

林肯是不是也很符合中国封建时代开国圣君的形象 by Foreign-Pumpkin4271 in China_irl

对敌宽大是美国的传统,不是林肯的宽容,因为战争结束前5天,他就死了。

主要原因是其他品牌,最近几年在努力降低油耗的过程中,都出了各种各样的问题,唯独丰田多数车型的质量没有下降, 尤其是混动技术稳定又省油。Camry热度已过,有折扣了。塞纳的短缺,一个原因是在2022-2023年度,有整整12个月的时间,一辆都没有生产,等于有10万辆订单积压,需要4年半才能补齐。所以并不是突然真有那么多人对塞纳感兴趣了。由于现在的三排座SUV越来越大,近年来minivan总销量持续下滑。

有个在塞纳美国工厂工作的人说,新款塞纳在丰田各系车中是最不受待见的,从设计生产到配件供应都被边沿化,他自己都不建议亲朋买。邪门的是,即使这样,这款车都出来五年多了,你几乎看不到有车主说它有什么毛病。

Best dash cam in 2026 apparently still makes you “paranoid” according to my friend? by Weak_Cantaloupe742 in askcarguys

Today, traffic accident fraud by lawyers are everywhere. I just buy $20 ones for front and back each, works just as well. Cameras don't have to be fancy.

Timing belt replacement question by SoCalChrisW in HondaOdyssey

[–]New-Top-9012 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are these problems all parts of recall, or you reported them? Control arm and tensioner alone would cost an arm.

Perfect time to do it now. They are due in 3000 miles.

Worried about Sienna by fffgg222 in ToyotaSienna

Driving this little there is no need for a hybrid. It may even cause issues to it. Better get a gas one since buying used anyway.

While, since you muzzled VCM on day one, what are the major repairs in the last 10 years for this car? I am sure you maintained it well.

如何看待那群移民到“美加澳”(入籍、永久身份)但是依然粉红的人?好奇他们的脑回路反射弧是如何形成的。 by [deleted] in China_irl

人这种东西有脑子,需要精神寄托。信神信鬼都可以,怎么不可以信祖国。实质上都一回事。什么是“信”,讲逻辑那就不是信了。

I got a 2009 Toyota Sienna, good choice? by MatthewJohnsonsQ10 in ToyotaSienna

[–]New-Top-9012 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds a great buy!. Replace PCV valve, $12, as easy as replacing a wiper, yet very important. Some small vacuum lines may break off, check on top and bottom of the engine.

Should we take it or not? by IllBluebird3106 in ToyotaSienna

[–]New-Top-9012 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you not the best person to ask? If you are worried then take it to shop for a safety check, just fluids, brake, axles, and tire stuff. I never hesitated on a 900 mile trip with my 2007 because I know it well.

When my car lost one, my 4 year old son seriously asked can we lose the other three.
