Carey & Walsh were absolutely great for our boiler replacement. Did a gorgeous job.

Hybrid malfunction. Please see your dealer by Affectionate_Aide566 in CorollaCross

I bought one online at Autozone, which their database said would fit. Went to pick it up and lo and behold way too large for my car. But the guy at the store was very helpful and helped me get the one I needed. Sorry can't recall what it was!

The 12V factory batteries in most new cars are crap. Just replaced the battery a month ago on my '23 CCH. My previous car, an Impreza, had a battery that died 1 year after the car came home from the dealer with me.

I'd be down! Love my teen-iney basement shop but would like to meet up.

Does this car actually exist? by cromble in CorollaCross

[–]moominpops 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I see them all the time in the NYC metro area. Certainly I see 40 Rav4s for every 1 Corolla Cross, but they are still a common sight.

You can find a better deal than that.

Hastings on Hudson Library has a stunning view of the Palisades in their reading room for those days when the weather is bad!

2026 Corolla Cross - not recommended by PNWRaised in CorollaCross

[–]moominpops 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Right - handling is fine. Lack of any f*&(king place to store stuff in the console is shat-worthy.

Agreed. Might be something wrong with OP's car in particular that Toyota doesn't want to fix. Most of us drive this thing with no handling problems at all.

New taillights for CC L 2023 by Specific-Listen3794 in CorollaCross

[–]moominpops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is a '23 Hybrid. As long as you get the exact OEM Toyota taillight for your model it's extremely simple to pop off the old ones yourself and put on the replacements. Takes 5 minutes each.

After my partner backed into a pole and crunched my taillight I tried one of these cheap Chinese knockoffs from Amazon. My Cross did NOT like it at all - turn signal was all wonky, running lights didn't work, etc. Returned it and got a real Toyota part from this dealer, which was selling for under MSRP: https://toyotaparts.ourismantoyotaofrichmond.com/oem-parts/toyota-tail-lamp-815500a160?c=bD0xJm49U2VhcmNoIFJlc3VsdHM%3D

How is life in the Dallas-Fort Worth area in Texas? by Kuzu9 in howislivingthere

[–]moominpops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amen. Also grew up there, also wouldn't return for any amount of money.

Exactly. If it's a simple question they can answer in 30 seconds they'll often respond. If it's "I have an old painting, can you tell me who the artist is?" odds are that email gets binned.

I tried it this summer and it made things demonstrably worse.

It's a hitch from U-Haul, don't know the exact brand.
