I live in northern Alberta red neck country, and some of the lifted truck abortions you see running around are truly breathtaking. You on the other hand have good taste.
My son was backing out of our driveway and hit our recycling bin, and smashed the taillight on my wife’s 2010 highlander, we found a replacement on Amazon and it fit fine, the only trouble was having to remove so many interior pieces, too much in my opinion. This video shows that some parts are good enough for the age of the vehicles.
Thanks Peter - I always learn something from each task, even if not applicable to my vehicle. Your patient and professional approach to the smallest tasks is something we can all learn from.
Those look just like the tail lights I just replaced on my 2012 Tundra... AKKON brand, available on Amazon for less than $100 for the pair. I also reused the OEM harness and everything fit perfectly on my truck
Fine job! Think I would fix the mirrors, get a radio in it that you're happy with, and call it quits. Amazing how much money was spent on crap to make it look and drive worse.
They are projects. You take one to make videos and when a customer needs something, a family friend or a favor, you let her go. Probably being used as a grocery getter or college student purposing is my guess. College town in next area over.
all cars are female. It has traditionally been the way of vessels at sea where our lives are in control of the vehicle. temperamental and needing maintenance and service, but if ou treat her right, she sacrifices herself to someday maybe even save yours. Throughout history, men have been the stewards and providers and through that boats, planes, cars are the fairer sex. You want to have a bad day? treat your vehicle poorly.
English lost most of its genders many many many years ago. Although most of modern English (~90%) is borrowed from other languages (Norman Invasion playing a role), its roots are still Germanic. Genders in language are not the same as sexes. For instance in French you have masculine and feminine as genders. Has nothing to do with the word being a "female" word, it's just basically like a type one or a type two word. German has three, male female and neuter -- der, die and das. English has lost most of it, but it can still be acceptable to refer to vehicles as a "she," not because the vehicle is a female, it is simply a reflection of history.
