Better learn to fix your car

it would appear this thread wasn't particularly well thought out,

 

it has done some of this..

 

I was probably being cheeky calling out OP, they probably meant what you said above. Yes that I do follow

 

I'm confused on what the actual point for this thread here was.

 

I think it has something do to about fitting larger tires without rubbing.

 

What's the over/under on when this thread gets shut down for being too political? My money is on page 4.

 

If you wanna bet, say $100, and Venmo me, I’ll get it shut down right quick. For $250 I’ll take a month off.

 

rellim reeb.

 

Crown Royal?

 

Nobody calls it that, they just call it Crown. Don't be such a boomer

 

What... what? There's more than one 5,000 mile oil change?
Crap! I'm overdue... again! :^)

 

4? Maybe

 

Can't help it, that's where I'm from!

 

Excuse me while I change my shirt. My old one has coffee all over it....thank you very much.

 

B

Yes and apple! I feel OP owes me a glass before the cost jumps 15%-20%

 

There are 2 key takeaways:

1) The sky is falling so now you have to make your own spare parts.

2) Everybody hates Economics, especially anyone that had to take a class.

 

The title of this thread should be
Hoard a Lifetime of Filters and Fluids Before the Tariffs Kick In.

 

Who is buying parts for their 4Runner? Isn't this why we bought our 4Runners?

And why would a shop charge me more on labor because of Tariffs?

 

Well it looks like you have money to waste anyway.

 

Ripple effect longer-term if tariffs stick around and remain as broad as they are. Techs gotta eat too.

Or it could just be held up as a convenient excuse for chains to charge more and see if they get away with it, we’ve seen plenty of that from companies the past few years.

 

Whew! I'm in the clear! All the filters I stock are made in Thailand.

 

In before the lock down

 

6th gen ORPs are now pushing 60k with destination and unavoidable port installed accessories, and people are still lined up around the block to buy them.

Just stop being poor, some would tell you.

 

Which 4Runner part is made in China, Mexico or Canada? Because those are the new countries on the tariff list.

 

Because OP is an economist! What don’t you get???

 

Not the 4runner, but aren't tacomas and tundras made in Mexico?

Edit - assembled in Mexico. Will be interesting what those sales do if price increases 25%

 

Tacomas were made in California and Mexico, they are just made in Mexico now. Tariffs might make them move production back to the states.

 

Yes, you are right. Just like Mustang, Silverado, Jeep Compass, all the engines for Dodge, Chrysler etc. But yes, tariffs will help American companies.

 

Should I learn to code too?
