    Rolla getting on my nerves!

    Today i went into firestone station to get my lug bolt replaced that i snapped in 2 when i was taking off a stuck bolt, well i wanted to get an alighnemnt done, after waiting for 3 hours cause it was busy there, they told me my tie rod is bent (or worn out) and i need that replaced, they gave me a $151 estimate with labor at 82 an hour, with out that i can't pass inspection most likely.
    Every year sometin wrong wit the rolla and every year have to pay hundreds of dollars to replace sometin :(

    i have bad luck

    PS: my inspection is this month.... i was gonna take it to toyota to get my last inspection done cause my warranty expires in april, but idk, i might just take it somewhere else for inspection

    Tell me about it..lol - both with the MR2 and the Tacoma. It's the price you pay to drive..unless you want to pay a ridiculous amount for a new car with warranty.. :p
