goodbye ralliart

11000 miles and have had to bring the car in for two warranty claims before 6000miles. Glad to get out of this ticking time bomb and into a new trd package tundra.

Got 21 on the trade so I think that's good since I got it 25 new. I've met a lot of awesome car enthusiast and a few ahole cops. It was fun while it lasted. Thanks for all the info

I don't think I've had a car in the last 20 years that didn't have a warranty repair within the first six months to a year (and thats four new ones). Usually smog controls related - sensors and such. Sometimes its just a matter of getting a few manufacturing bugs out and then your good to go. And of course Toyotas NEVER have issues.

And none of your mods had anything to do with your issues ?

You cant modify the car and expect it to have 0 issues...

Did you trade it in with the mods, or will you be selling them in the For Sale section?
