Random thought thread. Anything goes.

usually with warranty work, they tend to look at the problem and if the modification could have damaged the given area.

with springs, if it isn't pertaining directly to the suspension, they probably won't worry about it or hassle you about it. there again, that would be your fight to fight.

I had a truck once that had a funky rattle to it and it was after I did the intake and exhaust. it was still under the 3 yr/36k mile warranty and turned out to be a lose connector that needed a zip tie somewhere in the dash. my ears are crap so I really couldn't tell where it was coming from.

the yaris is soooooo much more fun with springs and sway bar. (it's more fun with a supercharger too but those are big numbers).

funny story (random thought)... I remember there was a gas station that would give you a free carwash token for every $10 worth of gas you bought. this was when I first started driving. I had a 1993 geo metro with an 8 gallon tank. I could not for the life of me (even with premium) put $10 worth of gas in my car. Once I got it up to like $9.50 and the guy asked why I didn't top it off. I responded "I overflowed the tank". he gave me a token out of pitty... Now I'm showing my age. I think it was either 89 or 99 cents a gallon for regular back then.

That is funny because my first car was a Geo Metro.
It used to say it was flooded when there wasn't a drop of water anywhere in sight. Haha.
I feel a bit old myself.
I think back to the days of pre-ethanol and affordable gas.
Now a gallon of gas costs you more than a burger and glass of fizzy.
