As we say in the Air Force, there is not such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people!

sorry, i edit my post. the young owners (like me) are cranky for the reason i stated above. the older owners (like saildesign) are cranky because.....well.....they are old..... can u blame them :)

lol, better?

Shinare · 01-20-2011, 06:11 PM

What about old people who think they are young who are cranky all the time but don't think they are?

alienparking · 01-20-2011, 08:20 PM

newbie, so this is what you talk about

yaris2010RS · 01-21-2011, 01:39 AM

lol, this is a very bad example of a yarisworld thread...... (unless we talk about oil or what type of brakes (slotted or drilled) or hypermilling.... other then that we are a friendly bunch)

check out DIY section for good helpful threads

(i found if u get a pic and fill out ur region u can find alot of local deals. thats how i got a lowering kit for a steal in my opinion)

ironcar621 · 01-21-2011, 08:49 AM

Bad thread---I hope so---this is my first visit

R2D2 · 01-21-2011, 10:07 AM

The problem is NOT that this is a bad thread. The problem is the negative responses. The OP's question was quite valid- if anyone had found a way to help with accumulation on the rear window.

One "big value" to a forum such as this is collective knowledge and experience of many made available- little tips that make a vehicle more enjoyable. Not all of them have to be earth shattering or complicated. Where the thread went wrong was people passing judgement on the question. As usual tk-421 is right on about steering clear of threads one has no interest in or contribution for.

The same is true with the oil threads and the hypermiling threads-the only issue is the rude sarcasm from folks with attitudes who shouldn't be posting there in the first place.

Generally this is a fantastic forum with a lot of great and helpful folks and a great place to spend time. The mods are more than fair IMO.

nah why let a good thing die. lol

yaris2010RS · 01-27-2011, 03:21 PM

most helpful tip on here was the rear wiper placement change. the rain x is also a good idea but a PIA

birdman · 01-28-2011, 02:43 AM

I'm sure glad mine has the rear wiper. I have the OEM spoiler and mud flaps that I think look nice but do little to nothing. An intermittent rear wiper would be nice on dirty slushy winding mountain roads where you lose rear vision in minutes. The single speed rear wiper isn't ideal but it's a lot better than nothing. When I think of cars I owned years ago this little car is a marvel.
