Hello.  I presently drive a VW, but am seriously considering a Toyota

interface of cars and displays the statistics on the PDA screens and

Although I know cars sold in US after 1996 need to have OBD, I wish to

On my highway there's a "speed meter" on the side to tell you how fast
you're driving (so to scare you to slow down I guess.)  I took my 2007
Camry, make sure no other cars are around, and set cruise at 75 mph,
and the speed meter picked me up as only going 69 mph.  I circled

Got one of the first HH last year around this time .... drove perfect

Is there a way to determine the correct position of the exhaust (front)
camshaft, independent of the gear markings?  (i.e. the shaft itself).

Interesting how fast drivers get back into the big vehicles once the
price of gas drops a little.  So you see $3 is not enough incentive to

demmies will strive for it thru taxes, that is if they are in ...
