Yup, I'm new...
First thing. Mods, you can delete the profile under the name of Poseidon. I created this because I was expecting my confirmation email to come through right away on this username/email, but it took a day, so I created a second account because I was impatient.
Second thing. I own a 2004 Toyota Solara SLE as well as a 2003 Ford Mustang Gt.
For a while, I absolutely hated Toyta after I got this car. I had the problem with it pulling to the left, but after my car being in the shop 18 times within the first year, I went to a lawyer about lemon law. Toyota refused to swap out my car, and instead of dealing with a lengthy battle to get this all taken care of, I just took 10k from Toyota as a settlement, and kept the car (with payments). I still love the car, and it still pulls to the left. Other problems that I've had is the sunroof making a terrible grinding noise (had to have that thing oiled down 2 times, and the window seal has popped 2 times (haven't taken it in for the second time yet), so that at highway speeds I get a nice wooshing sound in my left ear. The only other problem I had was finding the friggin oil filter. I don't think they could have found a stranger place to put it, but now that I know where it is, I'm fine. All in all, it's a good car, and with as many miles as I put on it each year, it's done well. I currently have 34,500 miles on it. I'm basically on here to chat with other car enthusiast as well as find out what else on my car has a TSV (if anything). So Hi, and I'll be around!

with the car.
Man, it does sounds like you got a lemon. I've never heard of having so many problems at one time. I'm glad your still happy with it after all the problems.
