Is that why you bought your CSVT?

Heh.. My old 1987 Dodge Omni dropped a right-rear door just when I was securing my older son in his child seat.. I had to replace the hinge's pin with a 6-in nail so I could drive the car again (but no kids in it until it went to the scrapyard!)

And I thought I had it bad with my 93 Tercel! I had to put a liter of oil every week (4-500 km) starting at 100,000 km. At the same time I had a 1991 Hyundai Excel that took the same amount of oil, but it had 323,000 km!

At 223,000 km the Tercel decided that a little oil in the radiator and a little coolant in the oil pan was a good idea, but I differed..

I just wish I could've taken a sledgehammer to that Toyota - which is the reason I won't buy another one. I'll buy Fords instead!
