Unhappy It pains me to leave her :/

My FJ at the Dealer.

I took it back to my favorite Toyota Dealer, Toyota of El Cajon, CA today. And standing there watching them jack her up on the lift really pulled at my heart strings. There were like four guys probing her, flashlights all jammed up in her front end, even taking photos of her that will most likely be spread all over the Internet. They were slapping her on the rear end, and rubbing her rear pumpkin. I felt violated. I couldn't take it anymore. I started walking over towards the four men huddled under her and yelled, "get your grubby hands off my gal you bastids!" No I didn't =)

I'm in for the second time for a passenger front diff seal leak. My rental car is an 08 four banger Ford Eclipse. Dealer is awaiting feedback from Toyota USA. Hopefully their techs will be able to figure out the problem.

Thanks for reading. I'll update info when I get it.

For those of you who feel my pain thanks in advance.

HA you said "touching her pumpkin".

That is when there would have been and A$$ kicking.
Oh and by the way enjoy that sweet fuel economy for the ford.

Re: It pains me to leave her :/

Sorry about having to leave your lady, but your description of the event was quite humorous.

Good old El Cajon...one of the few parts of San Diego that I don't miss.

And I could have had a Yaris! I couldn't do it.

It's hard to leave your baby with them, but you need to get the problem solved. Be patient, you want it right, she'll thank you afterwards.

You will get her back soon enough. Sorry to hear that you have to put up with a four banger.
