  God damn it, they swapped the steering wheel to the wrong side!

  They brought that in 12 months ago and the automatic braking was activated by Toyota, Toyota fleet  or by my employer where as I had disabled it along with lane correction. I found out when I was braking in westal Rd Springvale. Had my foot on the brake slowly pulling to a stop when the vehicle locked up on the brakes and I almost got rear ended by the van behind me. Automatic lane correction requires to be clearly marked especially when merging or splitting when it can get confused where the driver knows where he or she knows where they want to go. This function is disabled by most drivers unless going interstate or long distances.

  10 , I had my ute  totaled  because  of a rear end that did damage to my tray only,  causing my insurance  assessor  to nullify my cover and notify the QMTD .  It cost me  $13,000 to get legal again , instead of $2000 for a replacement tray,  so much for insurance !.

  At <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmV5RBFmKNI&amp;t=950">15:50</a> he mentions privacy tinting on the rear windows. There is no maximum legal tint on any glass behind the driver. You can black it out completely and it&apos;s still legal. After all, trucks have no visibility through any glass behind the driver - often there isn&apos;t any glass there. &nbsp;Note he doesn&apos;t say what the % is.

  You can remove the ethanol from fuel, its easy to do but messy. Mix 1 gallon of fresh clean water with 4 gallons of e10, &nbsp;stir it vigorously until the water is emulsified. Let the mix stand overnight and pour the 3 1/2 gallons of denattured fuel off the top. If you are keen put the water mix in a still and split the half gallon of ethanol out of the water, add ice, an olive and enjoy.

  As far as the mods go, a blue mod plate fixies the problem because a mod plate over rides the build plate, reason you ask because the mod plate is installed by a mechanical engineer.

  I did a check on my latest car just 12 months ago and it cost $38 not $2. Still worth it but not $2.
