  • So, we got our little Rav4 back and it needed a few repairs before it was ready to rock and roll again, After I took care of her few issues and was making my final walk around we stumbled upon some poverty level paraphernalia. Guess she will go to detail next !

Of course, they'll either lose everything, die, or be stuck on the methadone program where they'll have to line up at a clinic for the rest of their lives every morning. I'm not being judgmental.. but it just seems like a big hassle all-round.

    3:40 about the straps on the back seats; to expand the rear cargo area, you fold the rear seats forward (after removing the headrests), lift the seats up from the rear and push them forward. The straps have a hook at the end which goes into a loop to hold the seats in place and keep them from falling down.

You just never know. I might contact the police on this just to be sure. That's scary stuff finding that in there.
