I did buy one crappy belt, one seemingly good one and then used a “follow come” from a similar car, when it was becoming a daily thing.

Will have to be brought in 7-14 days but has 6 month warranty.

But get vehicle checked before you put any more belts in on the off chance it is is not the belts.

NL Price?

In other news, I’m running through Serpentine belt one per day, what could be the cause?

Add 10% discount for NL.

Crappy belts. Slight possibility misaligned but probably crappy belts. What kind of belts are you buying?

That's not what extended means. Extended means go longer between oil changes. "High mileage" is what you're talking about and you don't need that till 150-200k miles

This is a very nice advice although he can still buy Tacoma and put hauling cart behind his car when he needs to carry so much.

Thay Tundra still too big for my eyes.

He can but wear and tear will be more on the Tacoma

It's literally 3-15k and had been a law since at least 2011 as long as you move people and get paid for it. And it's the responsibility of the OWNER of the car.

Remember that argument about owner vs employee? Well these are the kinds of things you have to deal with if you are not an employee. You cannot have it both ways. If you want Uber to protect you, you need to be employed by them. That's why they put on their contracts that you are independent. To shield them from responsibilities like this. That being said, is not the end of the world. The sky is not falling.

Just do 5 minutes research.

P.S. Y'ALL ARE BROTHERS! STOP INSULTING EACH OTHER AT THE DROP OFF A DIME OVER UNFOUNDED TALES!! I like y'all but chill please.

Car Talk › Re: Toyota Tundra Or Tacoma ..... Help Me Choose by radautoworks: 1:48pm On Feb 19, 2020

Kingdante:
Hello everyone.....

I am having a hard time choosing between 07 tundra (v6) and 08 Tacoma (v6).

Basically I need a pick up truck to move raw materials to my factory, I also need something abit sylish that i can sometime use for my every day run around.

Help me choose base on these factors

1. Durability
2. Maintenance
3. Availability of parts and man power
4. Ruggedity
5. Stylish
6. Resellers value

You need the tundra not the Tacoma. Tow/weight rating is more because you said you're moving raw materials and the ride is better in a tundra as it was also designed to be a people mover so your family will be comfortable in it. The Tacoma cab is small and anyone in the rear will be uncomfortable. Every other factor you mentioned is virtually the same between the two. Used to work for Toyota.

"Right now, Uber’s algorithm rewards drivers with higher ratings and more premium vehicles, matching them with highly rated passengers willing to pay more money for larger cars and comfortable service. "

It's not only about price but affordability. if you bring in 100,000 compressors and you sold them 10k each and they are universal my brother you go sell am finish within a week

Know the market price of certain parts and see if yours would be cheaper, remember there is nothing new in what you are doing but you can still make headway if you are creative

I started to agree with you but then cheaper is not going to cut it. Market is saturated. He needs to differentiate himself somehow. There is enough garbage sold here.
