He picked the car up, but he did get them to note on the repair order that the fouled plugs were due to overfilled oil, so thats something. On mine, I ordered a new cap but I cleaned the old one up and the mouth of the resevoir well it should seal better until the new one gets here.
Got the van cleaned up today, and the Mercedes yesterday. This is what two weeks of van life with kids and dog looks like, this is after throwing out the McDonalds bags and empty milkshake cups:
After the carwash vaccuming, and me vacuuming and de-dog hairing with a lilly brush (which is a GREAT tool) turned out pretty good:

Not to get too deeply involved in your personal family affairs, but maybe (?) it is time for your kids to start getting some lessons in Pick-Up-Your-Trash 101. They are old enough.

You’re preaching to the choir! This is an argument we have in our household on a regular basis.
My wife is not neat either. She will step over junk on the floor and it just doesn’t even register to her that she should pick that up and throw it away. The kids have taken to that. I’m somebody that always tidies up a room when I walk out of it, so this has been a challenge for all the years we have been together.
It’s gotten better…but it’s nowhere near solved yet.
Is the leather slightly shinier than it's supposed to be or is it just me? Not that it's reasonable to keep it ehh "squeaky matte/clean" when you're actually using the car, just noting.

I hate to burst your bubble...but it will never be solved. It's not that bad in my house, but there are aspects of it with "I can't"...like, "I can't fold that rectangular towel as well as you"......

Yes, the leather needs to be cleaned and conditioned. I was going to do that this weekend but didn't have the energy left in the tank...

I was going to say the same. I had to look at his signature to confirm the year because I thought his was fairly new. Maybe the camera? If not, that's a lot of wear on the seats/leather for a 2020 IMO.

Its not, its a lot of wear lol. It only has 17,000 miles on it. They just need to be cleaned well and conditioned and it will come back, it hasn't been done in 6 months or so. Remember theres a 75 lb golden retriever that sits in the front seat and kids are climbing around with shoes on and the seats are being sat on with grime on the surface of the leather which shines them up. That car is ridden hard!
The leather is actually really good quality nappa leather, cleans up really nice.
As they've gotten older food isn't as messy. It used to be you had french fries and chicken nuggets everywhere and ground into the carpet, but they are better at keeping food in their mouths now lol

I have two nephews, 4 and 6, I get it. They love Happy Meals.
I put my original V8 4Runner in a car show today. (Last show of the season). Astonished that nobody knew Toyota had a V8 in the generation. And nobody had any clue what full-time 4WD was. No even the older die hard car guys
