Thanks for the warm welcome guys, definitely feel the love. *man hugs* LOL

I just went to the dealer to purchase red coolant, the stupid Ford mechanics put in green coolant.
Got fresh tranny fluid too.

I am loving every inch of the car.

Congrats on the car purchase. Make sure that 100K mile maintenance was done and flush that green mess out. There was a thread about the benefits of sticking with the toyota red and leaving the green mess out our cars.

When you refer to the 100K miles maintenance, are you referring to timing belt/water pump?

I just refreshed the tranny fluid and radiator coolant. Did both in less than a hour.
Unlike other cars, the front apron does not have to be removed to drain the coolant. There are 2 holes, the driver side has the radiator drain plug right above it, the passenger side hole is to drain the reservoir. I just unplugged the reservoir hose from the radiator cap, wiggle it through the fan shroud, and put the hose through the hole. My garage is dry through the whole process.

Lexus/Toyota covered every single bit of little aspect building this car.

Changing the air filter has never been so easy!!!

I am so in love with this car.
