What Did You Learn Today?

[sapradogxl Advanced Member Find all posts View Profile Close sapradogxl]

When I think what I have learnt today, there are many things that spring to mind.

The sun is shinning, and spring is on it's way. People are supposed to be happy, and that is what this forum is all about. Lets just stop whinging, back-stabbing people etc etc.
Lets get this very informative forum back to what it used to be. I remember getting on this forum many years ago before I owned a Prado(now on my 2nd one) and finding it full of informative information about build-ups, issues people had with their vehicles etc, and people sharing ideas. Geez I even bought my 1st Prado from a guy on here!!!!

This forum has become one that has people having digs about each other, people leaving because someone said something about them etc.

We should all just simply be on this forum to find out information, provide ideas, and suggestions to other Prado owners.

I was very proud and excited to be part of a great team who orgainsed the 2012 PP GTG in SA, and met some great people( for those of you who were there, I am not a foot taller, as my back is better).

I have to say, all this threatening to leave etc is a little childish. If you want to leave, leave, do not advertise you are going to leave, simply go!

If you want to participate in this forum, adhere by the rules, do not have a cry about moderators, they give up their time to ensure it runs smoothly. Moderators, we thank you, but please also ensure that you go about your roles respectfully.

Lets get this forum tidied up, and back on track.

That is my two bobs worth

Now lets get out there, and enjoy our Prados that we own, as there is enough to worry about in life!!!!!

Hey Dodgy, so your saying this forum is about Prado's are you? Geez glad you cleared that up, I really wasn't sure anymore

I also learned today the Dodgy Dave, aka sapradogxl is still alive, unless Lorna has hacked his account again

Cheers Andrew

Guys,

I have been busy trying to work out what next mod to do on the Prado, but have had to try to work thorugh all the other stuff on this website to try to find it. Found it all too hard, so have just done nothing.
I am alive, and kicking, and the sun is out, so I am back, thinking of my next trip/mod/catchup with all my PP mates!
Oh, did I mention I am off the booze???

Guys ... did I mention I am off the booze???

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha........ Oh my god that is so fricking hilarioius... ROFL, LOL + any other acronym that means I'm laughing.

Today I learnt that SAPradoGXL is a comedian

And, based on his previous post, is surprisingly literate!

I learnt today that dodgy is a liar...

Dodgy will learn in the future that those that can stop for a can stop will and that those that dont can anymore will also stop for a can stop while on trips with those that do can and stop!!!

i learnt that the nice man at caltex filled my wifes prado, cleaned the windows and put a gas bottle in the back for her, i also learned he forgot to put the bloody fuel cap back on!!!.

just an update , i learnt that the nice people at caltex paid toyota to remove and clean the tank filler section, to check for any dust that may have got in from the 20 minute drive home on a gravel road. oh and pay for some filters at the next service.

Despite the frustration, have to be happy with that outcome....

Yep, +1 to Caltex and the employee (hopefully he's still employed!!) for admitting the mistake

Just out of curiosity did you go back to the servo 'all guns blazing' or with a calm 'guys you made a mistake' attitude?

Cheers

I'm impressed with the servo's response!
