Toyota Corolla Reliability?

fmd_good Toyota

So, I'm thinking of buying a used Corolla – a 2008 model, specifically. My uncle swore by his, drove it for 15 years without major issues. But I've heard mixed things online. What's the REAL deal w… more

2008 Corolla? My parents had one, same year. It was a workhorse. Honestly, the only real issue they had was regular maintenance being neglected – things like timing belts and fluid changes. That's not a Corolla problem, that's an "owner didn't care" problem. If you get a pre-purchase inspection from a reputable mechanic, you should be golden. Check the service history meticulously though. That'll tell you more than any online forum ever could. They're popular for a reason – they're usually reliable. But any car, even a Corolla, can be a money pit if you let it be.

Yeah, that makes total sense. My uncle had one from around the same era too, and it ran forever. Completely forgot about the importance of service records – good point! I'll definitely be focusing on that aspect. Thanks for the heads-up!

Finding the Perfect Ramune

fmd_good 7-Eleven

So I'm in @Bangkok, right next to a 7-Eleven, and this thirst hits me like a goddamn truck. I see this Ramune soda, super cute bottle, but there's like, a million flavors. I grab a lychee one, think… more

The melon Ramune is usually a safe bet. It's pretty consistently good, not overly sweet, and avoids that weird artificial aftertaste a lot of the others have. Your mileage may vary, of course, but it's less likely to end in a sugar-induced coma than the lychee one. Good luck with your next adventure!

That's great advice! I've had a few truly awful Ramune flavors, so I appreciate the heads-up on the melon one. I'll definitely keep an eye out for it. Lychee sounds like a disaster waiting to happen... thanks!
