Y&R - Victor's Wig, Hair Color and Toyotas |

When he was talking to Nikki and Nicholas today, I found Victor's wig
to be very distracting. I think it detracts from his looks. For that
matter, the overdone hair color that Nicholas' is using lately does
not look good either. A while back, when Nicholas' hair was buzzed
short, I thought it made him look much more handsome and sexy than his
longer, colored hair does today.
What do the rest of you think? Do you prefer a man to hide beneath
phony hair like Victor's, or proudly hold their balding head high? And
what about hair color? A friend of mine owns a lovely red Solara
convertible. I can imagine how beautiful Diva might look driving
around town in such a Toyota with her natural color hair blowing in
the wind.
I think it's significant that Toyota is about the only car company
that continued to produce convertibles, right through the '80's and
'90's when American car makers stopped making them. Some of those old
Celica's are very collectible. Perhaps for some people (Mrs.
Chancellor for example) coloring their hair is a good idea. For
others, such as Nicholas, I wish they'd throw the hair color away and
go with a nice, masculine haircut.
My Matrix's name is Virginia, and yes, Ravl, she is a perfect car! I
have driven more than a million miles on all the Toyotas I've owned
over the years, and they've never let me down. Although I've only had
her since May, Virginia and I have traveled almost 15,000 miles. She
has a manual transmission, which besides getting better gas mileage,
makes her a lot of fun to drive. I've changed Virginia's oil several
times already which she appreciates. (I believe attending to such
intimate details like oil changes and other maintenance yourself are
very important to the bonding process and developing a healthy
relationship with your car.)
There are just two things I would like to change:
Her air conditioning compressor runs whenever Virginia's defroster is
turned on. Sometimes, it is desirable to run the compressor to remove
humidity from the air, but not all the time, especially in colder
weather. I think I can fix this myself by disconnecting the cable that
goes to the switch on the air control selector. The A/C can still be
turned on manually (with the A/C switch) if I choose to do so when
running the defroster. (I have a manual transmission, I know enough to
determine when to shift... I know enough to determine when to run the
A/C compressor.)
The other thing I'd like to change is to be able to turn off
Virginia's headlights without having to shut off her engine. There's
probably a fix for this, but it will take a little more figuring out
than the defroster.
In conclusion, the Toyota Corolla Matrix is a great car that I would
recommend to anyone. However, I would not recommend men like Nicholas
to color their hair or for men like Victor to wear wigs, especially
when driving in a convertible!

Be careful, that might void your warranty.

Why? I don't have automatic headlights on, but I do always turn on my
headlights during the day, as well, of course, as at night. Some years ago
they discovered that driving with your headlights on during the day cuts way
down on wrecks. Seems that people are more likely to >see< your car when you
have your lights on, day or night.
So, as it is a safety thing, why would you want to turn your headlights off?
I mean it isn't using any more energy and you don't really "see" them. So
why?
Just curious.

Toyota has a TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) on disabling the DRLs
(Daytime Running Lights). It seems they are fairly unpopular and there have
been many requests to disconnect them.
Ask at your dealer about the DRL-disable TSB.
If you meet resistance, you can join the Yahoo group Toyotas_Only. The TSB
is posted there in the Files section.

You both are misunderstanding what I mean. I like the "Daytime Running
Light" feature and agree that it improves safety. On previous cars, I
would often turn the headlights on during the daytime. But the problem
is this: when the ignition is turned to "on" and the parking brake
(manual transmission) is released, the lights come on in the "daytime"
mode. The headlights come on, but at a reduced brightness. If it is
dark enough outside, after a delay of about 15 seconds the lights
switch to the "nighttime" mode. The headlights go to full brightness
and the taillights, fog lights (if turned on) and other nighttime
running lights come on.
There is absolutely no way to turn off the lights. Reapplying the
parking brake doesn't turn them off and there's no manual switch to
turn them off either. The only way is to shut off the engine. This is
an annoyance if I pull into a driveway, parking lot, etc. and wish to
stop for a short while while waiting for someone. If the weather's bad
I'd want to keep the heat or A/C running, but don't want to leave my
headlights shining into someone's window.
The "stalk" switch has three settings: "Auto", "Parking Lights On",
"Headlights On". I just wish there was a forth setting: "Off", but I
know I'm being very picky. There is so much to like about the Corolla
Matrix that this is a very minor complaint. I would not hesitate to
buy one just because of this.
BTW: Does anyone know why Toyota chose the model name "Tacoma"? A
friend thinks it sounds like a cancerous growth. ("The doctor said I
have a highly malignant Tacoma on my back!") I tend to think it was
named after the woman who kept going out and buying nothing but
Mexican food for her children. They called her "Taco Ma".

I thought that it was named after the city in Washington. Or does Tacoma mean
something in Japanese?
Inquiring minds want to know.
BTW, the reason Exxon changed its name from Enco, low these many years ago, was
because they had started selling fuel in Japan where the word Enco meant enema. So
they came up with Exxon which has no meaning in ANY language.
So, maybe Tacoma means something in Japanese and they were just lucky to hit on a
word that refers to a city in the US.

You are misunderstanding what I said. Those ARE your Daytime Running
Lights.
DRLs are designed to be on every time, all the time, with NO possibility of
control by you; that is the point of them. The idea is that you are too
stupid to know what's good for you, so other people (just like you, but in
a position of power, which you're not) will decide for you what's good for
you and push it down your throat whether you like it or not.
If you want to be able to control the lights yourself, and be able to turn
them on and off whenever your little heart desires, you need to take it to
the dealer and tell them to disable the DRLs using the procedure outlined
in the relevant TSB, which is number EL011-00.

It sounded good to the marketing people. Me, I keep thinking Taco Bell. In
fact, among the cognoscenti, "Tacoma" is often shortened to "Taco".
From Toyota's FAQ, located here http://tinyurl.com/4e2yh :
"Tacoma - From the Salish Indian word for the mountain that provided water
to their tribe (later changed to Mount Rainier). The name suggests images
of strength and power"
Tacoma is also in the names of several cities in Washington State.
By the way, "Tacoma" is a name used in North America only. Elsewhere the
vehicle has other names, such as Hi-Lux.

Enco was a name used only in the southern US. The Exxon Chemical Company
predated Exxon the oil company by seven years.

Well, yes and no. First of all, thank you for turning me on to the
"Toyotas_Only" Yahoo group. Besides the TSB you mentioned, there are
also messages and photos posted by members showing different ways of
disabling the DRLs. It's explained that disabling the DRL's will also
disable the "Twilight Sentinel" feature that automatically turns on
the headlights and other lights at night, making the entire system
work manually. What I seek, however, is more control than that because
I'd like to keep using the DRL's and "Twilight Sentinel" feature, but
also have the capability to manually shut off (ALL) the lights when
desired.
It can be frustrating when people in power try to push something
stupid on you, however to quote former president of MIT Charles Vest,
"In the end, I believe that knowledge and skill trump ignorance, and
that optimism trumps pessimism". Applying his sage advice to Toyotas,
and this problem in particular, I believe that after determining
exactly how this particular circuit operates, I can install a toggle
switch that will do exactly what I want. (I will, of course, also
follow Patricia's advice and perform the modification so that it is
reversable and does not affect Virginia's warranty.)
I loved the old Toyota ads years ago that went, "Oh, oh, oh oh... What
a feeling to drive a Toyota". It's still a great feeling, but it's an
even greater feeling when you can fix your own Toyota. It is very
empowering to no longer be at the mercy of the dealer or other
mechanic for every repair. One of the wonderful things about Toyotas
is that they are very easy to work on. I encourage every Toyota owner
to learn all they can about their car... purchase the factory "Service
Manual" for your vehicle. They have excellent step-by-step
instructions for everything from checking tire pressure to rebuilding
the transmission. Even if you are not up to tackling all the repairs
yourself, you will better understand what is wrong and be less likely
to be cheated by an unscrupulous repairman. Knowledge is power!
Besides Toyotas now, what is your opinion of Victor's wig and
Nicholas' hair color. Do you think a man looks more attractive by
putting on hair that is obviously fake, or would he look better going
with a short, masculine haircut (or shaved head) that doesn't try to
make excuses for his hairline? And what do you think about a younger,
very handsome man growing his hair longer and then using blatant hair
color? Wouldn't he look sexier with his hair buzzed short and not
worrying about a bit of salt and pepper he might have? From personal
experience I can testify that a little snow on the roof in no way
implies there's not a raging fire in the furnace!

I remember Sohio, and there was also a Standard Oil of Kentucky as well as
Eastern States Standard Oil and Standard Oil Company of New York (Alias
SOCONY, later Socony-Vacuum and Socony-Mobil) Standard Oil of Indana became
Amoco, which was also purchased by BP. Has BP undone the decision of 1914?
