                Curious if they are gonna keep it or finally make a next generation. Crazy that people still buy a almost 10 year old car new.

                  That link from Snap says it will discontinue as of August but most of the other line will be rebranded as normal Toyotas.

                    A four door would be okay too.. i guess 😕  I just want to live in a world where you can buy a cheap, lightweight, shit-box car... that's rwd. FR-S is the closest thing out there, but I consider it to be more of a sports car. I want something with more of boxy sedan shape.... if only there was a car like that... 😄

                        That is a clerical error. Having done title work, I know you can just type pretty much anything in that box. Also, it's funny that they listed the color as red/black. Wouldn't want the police getting confused over that flat black hood of yours.

                                I got a beer ingredient kit. First time making beer, I've made wine before but not beer. It looks pretty straight forward, any tips from other home brewers? It's for an imperial but Brown.

                                  I've never made it but I have helped a buddy a few times and from what I gather cleanliness is of the utmost importance.  He's turned out some pretty good stuff to, not just drinkable but actually enjoyable!

                                      Yep, it's not hard to find people who are willing to try your beer. My Mr. Beer stuff turned out okay, but it has a strange taste in it. I think it's from the sanitizer, but I'm not sure. My first "real" batch will be going into bottles very soon, and I've got high expectations for it.

                                      Regardless, as pointed out, sanitation is very important. It's one thing that can completely ruin the whole batch, so the risk-to-rewards ratio of taking shortcuts in that area isn't very favorable.

                                      The only other tip I have so far is to walk through the whole process step-by-step ahead of time to make sure you've got a good idea what you're doing and to make sure you have all of the equipment that you'll need on hand. If you've made wine before you should have a pretty good grasp of the process already.

                                      Have fun!

                                          Making beer at home

                                          Rule #1: Your first batch won't be very good. 

                                          Step 2: Enjoy your crappy beer. after all, its still beer.

                                          C. Try again.

                                          If you can make it to a second batch, you will end up making some good beer.
