  1. Need a little help here.... The black fiberglass looking thing that is attached under the front bumper and extends back to the front wheels on my 2007 ES350 broke (naturally while I was some 500 miles away from home) and is hanging down under the car.... I grabbed some good old Duct Tape and taped it up to the bumper to get it home. Now I'm looking for the parts online and I can't find them anywhere - - I suspect it is because I don't know the proper name for the part.... If anyone can tell me either the name of the part(s) or the part number - I'd be most appreciative... Thanks JJ
  2. Actually I was thinking that since Milwaukee is north - - it's probably all uphill (at least it looks uphill on my globe) - - then downhill to back to Raleigh.... JJ
  3. I've read a number of discussions about whether to burn Regular or Hi Test gas in the ES350..... Thought you might be interested in this week's test..... I drove from Raleigh, NC to Milwaukee and return this week - - 1000 miles each way - - got 31.4 miles to the gallon on the way up using regular (87 Octane) gas.... Cost @ $4.00 per gallon = $127.39.... On the return trip I burned Hi Test (93 Octane) gas... Same route.... Same speed (72 in a 65; 77 in a 70 zone).... Cruise on all the way.... Got 33.7 miles to the gallon on the way back using Hi Test (93 Octane) gas..... Cost @ 4.25 per gallon - $126.11 - - Therefore I actually saved $1.28 using Hi Test.... :P I've been burning Hi Test all along so I guess I'll stay with it now that I've run this real life test....
