No. My Corolla is from 1988.

...i disassembled the factory radio in my 1990 geo prizm and soldered an auxilliary cable onto the pre-amplification stage traces; it worked pretty well suspending a portable CD player from the rearview mirror for shock protection back in the days before memory buffers were a thing, even better with those little vinyl bands installed around the disc edge for additional gyroscopic stability...

It was either a TV or a margherita machine, and I made the right choice

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

hi, i think you misspelled wrong

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I can watch TV on my phone, but it can't make me pizza. The margherita machine complements something I already have.

Funny, but I for one think that this place could do with more silly and fun questions to beat the boredom and / or break the ice for new users. It'll probably get more engagement than 5 or so hyper specific questions a day at least. But to answer your question, I didn't see the need for both a TV and an air hockey table.

Haha hell yeah, that's more like it. I've never played charades either though lol. So not sure how much help I'll be there.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

I do not. Pimp My Ride did not pick my 2006 Carolla and I never got to meet X to the Z Xzibit. Really set the tone for the rest of my life unfortunately.

Nope, no space with all the ketamine

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm sorry but ketamine can only be stashed in a 2001 Honda Civic

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Sold the Civic, I did. Marked vehicle, it was. Hmmm

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

I have neither a Toyota nor a TV.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago

Like... In the back like I just picked it up from the side of the street to take it home and plug it in and see if it works?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Why would I install a 32 inch TV on a 2006 Toyota Corolla?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No. Because I have a 1997 Toyota Tercel.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

My first car was an '86 Tercel, epic vehicle.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Oh I remember my dad's Toyota having them in the seat headrests. The screens were pretty crappy since the connection was over composite

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

I have an aftermarket double din headunit running windows ce. I beleive it does have a tv tuner as well as dvd/gps/usb/micro sd card. I didn't hook up the brake switch so you could watch movies while driving if you wanted. I only use it for bluetooth and backup camera.

I had a TV as part of my ‘06 BMWs iDrive…

…it was absolute crap at the best of times, it and would only work when in Park for safety reasons (obviously).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

I read that as “only worked in parks” and was very confused

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

If by TV you mean Total Vibe then well actually yes

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

In the mid 2000s I had a little TV with a PlayStation 2 console, but going over bumps scratched the games so I took it all out. It was fun for a while.
