Gauge Console
Car question...?
We have a 1998 Chevy Lumina and the dashboard lights don't work very well at all. At night, I can't see my speedometer, gas gauge, or anything else above my steering wheel. Also the console or whatever it's called isn't lit up either--my radio dials, heat/AC controls aren't visible at night. It seems that the lights are dying out gradually, b/c I could see a little better a few days ago. Is there any way for my husband to fix this himself, or do we need to take it into a shop? I think it's a bit unsafe to not be able to see the gas gauge or speedometer. Any suggestions?
No, that's a legit question lol....but yes, we have the switch turned up as far as it will go without having the interior light on in the car.
It sounds as if you have a ground problem. Sometimes corrosion causes the lights to loose more and more power, until they just go out. It would be best to take it to a qualified tech and have him check it out.
But first have your husband check under the hood for loose or corroded ground straps, going to the body from the engine.

Another impressive reorganization by Toyota this year was the new 2006 Toyota Tacoma. This truck is synthesized from a small to mid-sized pickup. You are familiar with the Tacoma-ies of the past. They are reliable, as a day long ago, but how will the new truck compare?
I went shopping, and, frankly, I had to check at the border of Nissan, too. It was amended, and is approximately the same size as the new Tacoma. As Nissan has a rail system in the truck bed, but Toyota is on the edge of the deck up above. I like it better, it seems as if it would make binding of items much easier. In addition, in bed, there are two neat lockable storage compartments nestled so they are not noticed. Pretty slick.
The new V6 has 236hp, which does not slouch in any book. The old V6 had about 190 hp I think so. A standard 4-cylinder is 2.7 liters and 164 hp rates are more than most V6's.
There are X-Runner is available, which is more for show and go, than off-road or work. My father was in the previous version, which was S-Runner http://www.autoglass-america.com Tacoma . They are slick. Dad in a way cool, and I saw only one X-Runner at a car show, as they are sold before they are around for much too long. A sensor, which can have a .9 G's on the slip area will rival most sports cars. Basically, the X-runner has everything. In Prerunner and double cab is the top of the line for trucks 4x4, but they have many options. The only option I can find on the X-runner is daytime running lights.
Do not worry, the SR5 still comes loaded up with chrome grille, color bumpers, overfenders, leather steering wheel, and variable Wipers windscreen. In the V6 has fog lamps and a sports package includes a limited-slip rear differential. In off-road package adds larger wheels, a suspension with BILSTEIN shocks, locking rear differential and the slip plates and tow hooks.
In TRD Sport truck my favorite with a hood scoop, 17 "wheels, better seats, sockets and neat overhead console with compass and temperature gauge.
In the Tacoma is not a small truck you see around anymore. My dad was 4. I only owned one truck, Toyota, and I drove until the wheels fell. But you know what? She started and ran every time. I am sure that the trucks we see today a lot of last another generation due to Toyota in unsurpassed quality.
