Once in a while you get over on the dealer

I'm not driving much at all b/c of medical treatments so the wife decided this would be a good time to get "caught up" on the recall notices for my 2008 Rav4. One of the recalls involved the exhaust system, and it worked out that they had to install a new exhaust system - pipes, muffler ( ...
