So my time almost came to an end this morning... im very lucky to be alive.

First of all, GO HUG YOUR WIFE/HUBBY and tell them you love them.

i had an acetylene bottle in my truck, the valve was bumped so slightly and over night the truck filled with the gas. i noticed the smell, and opened the doors to air out the truck. i drove the truck out of the garage to get some more air movement. i went to roll the pass side window down and as soon as i touched the power windows. BAM. with me in the truck. i lost all hearing out of my right ear and got a scratch on the back of my head. all things considering, im alive.

so now ive got the question out to toyota about a 2012 TT. 125 to canada only, 15 in standard. i want a standard...

pictures tell 1000 words.

dont take any minutes or seconds you have for granted... it may be your last...

peace everyone

The pressure wave took the path of least resistance.  With the seats in there, it was out the glass and out the body.  It looks like the driver side door was open but there isn't much room for air to get out with all the seats up.

Probably should have just opened the garage then opened all the doors with the key.

Here's an older one, similar outcome.  http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2699669
