    So what up man????? Get it yet and are you going to celebrate with a great local cellar temperature beer? Or two, or three. or four????

    People in the US drink beer cold because it sucks at room temperature.

    I have always washed my Gen3 in regular automatic car washes, never had an issue, also with the sensors.
    I cannot wash it by myself, BTW, because as far as I know it is illegal to wash cars privately (for sure is in Italy and likely also in Germany). Reason being, waste of water (automatic car wash recycle water and use a fraction of what one would use privately) and pollution (drains in garages and parking lots are meant for rain, not foam forming detergents).

    I've never had any problem with the parking sensors with an automatic car wash.

    Very unlikely. Toyota has offered Welcab models for decades now and none have ever made it over (except the one time they offered the 2nd gen with a raised rear suspension and fold-out ramp for a year or two). The welcab versions are more elegant (and there are motorized and non motorized versions) but would probably cost a lot. (I think modifying a minivan to have that ramp is pretty pricey but I don't have the numbers).
