The torx head was designed in the automotive industry to accomodate robotic assembly, period. Having said that, it's important to have the right tools for the job. When I first purchased my 850 years ago, I realized that if I were to do any work on the car I had to invest in a set of torx tools. So I did. Having said that, I replaced my thermostat years ago. Using the right tool, it was a piece of cake and had it done in less the half an hour.
