Can you explain why TOE will run away? I saw the screw that determine the toe angle, i dun know how to describe, but my feeling tell me TOE should be last longer than camber.

it shouldn't run at all unless you have suspension modification/repairs etc.
in fact, MOST alignment readings will never ever run including camber unless you hit some really deep/hard potholes, or car went into serious accident that involved the suspensions (or even chassis been pushed in etc)
Why run? because thanks to our moon like road surface and sub standard road.....road get repaved not even 6 months go dig a trench to lay cable then just do some half pass six patching job on the dug area end up after some times the patched area start to sink in and TADA you have a killer ditch that would ruin your car.
You try going to Port Klang area and try driving there with all the container trailer, guarantee your testicle also fall out from it's sack....even on highway you have some patched area that is done very lousy.
Is another reason why so many zig zag pro drivers are born here....cilok here cilok there to avoid pot holes and bumpy areas.
my best advice if want your alignment to last long best is to avoid hitting any potholes, dug area do slow down as much as possible. For my saga using adjustable I will avoid pot holes, badly patched surface at all cost. When come to a repatch trench. I will slow down to the slowest speed I can and just slowly drive pass it. I also prefer to drive over bump at low speed and not fly over them.....
For tire shop side, when you check your alignment please monitor the screen also so that you know whether its out or not. This can avoid the tire shop guy cheating you.
If you have the tools usually just 2 spanar, you can do your own alignment at home also. You just need a stretch of flat straight road. I did this when I change my suspension. I did it at home then only send to tire shop to check the figure if it's correct. but without machine you need to do a few times.
Here's a very good guide on DIY alignment
