Apparently not all Scion owners are pleased with Toyotas 'Box car.'
There are lot of them sitting on used car lots and the used car lots of
other brand dealers. We hear that Toyota owners buy Toyotas because they
believe they will last longer, thus they keep their cars longer, much like
one would 'keep' a refrigerator. When one considers how short a time Scions
have been on the market, in the US and how few they sell, it seems odd to
see so many on used lots already. Curious ;)

Mike doesn't like to be confused with facts, like the graphic showing the GM
red line heading south for the past 27 years, and the two other Michigan
mfrs barely holding their head above water.

Toyota has the highest buyer loyalty, that is, the highest percent of people
who own a brand of vehicle who buy another one. Toyota also had the highest
buyer loyalty for midsized SUV (Lexus), Compact Pickup (Tacoma), prestige
luxary car (LS 430) and midsize car (Camry).

And, just because a Toyota is sitting on a Ford used car lot doesn't mean
that the Toyota was traded in for a Ford dealer. Used cars are often bought
wholesale and sold to dealers for resale.
