Now the bull starts, and you are the one starting it. Did you know 70%
of Toyotas complaints for self acceleration don`t even cover the
recalled cars, that is from Toyotas own internal documents. And of
course you were with the lady when her occurance happened, so you Know
its bull for a fact.

Uh, you must be mistaken.
This fellow knows quite a bit about cars.
And his auto insights have shown the Toyota problem is really GM's
fault, along with Toyota owners who have lied before Congress.
I would go so far as to say he is the world's foremost expert.
And he has been kind enough to bring his Toyota insights to the tech
group to educate all of us who do mechanical work on cars.
I can't tell tell you how much we appreciate that.
