From: hls on 17 Apr 2010 19:41 Toyota doesnt even know you exist. You are less known that Mike Hunter, who is all but invisible.. Toyota has given me two cars that are smooth, economical, and troublefree. I took the Avalon in for recall service, even though there was NEVER a problem of any kind. If GM had behaved similarly, I would not have panned them so severely. My experience with Toyota is 100% favorable, and my experiences with GM are not favorable at all. Buy what you like.

He bought a Tercel thinking it was a Supra because of the trim package.

Sounds like you have a special relationship with Toyota. --Vic

A V8 got the power of a small six. So, this time, don't go into a dealer looking for a sporty car. It'll take them a few years to get the performance up after tweaking the economy. Oh, and expect the higher mileage cars to be made of cardboard. _______________________________________________________________________ That's because gasoline engines now get about all of the power they are going to get from a gallon of fuel, so the only remaining driver of fuel economy is vehicle weight. We will have smaller engines; not because they are more efficient, but because smaller engines have smaller weight. The 6-passenger car is dead, and the 4-passenger car will get narrower and shorter. The greater height-to width ratio will make them more susceptible to rollover accidents. Light-weight materials and components will guarantee that in a collision they will be pulverized. Good luck, Rodan. |
