of course toyota is being picked on right now... we have been on top for a long while, and the camry started selling more than the F-150...

back when the ford/firestone crap came up, they were on top... and did we really hear about any other manufacturer doing any recalls then? nope...


this will all eventually blow over, and toyota will still be on top... there was also a blurb on the national news this morning that the "unintended acceleration" issue was affecting other manufacturers... then they switched straight to a toyota dealer saying "nobody wants to buy these cars..." but they are selling pretty well regardless...

true, but it does get on my nerves...like today, i went in for the Yaris recall, for the foam padding that could ignite flames..tech said my car was not part of that, even though it is a 2007 model, which took that recall list~

And while all this was going on, some random customer comes up to me and says, "so even your little hatchback was effected by the gas pedal recall?, shows how cheap Toyota has become.." I told him no, my car's fine, and i think most of the cars are, it's just dumb driver's who shouldn't be driving at fault...
Guy got mad and walked off~
