Toyota has always built better cars than the rest of the pack & is still a high quality manufacturer. Look at how long the US majors foisted their POS vehicles on the American public. |

Why not put those words into the Toyota logo itself ? It looks like a Venn diagram.

The car in front is a Toyota.
Thank your lucky stars the car behind you isn't. I agree with your assessment kcvt. In the long run, the biggest impact on road safety from Toyota's hubristic failure to address this quality problem will be the fact that it gives GM and Ford a chance to come off the ropes and continue pumping out their POS vehicles for longer than would otherwise have been the case. (Chrysler OTOH is dead doo doo regardless of the "breathing room" that Toyota has afforded other manufacturers). Oh ... and I predict that Hondas will hold an advantage in resale values for the next decade or so. |

Meanwhile, the company is said to be considering a recall of its Asimo robots after several of the units were found to be dating the wives of Honda executives. http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/w...mo-robot-1.jpg |

Doesn't sound too different from the US. When I come home now after a trip I often am amazed at how shabby every thing looks compared to China or where ever.
Although we still look better than Argentina. |

FWIW, this is only my opinion of the handling of the issue.

Ah yes, where the term, "second house" takes on an altogether different meaning.
These guys need to learn not to buy when they can simply lease.

But it appears the scandal gets worse.... http://i714.photobucket.com/albums/w...age/asimo4.jpg :eek: |
Yes, it is, but for different reasons. When the Eurasian Plate and the North American Plate collide and form a supercontinent, Japan will have lost its singular identity. By that time, Japan's economy and the trials and tribulations of Toyota will have become trivial, mere blips, probably much smaller, on the scale of geologic time.

Which reminds me of a page in one of the "not the nine o'clock news" calendars which pointed out that "End of World in 13.7billion years" (due to the sun going supernova) was the most boring newspaper headline ever.
