At least our flaws don't cause fires, sudden acceleration, or leave you stranded on the side of the road. :rolleyes:

3 of those 4 can do just that. LCM died on me at night on the way from work, on the rural roads, had to pull over. Axles and shooting a plug out of the head speak for themselves. Again, it's not like Toyota is making flawless products, but at least they got a kick in the rear.

My Marauder does too!

But mine is always intended sudden acceleration.

BTW: I always found it humorous when they used the words "sudden acceleration" and "Toyota" in the same sentence.....:rolleyes:
1.7 Million recalled.....Turdyota gets another black eye!

They used to hide thier recalls in TSB's, since they got caught and spanked they have to actually call a recall. Not 'Technical Service Bulletin # 679: Pressing the gas and the brake at the same time will cause flames to drip from the headliner, recommend not doing that and maybe you should bring your vehiclke in for a courtesy check. But remember, this is not a recall.'

It's not so much miles, but age. Age is the bigger enemy. Just ask my ex.

Toyota's are overrated.

Turdyota!! I use the same expression when customers ask for my opinion on what to buy next, I love when Turdyota owners are around and they hear it, the look on their faces is priceless. :D

Yep!
Turdyota owners are so brainwashed...or just plain oblivious, that they are startled when someone actually states that they own a POS.
They are so used to talking down to FORD owners....
I love to remind them of Toyota's never ending recalls and that FORD is now rated way higher than their Turdyota for quality and owner satisfaction!

Don't forget higher resale value too. Not to mention lower cost of ownership due to lower repair, maintenance, and insurance costs.
