Toyota is anything but a stand up company.

I just dont see how they have this better quality image. Ive never heard of another company to actually recall more cars than they sold in 1 year.

They should be kicking toyota so hard when they are down that they feel it in Japan. Toyota does it to GM all the time. Remember those trade in commercials Toyota used to run....always showed beat up GM cars and trucks.

Knowing they dominate the small car sales in the USA with our automotive companies already hurting they decide to release a full size v8 truck just to dick with our sales.
But then try to claim themselves as an american company.

Kick them GM. Then when they are down, pick up a prius and throw it on top of them. Then kick them again.

NO QUARTER!

They would do it to us.

GM fire your pansy half assed marketing team and bring in some real people. Hell I bet half your marketing team drives toyotas.

Actually GM in the mid 80's recalled an absolute shit ton because of those orange seat belt buttons that failed and the seatbelt kept popping out. It was definitely more than they sold in 1 year because half their cars had it since like 1982 or something
