Toyota wanted to be GM so bad that they're heading down the same path to bankruptcy.

Party at my house when it happens.
I'll come down for that! Road trip!

Here's to watching TOYota fall really hard, face-first, into a big pile of their own automotive CRAP!

I think I'll make a new commercial:

Bulbous, uninspiring, non-impressive Toyota Camry?
$25,600

Gas-guzzling, tailgate-dropping, piss-poor excuse for a truck, Toyota Tundra?
$27,200

Learning that the Prius has a greater net environmental impact than a lifetime of fueling a Hummer?
$1.50

Watching Toyota get pummeled by lawsuit after lawsuit and witnessing a drop in sales due to poor product?

Priceless.
There are some cars that money shouldn't buy. For everything else, there's General Motors.

The CASH FOR CLUNKERS program was a successful bailout for Honda and Toyota, IMO.
