I have had three acquaintances have Tacoma frame failures, my mother in laws 2009 Avalon is a shoddily assembled, extremely boring car, and one of my customers 2011 Corolla has had brake and water pump issues at only 30k miles. My GM and Chrysler produced daily drivers have been superb. I have no reason to switch over. Toyota produces absolutely nothing that I gotta have.



We need keep the bad news about Toyota and Honda secret. There are so many right now trying very hard to convince themselves to buy a Japanese vehicle.
I feel the same way. And no one manufacturer makes everything good, while another does everything "bad". Sometimes the difference between a lemon and a trouble free car can be as simple as what engine/transmission you choose. Unfortunantly, I am done buying "new" anyways. Everyone's getting ready to go off the deep end (or already have) with the turbocharged/direct injection/small dispalcement/ countinuosly variable (lawnmower) style transmission, with heated seats and 99 cup holders, as well as an electronic touch screen to control everything. No one has ever had any problem with cell phones and other "touch pad" devices LOL.
