Anonymous Coward User ID: 869974 United States 01/21/2010 10:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Floormat my azz. They're running fireballs! The recall affects the 2009-2010 RAV4, the 2009-2010 Corolla, the 2009-2010 Matrix, the 2005-2010 Avalon, the 2007-2010 Camry, the 2010 Highlander, the 2007-2010 Tundra and the 2008-2010 Sequoia. The latest move comes just months after Toyota Motor Corp. recalled 4.2 million vehicles over concerns that accelerator pedals could become lodged under floor mats, causing sudden acceleration. That problem was blamed for several crashes, including an accident involving a Lexus that accelerated to more than 120 mph before crashing in San Diego, killing four people. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 705796I would never buy shitty American cars that are designed to be replaced after 10 years. Planned Obsolescence -- worst idea ever. You are full of shit. All engines require maintenance at some point. Quit it with your bullshit and tell it like it is. There is not a sparkplug designed today (for instance) that can go that long. Your car HAS BEEN in the shop asshole! Because I am sure you didn't know how to change it yourself! |

Better technology equals better mileage, performance and handling. Your, sir, are an idiot and don't deserve to live in this great country. |

I've only owned two japanese vehicles, and I was NOT IMPRESSED at all. Tiny, cramped, and built like tin cans. Lately I have a MAJOR political thing against GM for killing Olds and Pontiac. I'll never buy another one. Good riddence if they go under too! FORD all the way! |

At least you are buying products made by a US firm. I also agree with your assessment on the foreign cars...they still are tinny and UNDERPOWERED! I test drove an Avalon...just to see what I was supposedly missing. It was a DOG! Slow, unresponsive, and UGLY! I know my shit about mechanics, and this was NOT a car that I would put in my garage! |
GM Forever (OP) User ID: 864716 United States 01/21/2010 11:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Stupid Toyota owners...just keep buying foreign because some mouthpiece in MSM says they are better. Just wait and see what kind of economy we have left. This has been the "Fleecing of America" by those who wish to destroy it and you foreign car owners who can't think for yourselves LET IT HAPPEN!!! Take a class on mechanics for pete's sake! Foreign car owners = SHEEP and have helped to GIVE this country away. America was great...now I have NOTHING left to give my children. Fuckheads!!!!! |
