So, now that we are a year past the great Toyota Driving Scare, how do we make right for a company legally doing business in our country the damage inflicted on it by an Executive Branch and media run amok? Nasa, recently concluded their investigation into Toyota’s breaking system, and found nothing wrong with either the design nor construction of Toyota automobiles. There were a lot of us, listening to those frantic 911 calls of people suddenly careening down highways, that said immediately, this sounds fishy. Those cars come without neutral, ignitions, emergency breaks, or drivers with working grey matter? Our national media, which enjoys creating crises in order to have something sensational to report was having a blast. Toyota executives were hauled in front of Congress and subsequently fined $33 Million. It should be pointed out, that Toyota, a foreign company, employs 200,000 Americans. Toyota provides those Americans with good wages, benefits including health care, retirement plans, vision, dental, and pre-paid legal. Where does Toyota go to get back her well deserved and wrongly appropriated $33 Million? Where does Toyota go to get her good will back. For well over a year, Toyota’s reputation has been dragged through the mud, which by the way cost the car company 2% of the American market share.
Putting aside for the moment the fact that the Executive Branch had and still has a huge conflict of interest in terms of its witch hunt regarding any car company. (The Federal Government is now the principal share holder in Toyota’s competitors, Chrysler and GM.) Is this what Barak Obama means when he claimed to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, which by the way claims Toyota as a member, that we are creating the best place in the world to run a business? What will be the cost for Americans if we continue to beat up on the 18 other car companies doing business in America which are not Chrysler or GM? We will continue to subsidize those two companies to build cars which nobody wants to drive. We will cost the productive employees their jobs and rob them of their ability to earn a living. We will force many Americans to pay the inflated costs of cars they don’t want, either through direct purchase price or through tax subsidy. Most egregious of all, we run the very real risk of other companies who wish to do business with us opting not to do so. Toyota and BP are the two greatest examples of foreign companies who have faced the wrath of the Obama Executive Branch. How do you thing our economy will fare should they take their toys and go home? This reckless regulation from the hip is robbing wealth from all of us as well. We need to make a change in November of 2012. This President needs to be fired, before his assault on the free market system becomes successful.

Where did you get that photo of Ludwigged working on his Prius?
Well, I own a Toyota (Scion xD), and will NEVER, EVER buy a GM or Chrysler again.
That’s about all that I can do.
I’m actually in the market within the year for a heavy-duty diesel pick-up, and would consider a Toyota if they manufactured one.
It seems I’m getting a Ford, the only American brand I respect anymore.
I do not like foreign cars.
Toyota needs thier money back.
How many times has this happened?
This was a calculated effort to discredit a formidable competitor. One who does not kowtow to the unions. Now who would that concern? Hmmmm?
Toyota is Government Motors #1 competitor, you can bet the UAW has a friend in the White House and an axe to grind.
If I were Toyota I would consider pulling out and taking my business to a friendlier neighborhood.

Toyota Tundra, this vehicle was featured on the British version of Top Gear. The spent the show torturing that poor truck including setting it on top of a 27 story building that was demolished. The show ended with the truck being driven away.
@ Flyovercountry:
I’m sure it’s a fine truck, but for longevity as far as lots of towing goes, there’s no comparison between a gas and diesel engine.
I’ve seen this firsthand. While the gas engine initially handles the loads well, it wears at probably twice the pace.
If I were buying a truck for strictly personal use, I’d strongly consider a top-end Tundra, but it seems that no one outside of the big three wanna manufacture a heavy-duty diesel.
Maybe something to do with contracts and diesel engine manufacturing(ers).

Also there’s a flawed but strong perception among most heavy industries that it’s unacceptable to drive a non-American brand vehicle regardless of where it’s made.
Case in point, I would take a whole bunch of sh*t for driving a foreign truck. More than I’m willing to put up with currently.
My Dad made his bones as a supplier to the local steel industry. While he thinks the way we do, he wouldn’t be caught dead driving a non-American vehicle because it would cost him sales.
That’s just the way it is…
I knew all along that it was the floor mats, ignorant drivers, stupid drivers, or people looking to cash in. i knew it because way back in the stone age when i was young, i drove a 1974 toyota corolla in which the mats would regularly get stuck up under the gas pedal. the solution was to reach down, grab the mat, and pull it away. it was that simple. i drove an ’81 honda civic that did the same thing and the solution was just as simple. i drove a 1987 vw cabriolet that did it only once. after that, the 1995 mustang and now the 2010 edge have this handy little hooks which prevent it. i have been wondering if these people let their floor mats remain unhooked.

Can’t wait to see how he tries to backtrack when the shit really hits the fan over there. He is truly a crisis-creating POS.
@ NoThreat2U:
CASH OR CHECK ONLY!
Yeah, if you walk out of that place hungry, it’s your own damn fault.
@ Bumr50:
Toyota makes some excellent Diesel engines for the market outside North America, but even the Land Cruiser, which traditionally had a Diesel option, is available only with gasoline power in North America, at least as far as I know.
I agree they are missing the boat on that.
@ mfhorn:

FWIW, that attitude used to prevail in the Canadian oilpatch, too, but it’s fast going the way of the dodo. Now you see Toyota Tundras and Nissan Titans quite frequently on the lease. They are still outnumbered by any of the Big 3, but they are no longer freaks of nature. I dare say if Toyota put a good 6-cylinder Diesel in the Tundra, they’d sell a boatload of ‘em. I’d consider one, myself.
BTW, how are you faring after the wreck in NoDak?
@ Alberta Oil Peon:
I think there is some kind of trade deal to keep them out.
@ NoThreat2U:
It’s a fun place. Made the top places in the world to pig out on Travel Channel (I think) a few years ago. Tour busses stop in pretty regularly. The one I’ve been to, in Ozark MO, near Springfield, is busy, but the line moves pretty fast.

@ RIX:
Spin spin spin spin …… They have their heads so far up his ass, they don’t know what else to do.
@ mfhorn:
Made it onto Travel Channel? I can believe that. That is just the kind of places they look for on there.

i’m sorry to hear you’re still hurting but it sure sounds like you’ll be alright in time and i’m glad for that!
@ Kirly:
Agreed. People are stupid. Always looking to blame someone else for their stupidity. Reminds me of the hot coffee in the crotch issue. lol

If you watch Fox News for an hour, you’ll see a dozen ads for law firms that do nothing but sue companies over stupid shit.
I love the ads from law firms trying to solicit plaintiffs to sue drug companies.
How much do you want to bet the same people are bitching every time they go to get a prescription filled about the cost of drugs?
@ lobo91:
yeah, i know some of those people. idiots.
