    The things required to pull bitches
    I'm starting to think that all these recalls are a conspiracy, The American auto industries probably are doing something to make these problems become recalls, because they can't stand seeing a Japanese auto Industry being number 1 in the U.S.

    But that's just me...

    I know it sounds like bunk but we really are in a 'global market' there are very few if any cars that are really made by any one manufacturer and especially in any one country. Look at our trucks - Germany, Detroit, Japan, Mexico, etc. I am sure that the Toyota's are saying - I knew we should have never lost control and let the f__cking Americans force their garbage down our throats - we would have never gotten to this point.... oooops - I fell off my soapbox, but I think you get the idea!

    i personally think most of the problems Toyota and Honda have had are vehicles coming from the USA factories, Toyota builds more vehicles in the US than any other manufacture i believe(Saw that on yahoo news) so buying Toyota i feel i would support real working blue collar working Americans so F gm and ford who sold all there Detroit plants and went to Mexico for cheaper labor and shit cars, ill buy another Toyota in a heartbeat! Every manufacturer has issues, ford told there customers of like 7 million cars not to park them in the garage b/c they could catch on fire by there selves and burn the house down.... sounds more dangerous than a sticking pedal atleast u can turn your car or truck off to fix that!!!!!
