    The antennae seems to come unscrewed from wind or vibrations. I am sure I will lose it on the highway some day.

    yeah, whether i can fix or not, it "shouldn't" be my problem. this cant be a unique issue as other s are havign it as well, sooo, in testing and design, i am sure this issue was just "overlooked) as it can be fixed with twisting the hand

    The antenna issue is an easy fix...but if they want to fix it for me instead that would be great.

    I am loving this as I know Toyota is going to come out better and more profitable than ever.

    You have to shake things up every so often, and now is that time for Toyota. Buy now and watch for big gains on TM ;).

    its like anyone...american compaines go almost bankrupt and come back slightly better, the japs dont fail often, and when they do, they come back twice as hard ( im not talkin about wars to those fo you who were gonna go there) when it comes to technology, they do everything better, cars (mainline, italy obviously produces best cars, bikes, and private jets, and food) their work ethic (right or wrong) is a very strong disciplined one, being a world issue right now, means one thing, they will have to come back twice as hard. and i wouldn't doubt some prices reflect them trying to gian business, if prices are right, a newer model caould be a possiblity if the buyback on 07 is great enough and new one low enough, and features are a plenty

    a flaw in the gas pedal if it exists is not going to make a great vehicle bad all of a sudden. the part they use has a problem. its like sayin a smokin hot chick is no longer smokin hot cause she cant bend a certain way....plenty of american car comapnies, including honda, have acceleration issues. thats the point. anything made today is made so quick that nothign works right, houses fall apart within years of building yet 100 year old homne stand strong, 700+ years in italy building stand, older products were built with pride, even oler cars, now things are all crap and its all just a matter of time till a flaw is exposed. likethe firestone tire thing, somone knew, they just figured it was cheaper to settle then to fix. its the fiht club theory
