 Your opinions on current Toyota woes--fallout good for Detroit


It is hard in any company to be sure that all people are properly hooked to the cart to keep it headed in one direction!

It is unfortunate and chances are there will be another, this is not their first mistake but they certainly haven't had the issues in the past of the american car companies.

At the time of Toyota reliability they were not overloaded with options to fail like there american counterparts. They were good performing reliable base cars.

We did just buy our first american(named) car for personal use that we have owned in a while. This is the first time I've personally owned one for over forty years. I can only hope that it can be as reliable and as good of a value as the previous cars we were driving. We do use ttheir trucks in the company and we have seen relatively good service other then the diesels seem to have a lot of electrical issues.

I still have issues with the wages in detroit and as to where the values might be, I would not buy from a bailed out company as I believe they should have just failed, thats capitalism! That also includes the banks and investment firms.

I might sound hard here but when trying to expand our business the government has not been a good partner or anyone we could count on other then to be taxed more and require us to have more people just to make sure we are compliant with regulations for them.
