Their results correlate nicely with the opinions of a ****load of Toyota
owners, plenty of mechanics, with my own experiences with the cars over 25
years, and most important, with the results of Consumer Reports studies.

Perhaps this is the real question: Based not on cynicism, but on your
thoughts about Toyota products, why do you feel the survey results are
tainted?

Doug, are you suggesting that JD Powers can not be bought for the highest
bidder? Gould is positive that all of JD Powers surveys are biased and
are
sold to the highest bidder, don't tell me that others agree with JD
Powers.

If only GM would buy off J.D. Power they too could dominate the Annual
Initial Quality Study. GM execs should be fired for being so stupid
as
to
ignore such a easy maneuver to improve quality.

Surprise winner? Sounds like JD Power got the same survey results as
Consumer Reports comes up with when it does its similar study. No
surprise.
American cars have been crap since the mid to late 1970s.
