By contrast, spend some time looking over a Toyota, imagining how you'd
access various things for repair. They're brilliantly thought out.

Exactly - because you have to fix them all the time.

That's not engineering brilliance - that's common sense. :)

NOTE: For the record, we once owned a Volvo that was so over
engineered, to change the warning/signal flasher, you had to remove
the dashboard to get to it.

Fix them all the time??

you have got to be kidding me right... now I know you are just joking
around... talk to ANYONE with a Toyota and ask them how much they are fixing
them...
