More proof that Consumer Reports is a useless rag.

That seems a bit harsh. I've always thought their car reviews were
pretty good in fact. They've always been a big fan of Toyotas and so
am I. If CR didn't like a lot of what Detroit was producing, that's
just a reflection of their accuracy and perceptiveness in my opinion.


They myth of the Toyota has been blown up in recent years.


We had no problem with our 4Runner, and the Highlander has yet to have anything done to it other
than maintenance. I'd buy them again. My wife's thinking of a RAV4 for her next 'girlie car'.

CR's been giving some of the Buicks pretty high marks, and, of course, Chrysler continues to suck
hind teat.

As usual, you'd be wrong.

Absolutely no doubt about that!

Have you noticed yourself following Harry around to pat him on the back for his personal attacks?

Are you sure that's the point you were trying to make?

No.....but I've noticed your endless trolling trying to agitate and get a response out of Harry.
What's up with that?

Yes, it is. Notice if you will, the list for U.S. cars includes 2
Chrysler models.

What "myth"?

---------------------------------------------

The only serious issue and controversy surrounding Toyota in recent
years was a problem they had with certain pickups, mostly sold and
used in the northeast. There was a design flaw that resulted in
premature rotting of a cross member in the frame. Initially Toyota
screwed up by denying there was a problem but ultimately they stepped
up to the plate and replaced the affected frame sections on *all* the
trucks, even if well out of warranty. In some cases, they actually
bought the truck back and gave the owner a new one.

I have a friend who had one of the affected trucks. He liked it a lot
but due to his experiences in getting it fixed, he bought a Ford F-150
instead.
