Now have two Toyota’s due to poorly built Jeep Cherokee. Toyota’s have only needed oil changes.

Advertised battery life on airtags about one year.

Learned how the Lemon Law worked with our 2014 Trailhawk. So many problems never had time to address the transmission. Replaced it with a 4runner. The 4runner has had zero problems.

Imagine New buyers seeking mandatory insurance due to payments. Dealers typically mention insurance is mandatory. They have never checked me for insurance on New purchase before leaving the dealer. Buyers now stuck with some high rate insurance willing to risk it. The Seattle area has a high Kia/Hyundai theft rate.…

With your luck consider buying Lotto tickets. 

Still crap thru 2022. Easily stolen via the Tiktok challenge. I know of two different people that bought Kia/Hyundai for their kids. Both were around 2014/2015 model years. Airbags failed to deploy. Separate incidents. Supposedly 2023 and up immune to the Tiktok challenge. Why bother when Toyota and Honda are better? T…

Check for prepayment penalty. We financed for some deal only available with dealer financing. Then two weeks later refinanced with my Credit Union for significant savings. Prepayment penalty would have soured the numbers. 

If the undercarriage has zero rust NP. This is priced right. Toyota charged extra for the single color Teams package paint. Despite being cheaper to paint than non Teams FJ's. 

No idea Buick still in business until this list. 

My local Honda dealer has had near zero inventory for some time. 

Hoovies Garage just posted his F150 Lightning range problems. His truck has about half the manufacturer rated range with Temps in the 30's F. Alberta Temps seems to be negative to low single degrees Fahrenheit in Winter. Let the US government waste their money before trusting one to keep your child safe.

Yellowstone Temps are about 10deg F colder than Kansas. Hoovies Garage posted a video on his F150 Lightning range today. About half the manufacturer ratings with low 30's F. Yellowstone Temps would likely place more burden on the battery. Lightning might make sense in areas with moderate Temps for the Forest Service.…

F150 Lightning sounds fine for management and paper pushers. Range anxiety when traveling far from charging locations seems short sighted. Forest Service offices are not always located where Level 2 charging and above would be available.

1st Gear -  will not make any difference banning or price capping Russian Oil. China and India have no problem using Russian oil. Some countries are rumored to play a shell game with Russian oil allowing it to be sold to anyone.  

Toyota not perfect. They had Camry oil consumption problems. Tacoma frame rust issues. My daily is a 5th generation 4runner.  

Toyota Highlander. Reliable. 3 rows. Optional hybrid.

Luxury car market more likely linked to Fed rate. Fed trying to reduce excess money. Seems to be working. Many smart people think some sort of Recession nearly guaranteed. 

How long until Samcrac buys one at auction? 

Corrola Hatchback.
