Yep. Since 1974, we've been driving them at our house. But then we knew Toyota was doing something right, when I started getting cussed out at work years ago for driving one of them 'Furrin' cars. (And then they had the unmitigated gall to tell me VW was an AMERICAN car?)

Agreed. It's nice to see that some journalist are past the bigotry and emnity towards a manufacturer who is only trying to do things the proper way. I supposed it's to be expected that there will always be those that try to beat you when you're the best. No better way to paint a bull's eye on your back.

Yup - it's too bad people can't just admire rather than despise you when you're at the top.

LOL - it's a sickness. We English language nerds are very compulsive. I have to really hold back with some of the stuff I see on message boards - I don't mean typos, I mean really sad grammar and typing.

:-) I only mentioned it, because I saw somebody on here correct someone else two weeks ago for spelling pedantic "peNdantic"--a tendency to want to wear pendants, I suppose. :)
The humorous thread was "where are cars manufactured."

Itd be funny to see how many ford trucks could stand the beating Top Gear gave the hilux pickup and still drive away.

No need for an apology. I was just joking around with you there. My office manager was an English major. She always corrects my typos too. She's a great manager though so I'll guess I'll keep her around. Besides, that skill comes in handy too. I have her proof read all of our documents. Say...are you looking for a job?
