The day I bought a Toyota... A day that will live in infamy!

I hope I'm not sounding too dramatic, but on that day Toyota decided that little cars were for dumb people and that nobody would care.

But history may never be the same after I got that little Tercel Hawk that turned out to be a camouflaged dove. Perhaps it made my hunting instincts go sharper until I became the famous lion hunter I am today.

Recent events with Toyota proves me right.

Toyota makes larger and powerful vehicles too. Dont blame them because you bought something you didnt research adequately.

I think you know what I have to say to this post, but it can be summed up in two words:

"Test Drive"

You should try it some time.

You also should have bought a Scion tC. No wing, no fancy graphics, but probably would have fit what you were looking for better.

Or, "Celica" might have done the trick, too.

The day that the US dropped its first atomic device as an act of war.... that is a day that will live in infamy... Pearl Harbour - that is a day that will live in infamy... JFK.... the space shuttles... the San Francisco earthquake of 1906... the Frank Slide....all days that will live in infamy....

For a day to "live in infamy" it has to rate a little more significant than the day that some snivelling little douchebag that bought a car based on it's purchase price...

Famous lion hunter? I think you give yourself a bit too much credit...

If you really feel so bad about it, buy a Mazda in penance: one made in Hiroshima, Japan.

Toyota makes a clear distinction between the monkeys and lions of the jungle. The former get mowing machines, the latter SUVs and Lexus.

Oh c'mon, you can't judge a long term relationship by a 10 minute quicky test.

Why won't someone tell me that Toyota is making quality little cars now, beyond the expectations of a church lady that couldn't care less about handling or fun coefficient.

I hunt famous lions like Toyota and that makes me famous too. Have you thought of corporations as hungry lions?

So these lions are metaphorical, but no less real... In this case Toyota will try to sell Toyotas until the end of times, without ever giving a chance to the monkeys that want to ride a bike and prevent climate change.

(They don't call me Indiana Banana for nothing)

THE LAW OF THE JUNGLE

Once upon a time, in the deep jungle, lived a Lion and a Monkey... One day the Monkey, tired of the Lion taking the LION'S SHARE, and seeing that such injustice represented a danger to all, demanded JUSTICE... The Lion, yawning and stretching, said, "You would have to have paws and sharp teeth..." Then the Monkey, who was very clever, devised a plan: He would go to the costume store, and look like a lion...

When the HUNGRY LION saw him, noticing that the new lion wasn't a match for him, and fearing COMPETITION, killed him on the spot -- before the indifferent look of the little animals of the jungle... And that's how the Law of the Jungle was re-established one more time... (NOTE: Other monkeys survived him...)

ANALYSIS: Violence on the part of the lion can only result in more monkeys joining the fight. And violence on the part of the monkey can only give an excuse to the lion... He should instead use NONVIOLENT RESISTANCE,* just as Mandela did in South Africa.

They are for depressed people. I rather ride a bike, even a donkey instead.
