I never watch ''those'' tv shows. The Great Scout & Cathouse Thursday is on the Western channel right now. Speaking Irish,,,, What did he say? What did he say? What did he say? cuhulin
You can see it here:
The Toyotathon of Death... that was a hoot...
here:
Talk about a turnaround for Toyota "perceptions"..... Hard to believe. And I get no joy from it. Sort of saddens me. OTOH, no corporation gets my sympathy either. More saddened for the owners who have "faith." They might abandon Toyota for Ford or GM, and come to even deeper tragedy. Of course, it's all overblown - unless it happens to you.

Now it is Prius brake pedal problems.
Toyota reportedly receiving complaints over Prius brakes After accelerator recall, the other pedal is now causing problems
Vic Smith wrote in news: snipped-for-privacy@4ax.com:
I'll bet you love governments, though.
There have been exactly twelve (12) actual confirmed incidents of stuck gas pedals on Toyotas since October. Worldwide. Over 2.3 million vehicles.
That's 0.00052%, if you've not bothered to do the math yourself.
And if you're that concerned about runaway cars, why don't you attack Ford too? They currently account for 28% of all unintended acceleration incidents.
You lost your bet. What was the wager?

No, the shoe is one your Dodge.. A disc is on the other foot.
Holding a button down for about four seconds to stop a runaway Toyota.Sheesh, I don't know,,, How Ludicrous (if that is a fair word/term to use?) does it get? I don't ever want to own any kind of so-called modern technology vehicle with that troublesome computerized fly by wire stuff.Aints ah ever gonna happen with me.Never! cuhulin
here:
Not me. I always buy "J" VIN Toyotas...
I like cars.
I like Toyotas.
I like electronics.
I like gadgets.
I like computers.
I DON'T like the idea of a car being CONTROLLED by electronics, gadgets, or computers.
In aircraft, they are tested, retested, and the tests are tested, and then the electronics are tested again, and the backup electronics for the electronics are tested, and the backups for the backups are tested.
Still don't really like it.
I like all of those things too.Aircraft fly by wire are different though.Even small Aircraft piston engines have two spark plugs for each cylinder and other redundacy.Last night on the How It's Made tv program I watched how those Aircraft engines are made. cuhulin
My opinion of Toyota hasn't changed at all as a result of all this. I've always thought they were disposable junk.
:D
There's a way to stop that...
