Get ready for another round of rice pumping action as the toyoda Peeus is declared totally lame.

Truckin is feuding with Elton over the $70 plastech debacle, STD is upset and trying to get some action, Unbiased observer is an oxymoron, and the Sheeple is cowering under the sheets with a blow up Hitler doll.

So first we see bad transmissions, then broken tundra tailgates, followed by frame rot, sludge filled engines, paint issues and plastic weak body panels, not to mention 0% financing, tanking profits, and falling sales, now this. Peeus is declared totally lame.

Now is there really an adolph hitler blow up doll available? But, all kidding aside, as long as it gets real good gas mileage, I don't care if its "totally lame".

Now that I don’t really know. For all the weird things we have in today’s society, there’s no telling.

I happened to meet a young lady in a business suit complete with a briefcase and professional demeanor. When asked what her profession was, she stated she was the Regional Director for Larry Flints’ Boutique shops. Come to make a long story short, this was confirmed.

The Prius is junk. Looks like Chevy Volt will be much more advanced.

Toyota transmissions are prone to failure.

Very true, I agree 100%. All one needs to do is google “Toyota transmission problems.” You will quickly find many issues including 2008 vehicles with transmission problems.

There is a poster that goes by the name “Unbiased Observer” would someone please explain to her that Toyota executives actually admitted to producing the Camry when they indeed knew a problem existed with the tranny and they didn’t know what it was?

If true, thats very bad! Perhaps Toyota's success has created an atmosphere of arrogance at toyota.

Toyota is super arrogant, and so are many of their customers. Just look at some of the posts on these threads. They are so smug it’s enough to make you sick.

Say something bad about a Toyota and it’s- deny deny deny and then deny some more. Then follow it up with some GM problems, but GM this and GM lost…

Smug!
