News, Toyota Aims to Be No. 1 in 2008 Vehicle Sales.
NAGOYA, Japan — Toyota said Tuesday that it planned to sell 9.85 million vehicles worldwide in 2008, setting an ambitious target despite worries about a slowing car market in the United States.

Unfortunately, John . . . due to QUANTITY, Toyota's QUALITY has been slipping.
I read an article recently where they were #1 in recalls for 2007. NOT GOOD! |

That is true. Toyota is trying to sell cars so fast, they can't make their cars acceptable. Pretty soon, Toyota may end up being like GM, Ford, and Dodge, NOT WORTH CRAP!!!!!! Then Honda would rule the world forever and ever.  |

I have to agree with the above poster, Hondas will probably will the world forever. It was redesigned again for 2008 and I think it looks nice. But for now, Toyotas rule in my neighborhood, 1 out of 5 cars I see drive by are Camrys.

Several models of GM and Ford cars are already at or near the top of being well-built. So, Toyota may end up being below those cars. |
