IMO, ALL of the vehicles built today are "dull". Not only dull, but boring.
I can remember way back when, you could get a glimpse of a car and know exactly what it was. These days, you have to get up close and see the badge on most of them.
Of course, there are exceptions, there always are!
You obviousy haven't driven a 2008 and later BMW M3 Coupe? I certainly wouldn't call that a dull or boring car.
Most of the people crying and bashing Toyota aren't Toyota owners.
A newspaper recently ran a column-----" E-mail us about your Toyota" ( after they ran an article about the re-call)
There were 18 quick replies from Toyota owners in the area and every one of them were satisfied with their Toyota that was on the re-call list and said they would buy another.
The people who are most upset are non Toyota owners who actually are upset that Toyota owners aren't screaming mad and switching to their brand of car.
My 18-year old brother was driving my parent's Camry and went off the road. Once the tires got off the black-top on an Indiana country road, the car ended up in the ditch and had to get towed out. I believe that if he was driving a car with more feedback from the tires he would have had a better sense of where they were at on the road, and he might not have ended up in a ditch.
I think that's a story that relates to what the OP was talking about.
Which is it - "All of the vehicle built today are dull" or "there are exceptions"??
"These days, you have to get up close and see the badge on most of them.

There, does that make it more understandable?
Actually, there are ALWAYS exceptions to ANY generalization!
As in;
Generally speaking, all generalizations can be proven true, including this one!
However;
Generally speaking, all generalizations can be proven false, including this one AND the previous one!

Or could it have been at 18 yrs old, your brother didn't have enough experience to keep the car out of the ditch?
They are not honest with their customers, hiding major flaws for years then finally getting called on it, not good. I would rather push my Tahoe than drive a Toyota!
