This statement always bothers me as Toyota hasn't had that great of quality for the last 10 years or so. They've been turning out subpar work since the late 90's and using there rreputation that the ybuilt in the 70's and 80's to sell them. GM has been making great vehicles since the mid 90's, but to many people are still hung up on the 70's and 80's and some of the complete SH!T they turned out then. I work on cars out of my house, and TOZYOTA's are one I will not normally touch. Not because of morals, but because they end up costing me more to work on than I will make it in warranty repairs later on. Most all of teh imports are becoming this way for me at least. DODGE still needs to bring up there interior quality, but otherwise are also pretty good now as well. It just burns me when I hear peopel say how great the imports are, and then they continue to say how great they are even when they need thousands of dollars worth the repoairs when there are domestic vehicles running longer with less than half the repairs in many cases. As for the imports being assembled here and the domestic vehicles beig assembled elsewhere, we have nobody to blame but ourselves and the unions for this.
