I don't know what is worse, runaway Toyotas or drivers that don't have the sense to turn off the ignition, or take it out of gear. :eyeroll:

I found this quote from a Toyota spokesperson interesting:
"I think it's possible to get the shifter confused, but I can't be sure that's what happened" in San Diego, Lyons said. "You'd be surprised how many people around here [Toyota] don't know what the neutral position is for."

People that work for Toyota, an auto manufacturer, don't know what neutral is? WTF?

was watching fox news this AM, they had a report about frame rust
on the toyotas. evidently it is a MAJOR problem and they are trying to get the FEDs to go after them for it.
i can tell you the photos they were showing of the trucks was something i havent seen since the cars here in the 70s when the manufacturers were using the reclaimed japanese steel
