Not to mention we are far from the end of Subprime crisis, and WSJ, Bloomberg, even the Economist have said 1-2 MAJOR banks are going to fail due to this mess.

We all know that despite ethanol causing some of this, they will continue to build ethanol plants, just like the one their building not too far from here. We all know that whichever person we choose to vote for, it's just gonna be another loony, pre-picked politician that will continue to run the country the way they seem fit, not us. Taxes are going to continue to rise considerably, if they weren't high enough. People are going to continue to be unemployed and fired. Sorry, but that's the truth.

In the grand scheme of things do the trials and tribulations of the North American market matter nearly as much as they used to? The emerging markets aren't just emerging anymore- they're taking over. Tata gobbles up Jag and land Rover, Hummer will more than likely end up offshore and even the Viper could end up in the hands of...well, who knows. Like it or not kids, we just aren't the centre of attention anymore. Is it the worst thing in the world? Anyone who's seen their job disappear will think so. Will North America bounce back? Of course it will, but it will take time and the landscape will look very much different when that day comes. You know what?

On topic though: Toyota are reliable cars and fuel efficient, the Carolla is the worlds number one selling car..but there will never be one parked in my garage, thats for sure. I agree with Patriot, its going to take a LONG time to whipe out Toyota, especially because they own Lexus.. The only Toyota I like is the Sequoia, thats because it doesnt look stupid like the Yaris.. I really do NOT think that the Volt is going to change anything at all..it wont last..

I don't think Toyota will be undercut from any of the established American companies, but rather from start-ups like Tesla motors. My big concern is Toyota buying those start-ups. It should be illegal for foreign business to buy domestic businesses tbh. It took Toyota a long time to get to where it is now, and it will take an even longer time to put them out of business.

When the Volt comes out, it'll be the final blow to your profits and sales in this Country. Everyone would rather buy their vehicles from GM and the Volt will steal every last one of your remaining customers. Might as well close up shop now and be done with it.
