This is why Toyota is #1

My Sequoia is one year old today and Toyota sent me a Birthday card!  This is an example of the (usually lots of small) differences that set great companies apart from merely competent ones. I know that this is just marketing, but for the few cents it cost them, why don’t ALL companies do this?

“Please call us if there is ever anything we can do” - Lovely!

Does your car company do this?  Your camera company?  Your TV company?  Yeah……riiighhht! :-)

Yaris Sedan - a sensible cutie-pie!

The Toyota Yaris sedan - ain’t she the prettiest little thing you’ve seen? Powered by a peppy 1.5 liter VVT-i four cylinder engine with a choice of manual or four-speed automatic gearboxes.  With the current proce of gas, a lot of us will be taking a long, hard look at cars in this segment over the next few years.   Toyota cars are renowned for their build quality and longevity. Many Echos (the Yaris precursor) have well over 150,000 miles on them (go take a look in EBay Motors) and still going strong.  HIGHLY recommended.
