"Maybe you should buy a better brand of car"
These are your words on comment 11:23 that I was referring to, and my reply was my Lincoln is a good car, it's not my fault that whoever edited my comment did it incorrectly.
Anyways, I will put my 96 Town Car up against any Lexus LS 400 as far as reliability and build quality, and you are right, this conversation is not going anywhere, so please stick with defending your Toyota threads, they need your help over there.

"Nope. Sorry, but if you want to buy a better brand of car over Toyota, that simply doesn't exist."
Please cite accurate and concise sources for such statements please. The past three reviews of compact cars I have read rated the Toyota Corolla dead last (Ford and Hyundai take tops spots in those tests). The Tundra has had numerous brake and suspension issues. Since 2009, Federal Grand Juries issued three subpoenas against Toyota for very serious negligence in not responding to safety complaints. After over 22 million recalls, a statement such as the one cited hardly makes any sense.

Please keep your opinions about Toyota to a relevant Toyota review, that is completely off topic.
That is just your opinion anyways, and no more than that.
I myself would buy many brands before I considered a Toyota.
But then again, just my opinion.
As far as being anti technology, I think it's more about trying to find the best car that works for you.
I admit some of the older cars and trucks were very well built, and some of the newer ones are very cheaply made, but there are always exceptions.
I have both newer and older cars myself, and I must say I prefer the simplicity of working on the older ones.
Not everyone is caught up in the materialistic trend of always buying a new car and selling the old one at a loss; it's a very wasteful thing to do. If it wasn't for my work making me have a late model car, I would probably just drive a beater around to save money, as I don't need to impress anyone or show off with my car.
