I agree Toyota is basically screwed, and they made their own bed, but are there people who actually think 80s-90s GM products were more reliable then Toyotas? I think Captain Obvious needs to have a talk with all the nutswingers on this, and other similiar sites. Im thrilled that GM and Ford (Chrysler deserves to go out of business) are finally, for the first time ever - making relevant vehicles that people want, and apparently even decided to throw quality into the mix too...but 2 of the big 3 needed taxpayer bailouts after decade after decade of making crap...oh, but thats right, Toyotas and Hondas were never reliable, right? I love my Camaro, but Im not one of those close-minded fanboy types.

I'd say the Chrysler. Why I know of plenty of 20 and 30 year old (and even older) Chryslers on the road, you are a prime example of what's wrong with America, you have bit right into the "Toyota Quality" BS. I would easily drive either of the big 3s cars and easily expect reliability. My 07 Patriot runs great, it has 40k miles, but has not led the easiest life (lots of offroad, mudding, hunting, hauling hay, dogs, groceries, 50 mile 1 way drive to work, etc, etc). I would esily buy a Ford, Dodge or Chevy over a Toyota if "getting their hands dirty" was a requirement.
