From a blog at US News and World Reports there is a post written by Rick Newman called “5 Reasons to Buy a Toyota”. I thought I would share some of the information that cuts through the media hype that we have been hearing about Toyota for last few weeks. I have also included a link to the blog at US News and World Reports for those of you that would like to read the entire article.
A few quotes from the article:
“Of 18 Toyota vehicles, seven rank in the top three in their category in the U.S. News Best Car and Truck rankings, including the Avalon sedan, Sienna minivan, Sequoia SUV, and Venza crossover.”
“In its latest quality ratings, J. D. Power & Associates ranks Lexus first and Toyota seventh, out of 37 automotive brands.”
“Consumer Reports named the Toyota Prius one of its 10 “Best Picks” for 2010, despite a recall involving brakes.”
“And Consumer Reports is poised to restore its coveted “recommended” status to eight vehicles it suspended from its ranking in the midst of the mushrooming recall controversy: the Avalon, Camry, Corolla, Highlander, Matrix, RAV4, Sequoia, and Tundra.”
“It’s worth recalling that the Audi sudden-acceleration incidents in the 1980s—at first thought to be related to vehicle flaws—were later proved to be entirely the fault of drivers.”
Those are some strong statements when it comes to the quality and safety of Toyota vehicles. Read this blog post in it’s entirety that is not filled the usual media hype at U.S. News and World Reports – Click Here
