numbers do lie.... you can skew data any way you like and after seeing cars in 'real world' situations, JD Power doesn't mean dick. What the fuck is the first 60 days of ownership? The car is still smelling factory new and hasn't nearly had the stuffing beat out of it yet. I see these cars at service shops and dealer service areas and they have some pretty catastrophic failures... what about the AWD Matrix and Vibes that are having rear diff failures... for no apparent reason?
if GM or Ford had the same failure issues that Toyota is experiencing now, it would be front page news.
| I'm not saying initial quality reports are the only metric to measure with. I agree, first 60 days....big deal. Also agreed, data can be skewed to read however you want it. I'm still confident... that companies that are responsible for reliability and quality data, readily available for the public, product and publish fair and true numbers. These aren't fly by nighters, and with public scrutiny and access to information laws.... I just don't see how they could feed incorrect information to the public that often, for that long and get away with it. I've been in business long enough that it's fair to say, dirty business players get what they deserve

| | | As a side note... Sam knows this, but I've been a World of Warcraft (World of Gaycraft as he calls it. ) for almost 6 years. Toyota got permission to use some of the rendering software and models to make a commercial a few years ago. About the same time South Park did an entire episode using the models and software. http://wowguidesan...ma-commercial.html This pissed me off because...well...it's freaking Toyota...least they could have done is let something american use it instead and on top of it...they let a really dumb paladin drive it and kill Onyxia with it...but that's a rant for another time.
