Toyota cars (quality)?


Do you think Toyota cars has best quality? But I’ve noticed that Toyota models made in usa quality is different from the ones made in Japan (goes with every other car make). Toyota models made in usa tend to have less quality than japans. I’ve also noticed that the quality in putting together parts are low in usa Toyota models. (wind shield interior panels, dash board, interior lights etc..) Whats the difference in the over cease plants from usa car plants that makes cars more better!?
what I meant by low quality in parts is them being snapped together perfectly well (not looking like its put together right….like in some ford suvs/ cars)

    I’ve owned many “Japanese” cars both in Japan (and made in Japan) and in US (made in US, Japan, Mexico, etc).

    What I found is, the place that is ASSEMBLED makes very little difference to the overall quality. Today, cars are made out of parts made in all-over-the-world.

    Today, I will not hesitate to buy any cars based on where it is assembled.

    I don’t know about if they are the best, but I owned two Celica-s and they were the easiest cars I ever worked on. Like the window crank on a used one, pop the door panel, go get a new crank assembly and it bolts right in in a few minutes.

    A few friends had a few and they ran passed 200,000 miles + with normal maintenance.

    I own a Toyota Tundra

    and it’s got higher quality than Ford by a mile.

    what cars are you talking about?.

    are you familiar with the the term, “talking thru your hat”

    be talking through your hat (old-fashioned, informal)
    to be talking about a subject as if you know a lot about it when in fact you know very little.

    toyotas are NOT best in quality. althought hey’re highly reliable, the interior is usually cheap looking and cheap feel and nto to mention cheap quality.

    ive found the best with german cars. such as VW, and mercedes and such. they’re wonderous. and even with the newer american cars, they feel mroe refined than the japanese cars nowadays

    most things labeled ‘made in japan’ are of greater quality, no s***. it was names like toyota and sony that had Americans associating japanese goods with good quality since they first appeared in the US. the misconception, however, is that all things made under these names are equal, and yes, toyotas made elsewhere besides their homeland is usually of lesser quality, but not by much. did you know, the lexus rx suv that gets raves for impeccable fit and finish is actually made in Canada? ‘made in japan’ comes with a larger price tag due to higher labor costs demanded by the japanese (you get what you pay for, good quality/unfair prices). moving productions elsewhere will in the end cost you, the consumer, less money.

    Yea. Cars are manufactured in defferent factories (countries). And the US industory makes a request Japan using American company’s parts (though most of them are made in China or Mexco).

    BTW, Toyota’s sales still not bad in the world.
