- The Japanese Car Company is a corporate behemoth - but it's done much more than just give us Corollas or Land Cruisers. It's changed the way the world makes products. Here's how.

2010 Corolla, 360,000 miles ... daily driver, survives Minnesota blizzards with -60 wind chill, still not a spot of rust ... still gets 45mpg on highway ... only mechanical failure since new is one alternator (less than $200) that took me 15 minutes to replace by myself using one socket/ratchet ... I think Toyota's build quality speaks for itself
Mine too, 360,000 miles (575000 kms). Used as a taxi before me, a lot of city driving. And it still runs. But it's not a Corolla, it's a Daihatsu made Toyota called Avanza
Toyota will always be the king of the British Columbia logging roads. they only come off the road when they get a VI (Vehicle Inspection) label.
Losers like you still don't understand that windchill means NOTHING. Your vehicle will never reach any temperature lower than ambient. EVER. Mean while I have a 98 Dodge Ram 2500 diesel. 300k miles. Oil and filters. Wyoming and Colorado... -25F. What is your fing point again?
Just bought my 2024 corolla hatchback, thrilled to know this car is gonna go a decade old!
How many times have you crashed and it was your fault? just curious
250 million cars made, and most of them are probably still running........
I mean it kind of is.. even though my own Corolla broke in 9 days...
@Haris Inam took hurricane Irma to kill my 20 year old corolla.. I miss the brown bomber 😰
Tesla, built in a tent
Haris Inam my neighbor still have their 1970 corolla running though?
I've just been in japan and it's amazing to see that they still have Toyota crown comfort taxis from the late 90s everywhere ! This is something that you just don't see anywhere else.
My step-dad was a long time Ford pick-up truck owner. At some point later in life he ended up getting a used Corolla. He kept complaining that he wanted to get rid of it but the damn thing just wouldn't die!
Lol
Yeah my friends dad didnt change the oil or anything in his little toyota tacoma pick up 4cyl the mf ran for 13 years like that lol
@@Bass1ne That's so unreal, but when I got my first car (2009 Nissan Sentra, 138,000 miles) I drove it for 3 years without getting an oil change because I was tight on money. Eventually, I got a way better job after I finished school and I'm still using the same car now at 180,000 miles on it. I've now had the car for 5 years.
@@ilivelifeso1 so did you change the oil after you got the better job or you kept running the same oil lol.
@@yoshi92491Of course... lol. Going to try and make that baby last
Toyota and Honda. Two of the most reliable brand and hated by Machanic, because they can't make much money out of it lol.
Toyota makes better automatic transmissions.
Mr BrightSide Yet it’s Honda which started the decline of the car in my opinion. Their Civic from around 15 years ago was the first car I really noticed that was hard to look through the rear windshield. Making it impossible for me to see if there’s someone behind the driver’s seat who could leave their car. When I realised that I couldn’t see that anymore, I had to actually stay out of the door zone when cycling.
Before that I could cycle in the zone and swerve out when I saw a driver behind the wheel of a parked car. That Honda Civic was, in my opinion, the car that ignited terrible car design.
Hassan Ali maybe they will come up in the future but none of thier cars look appealing, or maybe they are just like that and won’t improve
+Mr BrightSide Honda is actually eighth. Just cause its Japanese does not mean it is the most reliable. Toyota and Lexus occupy the top two spots, however.
Toyota makes it's cars with help of different brands now. New Aygo is made with the help of PSA(Imagine that.), new Supra is made with the help of BMW. Previously they had to get help from Yamaha to build their perfomance engines. Honda, though, is all-Honda.
I'm surprised they didn't talk about how Toyota was the first to experiment with a modular design. They had 6 independent teams create an engine for the Prius given a predefined interface to the engine. The most efficient design made it to the final stage of production. They credit that process to the efficiency breakthrough of the hybrid Prius engine.
too bad they dont do any EVs
@@skataskatata9236🤮
I think they have the right idea personally. There’s no way we can convert all cars to electric with the current mining of the elements needed. Toyota can make 6 or more plug in hybrids like the Prius prime or rav4 prime with the same amount of raw materials as 1 Tesla. For now we’re resource limited on how many EVs we can produce. So if you have the option to make 6 plug in hybrids with 40 miles of all electric range or 1 EV with 300 miles of range; the Toyota route gets you 6 cars that are all electric 80+ percent of the time. Vs the EV route of having one car all electric.
Plus, many people can’t afford to have two cars and occasionally have to do a long road trip. If I had a plug in hybrid, I could get all the benefits of a full EV on my daily commute. but still not need to worry about range anxiety on a long road trip.
@@CV-ly6ct Why don't you go off yourself in the corner? You will never bring society down to you level. Accept the big L that you earned.
My 2003 Land Cruiser is approaching 300,000mi. :)
I have a 1994 Land cruiser with 490,000Km on its original motor. Goes really well to this day! Well done on getting to 300!!!
It is unstoppable.
I drive in a heavy traffic city so that probably explains why my engine fails at 130k.
My 2006 Prius has 253k miles on original hybrid battery, ICE engine and all drivetrain.
My 2012 Mercedes has 180K, and my 84 Mercedes has 525K
;0
My dad had an old Corolla. He bought it used and drove it 240 miles a day (round trip) to work and back. Went the engine finally quit running it had a little over a million miles on it. Toyota knows how to make a great car!
i am more surprised with your dads commute miles than car’s final miles
240 each day means around 4 hours of travel time daily
@pritpalgill3239 yea, he was living in Willows, CA, and worked in Benicia, CA.
Google says it is 113.4 miles, city to city, but from home to work, it was closer to 120 miles one way. The car was an 87' Corolla hatchback (pumpkin orange). He bought it used in 92', and the car finally threw a piston rod through the block in (I think) 2001 or 2002
Best selling car of all time I learned recently!
Scotty kilmer approves this video.

You bet.....hehehe
Lol 😂
The reason Nissan, Toyota, and Honda have/had so much success in the US is due to the fact that they began designing cars with fuel efficiency in mind whereas American automakers were just looking to make cars for profit.
Greed has and is hurting America. How many US-made cars end up in junkyards compared to Japanese cars.
You can sell a used Toyota at a higher price because of the higher demand for a lower maintenance vehicle.
Toyota always wanted profit, but they have other markets than USA, and thus european and asian regulations play a bigger part than american. The only car i can recall being made for americans would a Tacoma
Gas in Europe costs 2 euros a litre. In the US it's 80 cents. American manufacturers never prioritized efficiency because there was literally never a demand for it.
@@GeneralKenobi69420 even now though, american cars have a poorer fuel economy to their european and japanese counterparts. Difference in market I guess
My corolla has over 300k and still runs great!
fargo loomis mines gettting there 270k
My dad had a company provided Corolla and I loved it. First car through which I learnt to drive. Such sweet memories with Toyota :)
fargo loomis ok settle down scotty kilmer.
My paint is peeling and normal wear and tear inside but the Corolla beast still runs
Corollas never die
In the late 80's I was at the Camry plant in Georgetown KY. The JIT in action was amazing. The supplier of the car seats had Toyota's production schedule weeks ahead. There was literally no staging area. The seats came off the semi trailers, and into the next car coming down the line.
200,000 miles on my Lexus ES330 and Pontiac Vibe (Toyota Matrix).
Airplane EDM航空機と音楽/ Also depends on how much maintenance is needed. A Chevy traverse needs plenty of expensive maintenance over its life while cars that need less maintenance stay around. Overall, though all cars need maintenance, those that need less last longer, unlock those that end up with cracked engine blocks(Cadillac North Star 8 for example)
@@Schaffkid Yeah but Toyota cars don't require much maintenance
I am proud, that as a consultant I was part in thee Boeing JIT transformation using the Toyota Lean Model.
This really empowers people to be part of the process as thinking and profiting individuals, day by day.
Do you have any book recommendations sir?
And how exactly did this benefit the consumers? All saving go to companies profits
Are you still proud?
that sounds like a positive contribution to society
@@RPDBY Where else would they go? It's a company not a charity
No mention of W Edwards Deming who helped and taught the japanese the processes that lead to Kaizan and JIT, the American big 3 ignored him so he took it where people would listen
Ah yes, "The Book"
I went to a toyota/lexus plant last year near Fukuoka on an exchange trip. Those factories are crazy efficient, everything runs on the dot. Pretty impressive
No 10mm's were lost in the production of this video
Zark Dx could take apart 80% of a Kawasaki Ninja with a 10mm
Having one worker be able to stop an entire production plant sounded crazy to my ears the first time I heard it. Still does in some way but apparently it works, so that’s great
It works because it forces a permanent correction rather than having the error continue - kinda like steering a car with small adjustments.
It does sound nuts but it works this is why they just don't hire anyone either I've worked on these systems for nearly a decade.
Imagine being the guy who made the mistake. That's probably why it works.
@@mattc9009 nah its a series of perfecting the positions, you have inspectors coming in now and then and try to improve so they time you while doing a task etc.. it's autistic as fuck but it's Japanese idea so not surprised.
I work at Toyota Motor Manufacturing Kentucky, in the Lexus plant. I don't know if it's different in Japan, but when the andon is pulled the line never stops. It just notifies a team leader who will assess the situation. Team leaders can stop the line, but they'll only do so if there's a safety concern or a problem with the machinery. The quality issue on the car is either fixed on that line while it's still running, or they let it go to online repair which is right after final line and before inspection. If the problem can't be fixed online then they'll take it to offline repair.
Boeing was a terrible example. They find errors and ignore them lol
@@faranocks There was a series of NY Times articles on Boeing's South Caroline plant which makes the 787 dreamliner, and apparently the plant is very poorly run compared with their high quality plants in Washington state. It was an eye opening article. The South Carolina plant was in such a hurry to complete planes on schedule that tools (including an entire frickin ladder!!), trash, and dangerous metal shavings were left INSIDE the brand new planes. QA managers who reported these issues were ignored or pushed out. A Boeing customer, Qatar Airways, apparently refuses to accept planes built in SC, and would only accept the 787s built in Everett Washington.
Oh so the planes gonna crash? Hmm let them be we will fix it on the ground
@@faranocks the two crashed airliners beg to differ
TOO SOON BRAH! BOEING needs to be sued into bankruptcy
That's indicative of American companies because American companies only care about money and that mindset of greed has hurt this country over the past 4 or so decades.
My Toyota now clocked up 450K. Still going strong
Once, we had a lean manufacturing in-house training and the trainer asked, “Do you practise just-in-time?”
My colleague replied, “When we come to work in the morning and go back in the evening.” 😂
I don
My friend doesn't get it
He comes and goes from work just I time to leave and just in time to get there.
I don't think it's fair to say that kanban was a precursor to barcodes. They are two completely different things that serve completely different purposes. Kanban is a resource planning system. Barcodes are used for resource tracking. So really they serve different yet complementary purposes.
Also you can't "plan" a project with barcodes. That's what kanban is for.
Kanban is SDLC system development life cycle methodology for project or plans
When I worked for Aisin Kikou Shin-Toyota Plant we learned that the kanban was supposed to be treat like a 100 dollar bill, without it things would get lost, and things would start to go really bad.
But I was just an assembly line operator for the Lexus branch, so what do I know right?! hahahaha.
LimitedWard agreed. Though kanban is not restricted to project management only
I think he meant it's the precoursor for tracking parts to make sure things go where they should go and no parts are lost or wasted
Technically, they invented QR codes, so something in that story may have gotten mixed up.
The last minute is one that has greater weight in 2024. The pandemic taught us all that what we called "Waste" is also Redundancy, Backup, and Adaptability. Toyota is struggling with electric car production and marketing, Boeing's planes are literally having parts fall off in flight, and Intel is hopelessly behind in AI innovation and market share. Toyota did change the way we made things, and we learned the hard way that is came with substantial negatives as well.
Don't forget the huge contributions that W. Edwards Deming made in Japanese manufacturing!
Tesla should start taking notes
Toyota owns a part of Tesla
Toyota sold off their Tesla stock 1 or 2 years ago. Regardless, most companies use Kaizen/Demming continuous improvement processes.
They already do. That’s why they have the most they can automated by robots that do exactly the same work in the exact same way every time eliminating human error.
Toyota and Lexus are tesla but in steroids. Believe or not in a couple of years all Toyota vehicles are going to be cell power not more gas.
tesla does it even better. they only build the car when it's already sold. compered to other company they need to create stock for the dealers
It's funny coming back to a video extolling the virtues of Just In Time after a pandemic and supply crunches highlighted the unmentioned or glossed over pitfalls.
The company I worked for in the past worked with Toyota. And their engineers are very strict. No wonder they produce high quality products
I love how Toyota believes in the creed, “anything worth doing is worth doing well”
I learned about this in my operational management class. We went pretty in detail on some of the metrics Toyota used. Cool stuff
nobody cares and nobody asked
@@rattlefate378 Understandable bro, apologies about that. Have a nice day.
I'm a denso employee a Japanese car part manufacturer and they also use these ideas to make their company better. The kaizen and kanban items.
The displayed 'supermarket principle' is exactly what makes our work in a logistics company possible - and even fun.
been a loyal driver of Toyota products 4 close 2 30yrs.
Won't go wrong.
@@fridgemagnet9831
Amen. But my FJ's oil change and filter just cost me $113can
I really don't see what you can get for a lot less and is still comparable let alone a lot better. Companies have to be competitive and as such they are priced reasonably relative to the quality and the market segment.
I gave up on GM.
For* To*
They are truly masters of their craft.
1998 Toyota Camry w/ 300K
The worst thing you can do is let the car sit for a long time, they are meant to be driven daily.
I love Toyota’s. In fact, my mom has one and my dad has one. Also, three of my aunts have one too. Mine is a Honda Accord. But, I want to get a Highlander.
The Toyota Production System is a must-have lesson in any quality management or production organizing course. I learned the same thing in three different courses I chose at university.
4:04 That comment about Boeing hasn't aged very well.
My last Tacoma I traded in at 360k, it was an 01, I now have the 18, love this truck. If I'd had the extra money I would've held onto my old truck too, but I still got decent money for it and it had a newish frame after Toyota replaced it. Miss that old boy. If my new truck is half as reliable as that guy I'll be happy.
I bet you still didn't bother waxing your undercarriage, much less washing it.
Odd, no mention of the Shewhart/Demming cycle sent over with Dr. Demming to Japan after the war to help manufacturing.
Shoichiro Toyoda, Honorary Chairman and director of Toyota: “There is not a day I don’t think about what Dr. Deming meant to us. Deming is the core of our management.”
You skipped over the contributions by W. Edward Demmings. He was a significant factor in this success. So much so Japan created an award for him. An impressive feat for a foreigner, especially one from the country that dropped two nuclear bombs on it a few years previous.
Bloomberg, you should do a video on how Kanban is also used for software development! :)
Great video! The andon cord doesn't stop the line, until it is pulled a second time. The first pull, gives the Team Leader just enough time to grasp the problem. Also, the 70% line, helps the Team Members to judge when to pull the line. Great information share!
Wooooow is it only me that get goosebumps when watching a car assembly line or a factory that makes things brilliantly
The paper manufacturing plant I worked at used all of these techniques, but did an absolutely terrible job. One plant was shut down every year to clean the entirety of the machinery, ours was still up 24/7. So our overworked machinery suffered because of it. And because our plant was separate from the main plant, we didn't have dedicated warehouse staff all hours, and no supervisor. So the just in time manufacturing turned into not quite in time. Nice to see how a company properly operates with these systems!
Toyota didnt make fastest car, most beautiful car but they make car that can last forever with just basic maintenance. My parents 10 years Camry still doing well without any major part replaced, while 2 year old Peugeot 508 had engine prob, power window issue and we need to replace aircond compressor.
My Toyota is 48 years old and still running strong
This comment will most definitely get buried an no one will probably even read it BUT back in 2014-2016 I worked at the Toyota plant in Woodstock Ontario, making the RAV4. Basically everything they said in this video is true except for when you pull the cord and everyone works on a car to fix the problem. Only a few team leaders would fix the car and if it got off of your line (trim line) and got sent to the chassis line next, then the team leader in charge of that car would have to keep trying to fix it up until it was fixed.
He stated they started using the yellow cord and everyone worked at it at the BEGINNING of the company, he didn't say it is the same today.
true, somebody had a heart attack on line once and they just dragged them off and kept that line running lol
One of the most boring shitboxes ever. If you hate drive, it will be great, they are reliable
@@cooperp6429 we'll go on, dude. Tell us more.
Cooper Pinter - Toyota is starting to get the driving experience better. It's true, it's one reason I don't own one. I'd really love to have the 'forget it' reliability of a Toyota, but I want something that's at least a little bit interesting to drive. Toyotas typically are as fun to drive as a washing machine. Mushy steering and suspensions.
I worked at Toledo Jeep Assembly since 1978 and we started using "lean manufacturing " in 2001 .
The assembly line was built so parts of it could stop while the rest of it would still be moving .
If a employee didnt finish his operation or there was a problem in the process the line stopped until it was fixed .
Amazing Video. How Toyota changed the whole world. lean manufacturing, Kaizen, Just in time all we need to use and apply on our organizations. Thank you.
I drive an 83 Toyota SR5 4WD wagon with 360k miles. Still runs great!
Wow great insightful little clip, glad I know more about Toyota now. 👍
now if they could just add more horsepower to the Toyota GT86 and finally release the Toyota Supra with 100% toyota parts and no BMW parts
I completely agree with they should have been keeping working with yamaha as they did with the supra and lfa years ago we don't know how people are going to react when the new supra will be unveil
These days making anything other than Crossovers and SUVs is not profitable. There is no choice other than supplying parts from somewhere else to make it happen.
would you buy both?
Low volume, low profits vs the cost of R&D. They are dragging their feet when it comes to making these interesting cars.
The new supra will be a disaster
I work in a mid-western metal stamping company making metal stampings for most major auto manufacturers and we've used TPS many times.
I think the real secret of highly cost-efficient operation might come from the working ethic. If the whole team needs to stop the whole assembly line to fix one car, the engineers and mechanics have to do it quickly.
no. its a difference of prioritizing quality over quantity. in a GM plant during the same era anyone who stopped the line, even if to retrieve an injured worker, would be met with a team of managers screaming and shouting at them to restart it ASAP
If you leave your bag in Japan in a public space it will never get taken away. Honor and integrity is a fabric of Japanese culture hence the Toyotas that last forever.
Michaelson Sarmiento The Japanese people are honest. I think they are nice people, but Israel will always be the best, most perfect county in the world by far as everyone knows.
@@cocotaveras8975 how? Will you elaborate?
@@cocotaveras8975 this makes no sense. For the sheer size of the country japan is, they’re the most societally organized and impressive. Israel is a symbol of controversy in many parts of middle east
@@cocotaveras8975 begone kite
Wishful thinking. Japan has a low crime rate, but recently the country has been experiencing incidents that make the world scratch its head about the notion of a "safe Japan".
Remember when fuel pumps lasted 40k and starters, alternators and mufflers not a whole lot longer... That's the time Japanese figured out they needed to make a car last 200k before those parts needed replacement to make a dent in the US car market..They pulled it off magnificently and no doubt raised the quality of all US made cars..
Thank you for making this video! Very well done!
You forgot to credit Dr. Demi and Peter Drucker that where rejected by GM motors and embraced by Toyota, they are real fathers of this production system
Corolla 2004 500,000km and the only engine problem is a leaking valve cover gasket which is already fixed
I am seeing a new light..I ve always driven chevy n recall many repairs..car dead at 110k..my recent purchase outside of chevy car was Nissan.200k n going. My new research has me in awe over Toyota . Which Suv or truck should I aim for?
The company I worked at that made seatbelts used this system.
It works when everyone is on board, employees included. But that wasn't the case, so it didn't work that well.
At 3:45 directly after saying american gas guzzling vehicles, it shows a red mustang svo roll by. That car was one of fords first 4 cylinder turbo cars, and definitely not the typical has guzzler by any means. Great video anyways, my inner car nerd just kicked in is all. I'm a proud Toyota owner.
Not only that but Toyota also made their fair share of gas guzzling SUVs (4runner, Land Cruiser, Sequoia)
My 2010 Toyota Avensis 1.6 with close to 820000km still runs, and runs, and runs. Taken great care of that car; I just love it.
350k 2002 Toyota Tacoma and the only thing that has happened is the shifter stuck in park once(it fixed itself) and a broken timing belt. ( Something bound to happen). Still runs amazing.
Just in time manufacturing does have its drawbacks. I think the stopping the assembly line policy and addressing quality problems right away on the other hand is just a separate great idea that makes Toyota absolutely reliable.
In practice, at least where I am, it often ends up being "Why did you stop the line? We're going to be here all night now. Just bypass it, it gets covered up anyways."
In 250 millions I think there are 100 millions Corolla which hasn't die yet cause in this comment section people are explaining how nice their Corolla is .
lean manufacturing or called JIT (just in time manufacturing) where manufacturers vertically integrate supply chains and move the warehouse next door so parts can be there when needed. Saves on time and transportation costs.
It's more than that. The supplier builds small lots (ideally, lot size '1') and ships them so they arrive exactly when they're needed. No warehousing. That way, inventory is minimized, and any problems with the suppliers' parts are caught early so they can be corrected with minimal scrap.
JIT is a element of lean.
Limiting over-production of parts and finished products and on the other side ensuring quantities are exactly as demanded and less than demand.
Companies like Autoliv adopted the lean system too and witnessed tremendous results. Autoliv's production system is touted to be an advanced version of JIT
Just don't forget lean means you have a small amount of inventory, not none. And it is no excuse to not be prepared for when a supplier is shut down and can no longer provide parts. Redundancy is just as important if not more.
I still love Mazda and Mitsubishi. But Id love a Lexus one day. 2001 LS430 will do for me:D
I have a '97 EX 300. Just broke 200k miles. Great cars!
What’s the name of that Canadian Hospital they referred to ??
And how did they apply Toyota production concepts in a hospital? THAT would be interesting.

This video brought to you by Scotty Kilmer.
Toyota engines will never die I have a 4k engine and still running great and my neighbor had a Toyota corona 1982 12r engine but not running due to electrical problem
i hav bicycle
Nice video. The genesis for the entire Japanese and lean approach is rooted in Training Within Industry.
For a person who uses car to get from point A to B Toyota's are the best cars ever made. I got a brand new Camry in 2011 and so far other than regular oil/tire change I took it to garage for a total of 2 times. That too for small problems. The engine and every major components are in perfect condition.
i literally spent 3 years and $19,000Cad to learn this is college. and yet, Bloomberg summarized it blissfully. Every automotive facility almost globally uses a system that steams from Toyoda's system. Realistically they are a forefront even today's market, there demographic is ripe with populations for a market that loves small cars. GM ($35USD/share) and Ford($10USD) can barely hold together when fighting Toyoda($57USD{6500Yen}) trade war aside, they own a much bigger market they dominated us in the small-sized car marker, and our auto industry is on the brink of destruction unless we jump onto the manufacturing the Electric Vehicle market. I could go on for hours, but ill consider this a rant.
Scotty Kilmer liked this video
Toyota's approach to manufacturing, often known as the Toyota Production System (TPS) or lean manufacturing, is truly fascinating! It's amazing how they revolutionized the efficiency and quality of production processes, not just in the automotive industry but across various sectors. The emphasis on minimizing waste, continuous improvement, and respect for people has made a significant impact on manufacturing principles worldwide. It's always inspiring to see how innovative strategies can lead to such positive and widespread changes! 🌟🚗🔧
so touching for an excellent video
Re: stopping the production line to fix mistakes. The old adage "Practice makes Perfect" is actually wrong
-- it should be "Practice makes Permanent."
If you make a mistake and aren't corrected, you will continue doing it. That is why it's best to fix mistakes ASAP.
Some YT channels talk about the Focus RS head gasket problem -- small problem with dire/expensive consequences.
Nice video. Sweet song at the end! Alex Arcoleo - Radiance

I have Toyota frontier.. since 90s my grandfather and my father only like to buy Toyota cars
My Father's Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE 86 (Red) still runs at 670k perfectly. Just change oil and everything is fine. Dad is a stickler for maintenance so much. Wish my car would age very well too.
Woah 670K miles that's amazing!
Toyota is the best car company in the world. FACTS
Μαρτ Μ better is relative
So... no mention of William Edwards Deming?
Taiichi Ohno wrote a book about this, I highly recommend this book.
I read, 'The machine that changed the world' book. It is the most comprehensive book about Toyotas production techniques.
In my lifetime, I have worked for auto companies and owned domestic and foreign cars. Ford, GM, Chrysler, AMC, Audi, Mercedes, Fiat, BMW, Ferrari, Toyota, Honda, etc. The only ones that have lasted more than 15 years and have cost much less in maintenance cost have been Toyota and to a lesser extent surprisingly was Mercedes. Ford, GM, Chrysler, and Fiat have had major engine problems after five years of ownership or use. Most of the cars have maintenance issues that increase maintenance costs over the years that you will find is similar to what everyone complains about in the history auto blue books for every auto design. So if you buy or use one of these cars you will already know the headaches you will face in dealing with the problems inherent to each auto base model.
Such a beautiful, informative and inspiring video. Thanks for sharing with us.. ♥️
I just learned Toyota really is Toyoda. Which is ironically how I pronounce it. But more importantly. Why? Did someone misspell their names in the registration or what?! I'm confused.
It was because the number of strokes it took to write Toyota in Japanese is eight which was believed to bring good fortune and luck to the company
The name was chosen "because the number of strokes to write Toyota in Japanese (eight) was thought to bring luck and prosperity,"
Lucky eight.

My family has a toyota revo and they bought it in 2003 if i remember and when it hit a typhoon and the car got submerged in the flood my dad and some mechanic fixed it and up to this day and now im 22 yrs old it still runs and i use it today
