The front page is really only a place for quick opinion and little thought.

Thats surprising. I thought they could do no wrong as far as the FP is concerned.

It may just be the vultures circling, they dont discriminate.

FP comments are almost intolerable to read at this point, and those are the un-greyed comments!

You know, Ive been going there less and less lately. NP CP, Tyler Rogoway, Douggie D and Paper Jam are about the only things I check anymore.

I blame it on Patrick shaving his beard.

What? The FP hates Toyota for the most part. It’s Mazda and Volvo that can do no wrong, along with RWD GM products.

Toyota does make really good cars that last forever, I admit it myself.

I do say that I would like this Toyota very much.

Odd. Tyler’s junk is one of the main reasons I avoid the FP. When one of the paid authors goes around accusing anyone who points out one of his many errors of being ‘shills’, it really doesn’t fit with the Jalopnik ethos.

Maybe Im reading the wrong site then. GM and Chryco get all the hate. I agree with the Mazda and Volvo though.

Toyota ONLY makes the Prius and the Camry, apparently.

I have been attacked for my defense of Lexus on numerous occasions. And trying to use the logic that the Prius and Camry pay for things like the Toyobaru (which is amazing that it exists), the RC F (which is amazing for what is is), the GS F (which is amazing for what it is as well), the new LC (which is amazing), and the TS040 (which should have won Le Mans last year). Nope. Doesn’t work.

And the only car anyone will admit is cool is the LFA, and I feel that most people forget that Toyota owns Lexus, so the LFA is actually a Toyota.

Whatever. Fuck the FP. They know everything already I guess.

If it happened to a manufacturer that belonged in the Jalop circle jerk, the world would be ending

GM gets the hate. Ford, mazda, and volvo get the praise.

As I said, RWD GM products. If you haven’t seen that, then yeah, you haven’t been looking at Jalopnik.

You clearly have forgotten that the Corvette, Colorado, Silverado, Camaro, and all of Cadillac are made by GM then. Then again, after crashing the Camaro, they might just have to kiss ass to review their cars.

No the corvette, camaro, and caddy is made by Ford *sarcasm*. The GM product bashing hit a pinnacle with the ignition switch recall (it was a serious safety issue) and yes they probably had to kiss butts and apologize to review another camaro.

Honest confessions: At some point, I’d really like another Echo. Maybe an RS Hatchback this time.

Since you brought it up, as much as they dislike GM. They probably offer more rwd vehicles than most brands.

GM: CTS, ATS, CT6, Escahokon, Sierrado, Coloyan, Camaro, Corvette, SS.

Toyota: Tundra, Toyobaru, Tacoma, 4Runner, Land Cruiser/LX, Sequoia, GX, LS, GS, LC, IS, RC.

Toyota has them beat.

GM: CTS, ATS, CT6, Escalade, Tahoe, Yukon, Sierra, Silverado, Savana, Express, Colorado, Canyon, Camaro, Corvette, SS.

Toyota: Tundra, Toyobaru, Tacoma, 4Runner, Land Cruiser/LX, Sequoia, GX, LS, GS, LC, IS, RC.

Toyota has them beat.

I honestly have no idea what half of those Lexus names are.

Like the Land Cruiser/LX, the Escalade, Tahoe, and Yukon are basically the same thing, just better interiors/suspension. Same goes for the Sierra/Silverado and the one I forgot, the Savanna/Express. Toyota still has more.

They may share a platform, but that doesnt mean its the same vehicle. I know your biased man, but come on.

Same wheel base, nearly identical dimensions, same body, same engine options, same transmission option. The difference comes down to NVH, suspension, dash design, interior quality, front end, and lights. They are the same SUV/trucks, just with different quality trims. No bias there, just fact. Just like the LX570 and the Land Cruiser are exactly the same, with the exception of the front end, suspension, NVH, and overall interior quality. Plus, that’s all GM has that is RWD(with the exception of the Caprice/Park Avenue and Trailblazer), Toyota has even more for foreign markets.

Escalade ESV wheelbase 130" and 6.2 liter

Tahoe wheelbase 116" and 5.3 liter

Would you also say that a Chevy SS sedan and a 2015 Camaro are the same?

Or a new CTS and 6th gen Camaro?

How about a base model 4.3 Silverado vs a 3500 HD?

Regardless of all the nitpicking, you may be right and Toyota is rwd king.

Completely forgot about the Suburban. But next to Toyota, GM is probably next in line.

Dont forget about the medium duty trucks.

Toyota has Hino, an entire subrand dedicated to them.

Those stupid things are Toyota? I figured they were Korean. One of my buddies works for a company that has one as a delivery truck. He hates it. Says they keep having to get it serviced for random shit not working. So they end up renting uhauls while its down lol.
