Come on down, we are building about 700 trucks a day now. Mostly C-cab's (or are they called double cab's now?). We will start building the Crew Max (we call it a D-cab still) in a couple of months. It is all pretty amazing, the pictures I could show (if I wanted to get fired), the stories I could tell. Paint booths about as long as football fields, almost 100 robots swarming around cabs and decks as they move through, then baking in ovens bigger than most school gyms.
But the toyota quality comes from the people. Visually inspecting the bodies in tunnels with 100's of flourescent light bulbs to show the smallest defect. And this is done after e-coat, primer and topcoat.
Why does your Toyota cost more? That is why! It's the pride, it's the love, it's a Toyota!
Texas12....I get to see yor guy's end work and I must say...damed fine job.
P.S. Way to go keeping the unions out of the plants. :-) My many thanks as a seller of Toyota parts.

I have never worked union before but from what I have heard and seen, I would/will fight to keep them out. Thanks for the compliments.

Good to know some people still take pride in there jobs. That's part of the downfall of the Big 3. Unions didn't help either. It's a nice looking truck, and I hope they preform and last as well as some of the older Toy's.
