Who's this Patrick Hoey? Yeah, my point exactly



No offense, this so called "article" is merely an opinion, and can hardly say such a "blog" is unbiased. True that this new Tundra launch didn't go without a hitch (no pun intended), but that's the price to pay when there're risks involved, much like the stock market or gambling in the casino. The main thing is Toyota can afford to take a big hit or two, as if they haven't before. It's an expensive lesson learned, and surely this will help them improve on succeeding generations of trucks in the coming years. And who from Toyota said they're taking this domestic-truck-market-game lightly? Seems like this "blogger" is putting words into people's mouth, probably just to get his opinions acrossed.

There goes my 10 minutes writing that crap above in response to this blog. At the end of the day it's very simple: if you don't like the truck, don't buy it. There're plenty of competing trucks you can waste you money on. And last but not least, is it not commendable that Toyota is proactively replacing engines to the ones who had camshaft failures, even though it's the supplier's fault but Toyota had no choice but to be responsible for? What else do you expect Toyota to do? Keep it quiet, blame the customers for the camshafts snapping, and not do anything about it until more problems arise to the point where one can no longer hide such defects?

Seems like anyone can be a professional journalist nowadays
