NOT ALWAYS!

There was a time back in the late '80s / early '90s when my daily driver was
an '80 MGB & my wife's a bought-new Toyota Camry.  My MGB was 100% reliable,
year-round, 10,000 miles a year.  The Camry was the worst car we have ever
owned for reliability, production quality, handling and it was useless in
snow.  And, the dealer knew less about what went wrong (which was often)
than I did.  After it left us stranded in the middle of nowhere for the 3rd
time, it was traded for a Saab.

We now have 2 German vehicles, 1 Italian & 1 British.  And, after our Toyota
experience, we'll never own another Toyota product.  And, likely no other
Japanese either.
