Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Merc GL450

[Mike Fleischer (themightytoe]

See now I can't argue either point here...  My wife drives a Toyota 
4Runner.  Its dead on reliable, its like my Honda lawn mower...  Though 
not as loud.

That said it is the automotive equivalent of white paste or elevator 
music or de-caffeinated coffee, or diet coke.  Its the Nutra-sweet of 
the car world...  All toyotas are without exception.  The only thing 
worse I think are the poor saps who spend even more for a Lexus, which 
is just a jar of white paste with some golden sparkles in it or elevator 
music in stereo or diet decaffeinated coke ONE...  The splenda of the 
car world...  You paid more, but got the same no soul...

My God how I loathe driving it, even though its quiet, smooth, closes up 
like a vault and gets me there with a minimum of fuss, is easy to load 
and unload, kids like it, and it never hiccups even a little bit...

Hateful Soulless thing, makes me want to drill a pinhole in an oil line 
so it leaves a bit on the garage floor...
