In article , says... http://tinyurl.com/cwydck5 More proof that Consumer Reports is a useless rag. Teslas are still out of my price range, but I don't have a problem with the CR testing. Note the comment about reliability, which was not scored. I saw one on the way to Richmond the other day. I-95 was stopped (naturally), and the Tesla was right next to me. Good looking car.

They've always been a big fan of Toyotas and so am I. If CR didn't like a lot of what Detroit was producing, that's just a reflection of their accuracy and perceptiveness in my opinion. |

They myth of the Toyota has been blown up in recent years. ========= There's no myth - the darn things are like the energizer bunny; they just keep running and running and running. They're not perfect but my wife and I have owned a bunch of them. All have gone well over ten years and well over 150,000 miles with only minimal unscheduled maintenance. Several were eventually handed down to the kids. I'm still driving my V8, 4WD Tundra which is now almost 12 years old and over 100K miles. That's my definition of reliability and low upkeep. The Honda Accords are excellent also. I've only owned three Detroit products in my adult years. All were purchased new, or almost new, and maintained to factory schedules. None of them made it past 6 or 7 years, and all of them had become maintenance hogs by that time. I wish Toyota made boat engines. Those V-8s they use in the Tundra would be real winners. |

Four years with the RAV4 and I can't remember a single problem that I had to take it in for...other than scheduled semi-annual oil changes and 2 safety recalls.
Sure hope my new Highlander is as reliable. Seven weeks and I have almost 2000 kilometers on the odometer. |

CR's been giving some of the Buicks pretty high marks, and, of course, Chrysler continues to suck hind teat. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |
