Who Benefits from Toyota’s Recall Problem?

Ed

No one.

 

And, who cares that the torrid tale of Toyota is as unseemly as Tiger Woods.  And why are “t” words getting such a bad rap?

 

Ok, do other auto makers will see a pick-up (excuse the pun) in sales.  But, will the price of Saki go down?  Will Sushi bars still be the raw fish thing?  Or, does this whole Toyota thing smell like a bad fish?

 

Ford might be happy.   Honda might have been excited for a minute but they’re most likely trying to add a German accent to their ads – let’s face it – the pain of Toyota is going to turn to the pain of Japanese cars and thousands of plaid shirt wearing men and women in America’s Midwest might be cheering.

 

This works against everyone.  Car dealers, car buyers, gas buyers, car washers, add the work car to anything and it’s going to take a hit.

 

How do you say “Cash for Clunkers” in Japanese?
