    Jim Moran was an automotive visionary who brought Toyota distribution to the Southeast USA and he was strong early supporter of the Lexus line. His company has always been among the top privately owned businesses in the Country and his employees enjoyed working for him.

    It's ironic that he passed away the day Toyota announced surpassing GM in quarterly sales for the first time ever.

    there's vast speculation about what's going to happen to SET now... apparently his daughter doesn't want to deal with it. it's a shame with how far he brought things, but SET isn't without its criticisms.

    I believe that without SET, prices for Toyota's can drastically fall in the US
