    Word of warning. If GM determines that moving significant car manufacturing operations to China would improve the bottom line, they would...and you would have the rug pulled from under you.

    I hate to ruin anybodies parade, but Toyota DOES have suppliers in the US! I work at one!! Maybe not all, but those will soon come! We seem to have a crappy atitude when it comes to ALOT of things...and people here tend to KNOW what's right, but just don't care enough to do what's right!! The Japanese have a methodical way of doing things and it proves itself time and time again! That is why it is becoming popular! The Toyota way as they put it! But most Americans are SO arrogent that they KNOW IT ALL!!!
    I love my country...but let me tell ya...some of the people here...jeez...they screw us more and more EVERYDAY!!!
    Alot of you may back talk me...but that only proves my point more...WE need to grow up and learn from others so we can get things right in this country...or else we WONT have bragging rights! WAKE UP AMURICA ,as it has been put!! (YES...AM-UR-ICA)

    i understand you are benefiting from Toyota but what about the other 4 people in the US your job elimated. these are the numbers, the US automotive trade deficit with Japan is more than $1 billion a week, $143,000,000 a day, $6,000,000 an hour. If toyota was creating jobs as a rule would the trade deficit persist? I can go on and on but Toyota and the like is killing this country over time.
