Quote:What a load of crap! Outside of the USA Toyota all but owns the pickup market and American pickups are virtually unheard of. But then again you are based in good old red-neck, republican heartland Texas, I wouldn't expect you to say anything else, especially about Telsa given that Texas is one of the main states opposing direct sales/propping up dealerships!
How many full-sized Tundras does Toyota sell overseas? They probably sell a bunch of Tacomas.
Do you think that, just because I live in Texas, I am not knowledgeable about the rest of the automotive industry?
Why are you insulting me? Why are you painting all Texans with such a broad brush? I'm a Libertarian if you must know, and my neck hasn't been red in 20 years. You must be a very small man to think that one person out of 30 million shares the views of all of his peers... I see Teslas on road in home town several times a week, I have nothing at all against the company or the technology, I just think that Musk is being foolish by trying to circumvent the dealership distribution model. And YOU are being foolish by thinking that all Texans think or act the same way. Texas has 4 million more people than your entire country, you'd be surprised at how many different cultures have a significant presence here.
I don't know if it's because you feel like you can be as big of a dick as you want on your little private forum, or some sort of personal failing, but I find your posting style rude and combative. I'm not Rollo. If anything, he's been the polite one in this thread.
