      Toyota quality started when Dr. Deming came to Toyota to help with quality.
      TQMC Total Quality management control.
      I discovered the same process on my own and found out 20 years later that he beat me to the punch
      I increased my production by 250% over the years as well as the quality of my work.
      It's worth looking up TQMC. It can br applied to every aspect of your life.
      It's not hard to learn and practice. I went from 70 shop hours commission per week up to 200 hours per week completed shop hours commission work.

Also, because of air bags and gas pedals, Scotty fails to mention that Toyota had the largest car recall in history. And people were killed by sudden acceleration because of garbage throttle controllers. Remember that? Hardly quality.

      One of the main reasons I settled on this vehicle was because they are made in Japan.
      You cannot get better, more consistent build quality or reliability than this.
      It is such a huge factor when you understand the difference between their cultural mindset regarding individual workmanship standards VS the entitled, North American union employee workers' mindset (even if its' from Toyota), and an abused, third world slave laborer's mindset.
      Expect excellent reliability, with very little maintenance.
      Averaging only 4500 miles, 7000 km a year on my daily commute through steep hilly terrain with the odd road trip, I just need an oil change once a year.
      Had to get the 2018 CX-5 when another driver ran a stop sign and my 2014 CX-5 was written off (still drove perfectly fine after the accident).
      With the 2014 CX-5, at only 48000 miles (77000 km), I've only ever had to replace the brakes (less than a month before it was written off).

It's body had absolutely no curve appeal or character so I would be hesitant to believe it's the aesthetic progeny of the Celica. It may have had the same engine, drive train etc as the Celica (I don't know what the TC's had in them), but then, so did the Corolla and others. I've even bought Yaris parts to replace parts on my Celica, and I recently replaced my oem 1zz engine, with a 1zz from a Corolla. So, if Toyota just mix and matches it's library of parts to build their makes and models as they do (which I've discovered through experience) Then my thinking is that the Celica (at least the GT) is mostly about sporty aesthetics more than being the sum of it's constituent parts. The TC looked like a two door loaf of bread. There was nothing sporty looking about it. Now, the GTS Celica had a 2zz Yamaha engine which was a little better than its 1zz counterpart and that engine was also used in the Lotus Evora. So that Celica was sportier, but even with that, the drive train was largely the same except the GTS had rear brake calipurs and rotors.

      A friend of mine (an aircraft engineer) had an MX5 for years. Then he thought he would buy the same thing in a BMW. For different reasons he was totally disappointed with the BMW and went back to an MX5. He loves it. I have never owned a Mazda but I am now on my second Lexus. The SC300 was a much better car than the current RX330, but with her bad hip the SC300 became impossible for her to get in and out. Shame.

Which got me thinking, a car can last you a long time only you as the owner takes care of the car. Granted some company brands make crappy transmission but not ever transmission they make ends up messing up. I've noticed it only happens when the owner isn't maintaining service on the vehicle and sadly it's mostly young people. Please make sure you do your maintenance in time or as soon as possible, it can prevent accidents and it can prevent you from buying a new motor, transmission or another car

For both S1 and S2 RX8s though, they're cars that are meant to be loved by their owners, and as such need owners that love them and care for them. The number of RX8s on the market that aren't neglected by their owners seem to keep getting rarer and rarer these days.

    I agree. Mazda’s are good from my experience. I have a 2010 Mazda3 with 140,000 miles on it, and it is a very reliable and dependable car. It needs some work done to it but it still drives and handles very well.

    You forgot to mention big problems with oil burning on Toyota models from roughly 2007 to 2011. Probably too old for most people to buy, but it is a big problem. My 2010 Prius burns oil like crazy, has done so since 150,000 miles (now has 220,000). Smog compenants are starting to fail because of soot buildup. Still Toyota is my favorite brand, just something to watch out for.

    nice to see a lot of mazda owners here. it truly is a great carmaker. I drive a cx-9 after previously owning a 2014 mazda 6. The reliability, technology and design plus the relatively affordable price is hard to beat. Glad I made the right choice sticking with Mazda.

    Went to a KIA dealer to see a SUV. The salesman showed me that I would have to pay a $5,000 additional "Market Upgrade" fee because of the semi-conductor shortage. On top of a $33,000 MSRP, this was a deal breaker. Must be with the rest of Auto-makers.
    Maybe if you buy last year's model, there is no such "fee".

    • @ervinveras1906
      @ervinveras1906 2 роки тому +1

      then buy a Subaru. the Subaru company sent a message to all the dealers to stop doing that. kia dealers were doing that before the shortage was in the news. they were doing it because the telluride was so popular that they did not spend a week in the dealer lot. and now they are blaming the shortage. and let me tell you something you do not want to be in the situation that you have to buy a engine for that Telluride.omg. kia sell the vehicle for less but they make it up with the parts. I own a Kia Optima. if I sold that by the parts I am going to make a fortune.

    Like 6 years ago my mom decided to buy a new car and I knew nothing about cars at the time, but I picked out a Mazda CX-5 for her and Im very very happy about that (considering my lack of knowledge at the time) she absolutley loves it, its super robust, and since everyone began copying the design still looks newer than most new cars🤣

    Scotty, I love your channel. But I drove a tow truck for many years, and yes, Japanese cars their engines will run forever (unless the timing belt breaks) however, they would out last the bodies. Japanese car bodies would rust out too quickly for me. My experience in towing, only the Japanese cars broke in half from a collision. Not too cool. But keep up the good work. 👍👍

      As a new Englander we learn very quickly to oil undercoat our cars. Yearly. No matter what brand. Do that faithfully, and they do not rust. Including early Japanese models. if you don't, the salt on the roads here will eat an Abrams tank I think. lol

      Doesn’t that make them safer though? Cars are designed to crumple in an accident. It’s the rigid American cars that wouldn’t have a scratch after an accident, but people inside would have more injuries.

    I've hated Mitsubishi for ever but doing research on them has shown they are one of the cheapest vehicles to maintain over it's lifetime and are actually pretty reliable. The warranty is also great, because the trust their cars.
