Great presentation. Simple, logical, perfect. Looking forward to the next part where you go into more details about the Gap statement, etc. Hope it comes out soon
I was fortunate to be able to tour Yamaha's factory in Japan & Georgia. The people of Japan are humble yet driven. I have a lot of respect for the Japanese people.
Outstanding video and very good explanation as to why Toyota produces the best products in the automotive industry. This method can certainly be applied to many aspects of ones life. Yet another reason why I have chosen to be a Toyota customer and this video reveals why the products they make last so long and are so durable - they are designed with longevity in mind.
Great presentation. I might have paid attention in school if things were presented in a logical fashion instead of being forced to memorize for no apparent reason. Luckily I survived 20 years of rebelling against the "system" and developed a similar system of long and short term goals for myself. No cable tv, no couch and no potato chips, what can I do today to put me in a better place tomorrow?
Thank your very much for this video and informations! Without going into any details, (cuz YuTube and your channel is the wrong place for this) more companies should act and work like Toyota. I see the Toyota Group as a big win for the world. Thank you Toyota for your hard work every day! Thumbs up!
Kaizen applied to Toyota as a company, not just a car manufacturer, presents an operation that provides mobile energy, personalized transport and scalable commercial application of its technology. As energy sources proliferate, populations move to cities and people demand smaller, cheaper local and last mile transportation, cars (EV or ICE) will be the second choice for people looking to move about. Toyota will be there
@@waleedsharaf4524 do you predict a huge depreciation spike for all these over msrp vehicles? Or think it kinda just reset the vehicle market and it'll gradually go down from the peak?
In our household we own 2nd and 3rd gen Tacomas, 2007 and 2021 Tundras, and I can tell you that Kaizen has improve Toyota's profits by consistently removing features every year. screwing customers. 2nd gen Tacoma and the 2007 Tundra are better trucks than the 2021 models. Couple of exlamples, no transmission oil coolers, no grab handles driver sides, etc.
In MBA programs in US, Toyota method is considered stupid because MBA programs only focus on short term profit. Anything that don’t bring in short term profit is considered not smart or stupid. Toyota method is exactly what American business school advice students not to do.
Talking about CHANGE. Yes they change to increase price but not much about technology. Apple/Android auto didn’t available on RX 350 until 2020 while compared to other. And the 350L 3rd row seat is awful with the same body style. What about GX460 its been around for too long despite mpg efficiency.
I don't know where I want to be tomorrow and you're telling me to know where I want to be in 20-25 years? Live life at full each and every day doing good to you and others and time will tell the rest, for sure tomorrow is a mystery, and thank God you're living another day because you don't know when is gonna be the last.
Thank you for your comment - yes we all need to enjoy life everyday and live to the full potential. But this is about dreaming big and aiming big, not so much about where to go in 25 years. It's more about having conceptual and wonderful big dreams that we aim towards... a bit by bit everyday. So it's more about inspiration and moving toward the real dream you have in life. The big dream is not so much a goal, but more about motivation.
I respect Toyota for taking there time with it. I would rather them do that then rush something out that's more likely to crash and burn... literally and figuratively I guess... If that were to happen, then you would criticize them for making a bad product and they need to do better... So... They decide to take their time and just do better ahead of time.
@@chrisp.3461 Meanwhile there’s been multiple major model changes to cars like Camry, etc. Toyota has yet to understand the American truck and SUV market. More room to dream big!
@@everythingpnw Did you even watch David’s presentation?! Dream Big is the goal (stretch target) that Toyota constantly strives for. Yes I have no idea about Toyota. 😏
@@m.romaithi6217 true. He should have said that Toyota loves changes only as long as it's profitable. Keeping the same ancient powertrain can be profitable because there's less research and development but doesn't go quite well with "accepting changes".
@@m.romaithi6217 Nope, 2007 was a better truck, lights in all doors, driver grab handle, seat pockets, two glove boxes, transmission cooler, etc.etc. I know I own a 2007 and a 2021
If your dealer(s) are not satisfactory for some reason, let Toyota know about it directly. If enough people provide concrete reasons, like I did for our local Lexus dealer, they might do something about it.
Still don’t outsell the rest of the market they break also so a refresh is no big deal not impressed overrated overpriced now finally catching up and copying others.

Amazing video and truly excited for the remainder of the series. Much more happy that I own several Toyota vehicles!
More to come! Thank you!

I'm still buying a bike. I need something to put in that new TUNDRA. Good video David.
Great Video. That is why Toyota is number 1 in the world. And that is why I owned nothing but Toyotas and Lexus. Amazing.
The difference is Toyota doesn't need to fight the labor union like GM, Ford and Chrysler.
Came here for cars, stayed for the project management lessons. Waiting for the Agile class next! By the end of the year, we will all earn our MBA's.
Thank you! Maybe I should keep teaching about business strategy and project management stuff!
Very insightful. Well arranged lecture. Merci...🙏🏿
Thank you kindly!
David, very intriguing video👍. Appreciate how you relate this to life matters. 25 yr Toyota vet

Tell Toyota to stop applying “Kaizen” to part designs that have worked for 30 years and now have problems since redesign.

I totally agree with comments below, very informative, and make you think. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Thank you for watching and commenting!
I have used that target saving method to save for cars for decades.
Are there any news if Lexus GX460 will be redesigned for next year?
I'm going to talk about this in the near future... stay tuned
You are a best person to explain me about Toyota plan
Thank you 😊
Most welcome 😊
Thanks !
Can you tell us your take on the semiconductor chip shortage and when it will be resolved.
Sure, let me work on a video for that...

EXCELLENT - Engineering solutions using the scientific method. Understand the problem. Also see ISO9001 and AS9100.
David, still running into road blocks in an attempt to place myself on a list to order a 2023 Toyota 4 Runner. Any suggestions?
That is very interesting
Somebody hurry and scavenge up the towing numbers before I buy a used 6.6 Duramax!!! 😂
Thanks, David! 👍😁

Hmmm?? I teach MBA classes as an instructor and Toyota methods are taught as one of the key business strategies in MBA classes all over the world
Nissan and Mazda have a lot to learn from Toyota.
Toyota needs to kaizen those rear drum brakes
Toyota's big dream of highest profitability is scary if true. No wonder other companies want to copy the method.

When change on the outside exceeds the change on the inside the end is near

The famous Why? game that every five-year-old plays. Keep asking why to every answer. I think it finally ends with world domination.
Big Dream in 2006.... Redesign Tundra in 20 years! 🤣

Well that KAIZEN did not apply on the Tundra for 15 years..
Or most of their vehicles. Lol
You're confusing market share with profitability. Toyota's goal is profit. Profitability was achieved on every tundra sold.
@@ricqik ya but as stated in the video, Toyota culture is all about changing and there was zero change to the Tundra from 2007 till 2021 same truck.

Can GM, Ford, and Chrysler learn something from this video? Or your greedy investor don’t let you? Short term , bad choice mister bad ass americanos!!
So the finally refreshed an overrated and overpriced truck whoop de do.
Still don’t outsell the rest of the market they break also so a refresh is no big deal not impressed overrated overpriced now finally catching up and copying others.
