This is the talk section, so we do let a certain amount of OT stuff go on. Anything that truthful that degrades another car-maker is usually ok LOLWhat does this have to do with a 2005-2009 Mustang?
Whats really really ironic that you mention this recall that TOYOTA took it upon themselves to do this for their customers safety. They didnt wait on the government to issue the recall for them.
The real ironic part of this is when this was released last Friday, My Toyota dealership had our biggest day yet for car sales. We had 120 customers come through and 40 new and used car sales.
Please keep up the publicity.
Toyota has always been known for reliability,hopefully they can stay this way.I know people with 4runners and tacomas with well over 200k

eh not so much who drives em old people..
and anything will last ..treat it right maintain it ..it will last forever...i and 200k thats a breakin period i seen a fords with double + that
First off...I LOVE my Mustang, and am not into bashing any car company....they all have their good points and their problems...
I have owned MANY cars and trucks from MANY different manufacturers.
My last truck was a 1995.5 Toyota Tacoma. I drove it daily, as well as thrashed it hard offroad almost every weekend. It has been buried in mud, driven through rivers, bashed against rocks and trees, and when I traded it in it had over 230,000 miles on it. The only thing that ever went wrong with it is it blew the head gasket, and that was because the belt came off and it overheated while mud running. And it still ran just fine with no loss of power. The 2.7L 4 cylinder engine was one of the most powerful (for the size) and most reliable engines that I have ever had.
Yes, Toyota vehicles have had some issues as of late. The rusting frames being one, and the throttle by wire being the latest. But, Toyota has voluntarily taken care of these at a HUGE expense. They bought back 12 year old vehicles for 1.5x KBB, which is UNPRECEDENTED in the auto industry. And for the record, no Japanese built vehicles were affected by these recalls. They were all failures of parts that were farmed out to American suppliers. The defective part in the sticking throttle recall is made in canada by an American company called CTS.
And have you looked at the list of TSBs for the Mustang? The list is huge, and many of these problems should NOT be a TSB, but a recall! Water leaking into the passenger compartment in model year after model year, and Ford not fixing the problem, and making the customer foot the bill is NOT acceptable.
So, go ahead and flame away...but Toyotas are still some of the most reliable vehicles out there, which is why I bought a '90 Toyota 4x4 for a winter beater/offroad rig.
