Sorry, but you're still morons.
For every person like each of you, there's another who's had the same problems with the same VW or Toyota you refer to.
As for the "mileage wars," my father drives a 1995 Chevy van with 325K miles, and still running. And in the national news last year was a report about a Chevy pick up that had just put the ONE MILLIONTH mile on it, and still going. That's 1,000,000 miles. So by your twisted mileage logic, I guess that means Chevy is 3X better than Toyota?
So keep wasting your money on overpriced sales and service. It's just too bad the rest of the country loses along with you.
