Tiger and Toyota:
Both examples of “pride comes before the fall”.
Hubris gets you in the end. With the cuts in education, Greek Mythology is taught much anymore.
Oops!
The parking lots in LA are filled with Toyota,Honda,BMW and Benz.Not a red,white and blue chasis in sight.Americans are really stupid but they aren’t stupid enough to buy American cars.I’ve driven a Toyota since 1993 and wouldn’t trade it for a new Cadillac.
Just a side note, Hondas, Toyotas, Kias, and Hyundais are also made in America, most Fords are made in Canada, the small Chevys are made in Mexico, and the new Buicks are made in Germany.
Both my Toyotas were made in Tennessee. So was one previous. Many GM parts were (and are) made by Toyota plants in the US. Note that Southern senators had no interest in helping to bail out the Big Three – they had plenty of Japanese factories.
dtrout, you could have just as easily pointed out that the Japanese cars made in the USA are doing fine because the companies aren’t held hostage by self-interested unions.

The only way this cartoon could be worse is if that was Tiger Woods he was running down
Still I have to admit I love the look on the other guys face.

Meanwhile, I got a top-of-the-line 2010 Prius for less than the dealer inventory price.
Every cloud has a silver lining….

No wonder Buicks are an arm and a leg…and ugly too!

Yeah, go to any Toyota dealership and read right on the window, many of them are made in TN or AL.

Dodge=Canada, Ford=Mexico. Chevy=Canada- interesting development, and description where all those blue collar “American” jobs went.

Yeah, when I buy a new car, the most important factor I consider is how unionized the manufacturer’s employees are.
