and don't buy Corollas! My company has been building Corollas in the US since 1984 (Toyota's first plant in North America) and they are shutting us down. We are the first plant closure in Toyota's history, and also Toyota's only unionized plant, too...
"Toyotas sold here should be made here!"
I'm getting married two months from now - and Toyota is pulling the plug on my job. They aren't offering us jobs at other plants. The UAW has given lots of concessions to the company over the last year, lawmakers have approved tax breaks; and despite all the sacrifices and hard work, Toyota decided to screw us over.
Because of this, I've decided that I will NEVER buy a Toyota. Their actions will surely crush our local economy. I cannot support a family on unemployment checks. If/When I find a new job, I will not let that money go to support Toyota any more.
Thanks for listening to me on my soap box,
-Chris
