With the economy the way it is, imo spend the money where the profits stay here.
most of toyota's cars that are sold here in the US are now built here. they have manufacturing facilities in the united states. if it gets built here, it helps out the economy because it is producing jobs and paying american workers. thus, it helps our gross domestic product, so the profits do stay here. where they get counted in japan's economy is in the GNI (if i remember correctly), but we keep the money in the united states.
an 06+ 4 door tacoma 4x4 is the only truck i would get right now. its not toyota's, or any other foreigh automakers, fault that american automakers dont make competitive products, the dont have a midsize truck to compete with the tacoma or frontier.. im all about keeping the big three in buisness, but they gotta meet us half way.
foreigh cars used to be crap, nobody bought them. now the since the tables have turned, we have to do the same to compete: build a good product.
