I told you what it is. Imagine a toyota rav4 2020 having more equipments than the 2020 mercedes e class. And that is the reality, sadly!

Worldwide, (even in germany) owners of toyota brands “including the lexus luxury line” are always the “most satisfied” with their cars, AND IT IS NO COINCIDENCE.

Your opinion is your right tho.
Rava 4, have they finally made them with 4 wheel drive?

That's a corrolla on stilts posing as an SUV.

you say you know cars and you call rav4 an suv? Are you not a joke.


The mercedes gla has more in common with the mercedes a class, than the rav4 has with the corolla.

Is mercedes not a joke?

HOW CAN TOYOTA AND LEXUS SHARE THE SAME PARTS? The highest they can share is chasis.

I won’t fight with you. Your ignorance is fighting with you already.
Jeeez!!!! You're truly typing for the crowd or you're a bamboozled ignoramus. Prado and Lexus 470 share same chases and engine and suspension parts as do Camry and Lexus ES 300.

Listen, a Lexus is a rebadged Toyota with more leather. Hurting but truth.

They actually share a whole lot of parts. An Avalon shares a lot of parts with the Lexus ES same as the Highlander and Lexus RX

The kid is so ignorant. Blame the Media and musicians. Naira Marley and the likes. There was a time they believed range Rover was the biggest thing. Then was another time venza was reigning. Now it's the turn of Mercedes. Let them enjoy while it lasts.

it’s class is debatable arguable. Many would call it a compact crossover “strictly”.
Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by adanny01(m):

Firstly, If I didn't learn from my Kazeem where then would I learn? From medical school?
If I kept visiting my Kareem with the substandard Honda I bought, am I not expected to ask questions why the Honda was the 2nd worst thing on earth after the devil? That is about that.
Secondly, the first time I had this experience with my ball joint was right in front of my church why I was trying to turn in and the embarrassment alone was haunting.
I spent above 30k just that day alone if not more. I only laid emphasis on ball joint because that is off course the only name I will never forget. No way I could remember all that he listed to buy but I spent above 30K just that Sunday and then he advised I should be replacing it periodically. And off course several other faults were developing along the line. That is that.
Thirdly, can a Nigerian file a law suit against a maker of a car? Nigerians would never, we haven't gotten to that level. And these white guys don't have bad roads like we Africans so they don't majorly experience it like we do. This doesn't change the fact that it is a universal problem. If we had a reasonable platform like the whites to tender our aggressions then Honda would have been a thing of the past. You yourself know that Honda products are known to always have this ball joints/suspension issues. I can swear with my life that you know.

Then again, do you know how many times Toyota has withdrawn a number of their vehicles from the market because people's complained about some mechanical faults?? That is what is expected from a company that is ready to give nothing but the best.

Lastly, No. It wasn't a 2008 accord, it was 2006.

You can continue with your gender discrimination tho. undecided
So if your mechanic says to remove your thermostat, connect the cooling fans directly, tells you that US is cooler and always snowing, you will agree?

I have used the same generation of car with the DC, an older car for that matter, but the only time I spent over 30k on it was the day I bought 4 new tires.

What you should realise is what you've been told severally but you wont listen, a Kazeem can kill you, intentionally or otherwise or put a hole in your pocket. He only does that with your permission. Knowledge is key. The sooner you find a source of technical knowledge, the better for you. Not to say they are useless, infact some of their unorthodox methods work perfectly, but you have to keep them on a leash or live with the hole in your pocket for the lack of knowledge. When you know that you don't know, why the blame? There are cars with real problems, 2008 Accord V6 VCM issue rear brake pad excessive wear, 2003 Honda accord engine vibration and wearing of exhaust cam lobes etc.

I do a lot of DIY repairs, not because I cant afford to pay, but because I know that whatever I do myself, the results comes out 10 times better. Before I do, i read for days sometimes weeks. Whatever I don't have tools for, I rely on a young respectful Kazeem with the experience to do what I don't know and to obey my instructions when required. I teach him and he teaches me. He still insist that ambient temperature in the US is far lower to Nigeria. How can I make him understand?

By the way, buy a brand new car and you can have the chance to sue. Toyota is not aware you are a customer!

And that is what makes them popular, the ability for you to source for one part from multiple vehicles, and this is how they mass produce

now that you cannot answer my question. Can we conclude that you’re an empty barrel already?

I even gave you a spoiler by “admitting” that both cars ain’t in the same category/segment.

I would have made you look like a bigger fool should you have answered, but thanks to your lack of gut
Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:58pm On Feb 24, 2020
A kid came in here and said a lexus is a rebadged toyota with more leather seats.

I decided to nail him by asking what an s class has that an avalon doesn’t have(which obviously is alot), and he kept mute.

obviously. It shows that we are not mates. It really shows. Besides, taking the truth is something you have a choice on. You foolisly concluded that I was implying that the s class and avalon are the same category, without stopping to think

BTW, if you also believe that a lexus is a toyota with mere leather seats. You can step in and answer my question for your friend. What does an s class have that an avalon doesn’t .

Pls don’t be like him, answer me

Hey guys calm down.

Yea Prado and Lexus GX470 share the same chasis and 90% of the drive train. However, the justification of Lexus being a luxury brand in the leagues of Benz is exactly what Benz does to their cars to make it luxury.

What are the things benz do, leather everywhere from seats to steering, dashboard to gear selector, expensive sound systems, new innovations, lane depart assist, infotainment screen, park assist, memory seats, you just continue to name it.

All these little things differentiate a luxury brand from an economy brand. That same difference is what puts a Prado and GX470 apart. The same thing that puts the GX 470 close to the ML class.

Sometimes the difference is as little as hand stitched leather!

Look at what someone had to say.
