DownChelsea:Rava 4, have they finally made them with 4 wheel drive? That's a corrolla on stilts posing as an SUV. |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:39pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley: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? Imagine a rav4 having more equipments than an e class. A sadly true story |

DownChelsea: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. |

DownChelsea: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 |

DownChelsea: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. |

DownChelsea:you don't even have a clue, I'm in that industry don't need to read, what you heard or read was BMW bough ROlls Royce and you 4got to read what they meant Let me educate you a little bit, BMW increased their stake in Rolls Royce to 10% on its Marine and Aerospace Engine group from 2% so what are you talking about you are not allowed to own more than 15% as an external body in rolls Royce. |

DownChelsea:DownChelsea, are you saying you don't know Toyota made the Rava 4 as a compact SUV? |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:42pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley:what class are you? How can you say a luxury car is merely a rebadged mainstream car with luxury features. Ain’t you daft? |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by BadBradley: 3:44pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
erico2k2:DownChelsea is as dumb as Okorocha's statue and as bold as a motor park ticket tout. |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:44pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley:it’s class is debatable arguable. Many would call it a compact crossover “strictly”. |

maynation: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! |

rationalmind: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 |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by BadBradley: 3:45pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
DownChelsea:yes, they are. I know it's hard for you but so is the truth. Rebadged and called Lexus and given more leather chairs. |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by BadBradley: 3:46pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
Dumbass DownChelsea doesn't even know rava 4 is an SUV loooooolz. Cheap internet and its uneviable power of debris hurling. |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:48pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley:can you answer this question for me. What does a mercedes s class have that a toyota avalon doesn’t have? Pls answer me, so that I can bring lexus in. PLEASE ANSWER ME. I ASKED FOR A REASON, DONT BE SCARED. The list is endless. Just list dem |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by erico2k2(m): 3:48pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley:kai 9ja Una get bad mouth, I have never heard this B4 ![]()

| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:48pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley:coming from an organism that calls a rav4 a corolla. When they have nothing in common |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by adanny01(m): 3:48pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
erico2k2:Thats everything under Daimler Ag |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by BadBradley: 3:48pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
DownChelsea:it's an SUV. Stop docking. What do Toyota call it? What do reviewers call it? You're beyond shocking. |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by BadBradley: 3:49pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
DownChelsea:do the Rx 300 has anything in common with a Camry? She doesn't even know about cars or anything, you're just recycling what your yahoo boyfriend told you about cars ![]() |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:49pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley:It’s time to make you look even more stupid. What does an s class have that an avalon doesn’t have |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by erico2k2(m): 3:50pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
DownChelsea:YOU ARE SERIOUSLY ASKING THIS QUESTION ON A PUBLIC FORUM ONLINE ![]()
|
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:50pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley:yes. Produced by the same parent company. That’s all. What does an s class have that an avalon doesn’t have? There are alot. Just list them for me. I’m going somewhere with this |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:51pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
erico2k2:if you are wise you know where I am going to. And you will know why he is avoiding the answer. If you’re not wise, I’ll help you. I’m trying to address the “rebadged with leather seats” arguement |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by erico2k2(m): 3:53pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
DownChelsea:I guess I'm not that wise then, I'm keen to see where U are going ![]() |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:54pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
erico2k2:exactly. But you rushed to show your stupidity. Chill and let him answer. Of course I know that the two cars ain’t in the same category. But only a fool would say a lexus is a rebadged toyota with leather seats. |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by BadBradley: 3:55pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
erico2k2:that dripping pussy no get shame. A front wheel bus they call Avalon. The fool can as well ask what does a Tecno csnon air 12 pro has Samsung S10 doesn't have? |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 3:56pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley: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. Jokers everywhere! ![]() |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by erico2k2(m): 4:00pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
DownChelsea:Nahhhhh I'm not taking that frm you besides stop throwing ur dummy outta the prawn and name-calling stick to the argument raise ur points not ur childishness by name callings! some of us nor B ur mate 4 any level! |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by DownChelsea(f): 4:02pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
erico2k2: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 |
| Re: Is Toyota A Better Company Than Mercedes? by adanny01(m): 4:03pm On Feb 24, 2020 |
BadBradley: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.
