John: I live here in the North Eastern part of the United State. Over the years I have seen very few foreign makes be able to last a decade and go 250,000 miles. Cars like Toyota and other makes rust out very quickly when exposed to the chemicals used to melt snow and ice here in Penna.

Give you a good example bought an 1981 Toyota pickup used in the mid 80's. Had the truck about two years had to get rid of the truck because the frame rails rusted out. No problems like that with the Chevy and Ford pickups I have had over the years.

The Japanese have built their share of junk over the years but always seem to have managed to get a free pass.
