Nothing like the possibilities of massive economies of scale. There's a reason Toyotas are such good values.
- KirillPanov 6y agoWut? Toyotas are not "good value" because they're cheap -- just look at the prices for new Toyota Tacomas! They're a good value because of the exceptional engineering, and they sell at a premium because of it. People need to stop drinking this stupid "scale is all that matters" kool-aid.
