Does anyone work for Toyota?

If so, what do you do for them?

I do. I work at the plant in Cambridge Ontario where the Corolla, Matrix and RX are built. The FT-86 will be my first Toyota.

I used to be a lot-attendant at the local Toyota dealership!


Actually knew ~ 20x more about Toyota's than the salesmen.

They always made fun of my AE86. Wondered when I'd finally sell it, get something nicer, etc.

And I hope you just laughed at them while you walked away.

I used to be a car detailer for the dealership (new and used vehicles). I drove almost every car at the time. From hummer to s2000. God, I missed those days! those salesman are a bunch of jerks, btw! I knew cars more than them!
