During my auto industry career I had two bosses who ruled through fear. I get it, some underlings are susceptible to that style and it winds up destroying their effectiveness. I hope it doesn't consume you, too.

Strange that I recall you suggesting in one of the COVID threads in the beginning that the models might be too pessimistic and it turned out you were right.

Yet now you're ignoring the fact of increasing Toyota sales every week this month. It isn't faith, it's innovative, hard working people throughout the Toyota system from the boardroom to the dealership lot attendant.

I'm not saying the sales increase is a trend yet, but senior executives have enough confidence to proceed with factory reopening May 4th where possible.

And when they run out of stock?

I also truly question those "sales" numbers anyway.
