1) don't hire diversity, inclusion, and equity. Hire based on merit. 2) fund a bunch of non-unionized startups to design your vehicles and eventually to rebuild your production facilities 3) do NOT piece together the cheapest parts every year into a frankencar. Instead, vertically integrate and control all aspects of manufacturing that you can. 4) DO incrementally improve your cars every year and increase their reliability as much as you can cost-efficiently. 5) do NOT put a bunch of prone-to-failure bullshit in your cars - only technology that is proven.

Toyota makes shit loads of money with this formula. The resale value of their vehicles is twice that of most American vehicle makers. This allows them to charge more for new cars, because they retain their value. TLDR: don't sell cheap bullshit thrown together by jewish bean counters, actually develop products over years.

Case in point. I have two Toyotas 1 is 12 years old, the other is 6 years old. No plans to replace them anytime soon. My plan is to watch Toyota very closely to see if they start phasing out pure gas powered vehicles. If they do, I will buy the last 100% gas powered vehicle.

They are going to fully move to hybrids eventually, but they do hybrids better than anyone else. They are not betting on full EVs, because they do not make any sense except as a city car with charging infrastructure that doesn't exist.

That is my plan as well.

I did some research and it appears Toyota has said they plan on eliminating gas vehicles by 2040. That means we have about 16 years left. I'm going to bet by 2039, they'll probably only have a single model left that uses gasoline.

I suspect that vehicle will be the Land Cruiser. It is the only model Toyota services globally.

Toyota is planning and betting on Hydrogen power.
