I'm not so worried about the company staying afloat, I just want to know that they'll continue making their manuals available.
I hear ya. I didn't mean any disrespect. I'm just sick of being ignored or blown off by the local Toyota dealers because I have an "old car". I'm sure as long as people are willing to pay the inflated price for their manual, Toyota will keep printing them (at a handsome profit).
You'd think that they could show a little more effort, even if MKiii's are 20 years old.
These were expensive cars when new, and they certainly didn't mind getting big bucks for them back then, but now if you need something a little hard to get, you get the bum's rush.
Hell, they never officially copped to the BHG situation, and that was clearly a factory defect.
Maybe it's better in some places, but in Los Angeles area, this is the way it is more times than not.
I blame Toyota Corporate. Shit rolls downhill. Still, it's a great car, just lousey factory and dealer support
