Toyota Production Post COVID

[t0y0ta4R]

I realize this may be a long shot but does anyone know if Toyota's Japanese plants are fully open? I managed to find one article about no work Fridays but maybe my Google search skills are not the best. Toyota to apply brakes at Japanese plants for 3rd month - The Mainichi

My reason for asking is concern about delays in the ordering process if you go that route. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the standard lead is about 10 weeks but suspect it may be much longer given the current enviroment.

Any insight is appreciated.

Was stated last night that Japan never shut down. Only 800 or so deaths. Would be more concerned with the ports in Cali and Mexico.

Be interesting to see what inventory numbers are.

Good find, thanks! Not sure what's up with the scam posts above though.

Yeah, if I'm reading it right, the Tahara plant is working double shifts...not sure if that's catch-up or keep-up though. The good news is that there's PLENTY of Trans-Oceanic capacity to get your order here quick.

Ugh, that's a long time to wait and probably similar to what would be seen ordering a 4R.
