Toyota should be paying ME

I bought my 4runner back in 04 and have since been very happy with it, so much so that my Mom decided she wanted one. About a year after I got mine she sold her audi TT and bought a white 05 Limited V6. My Dad was still driving his 2000 blazer and started to hate it compared to the runner, so about a month ago he bought a Shadow mica 08 Sport V8. Then my sister decided her 98 audi A6 was on its last legsand didnt want to spend $$ on repairs. So following suit she bought a silver 07 Limited V6 about 2 weeks ago. Now the men both have V8 sports, and the women both have V6 Limiteds.

When my parents were looking for my moms my dad asked if he cared that they copied the car I had. I said of course I dont mind, BUY ONE...but i never had any idea it would go this far. Thats everyone in my family now driving a 4runner because they all liked mine and knew it was a good buy. At least we all have different colors and even managed to all have different rims on them. The rumor is now that my brother in laws parents might get one as well.

Now to the topic of the post, the way I see it is toyota should cut me a check for selling them all cars, its not like the dumbass salesman had anything to do with it. ;):

I would post pics of all of them but getting everyone together at once is a rare occasion.

Wow, Toyota should!! The 4runner is truly a great reliable SUV...IMHO, by far, the best in it's class.

That would be a sight to see!

You deserve some type of commission. If they were all purchased at the same dealer I would at least tell them. Perhaps they would comp you an accessory or at least a free oil change or two!

Way to go!! You are truly a TOYOTA family. It is would be cool to line up all the 4Runners in your driveway .....

Toyota should give you or your family member a big discount for the next purchase.
 
A pic would be awsome! I thought we were a toyota family with a 4runner, Sequoia and rx300. Your neighbors will think that you guys got a group buy on it! :)

The T4R is just a great vehicle. I wish my C6 Vette was as reliable.!
 
You should write to Toyota. I bet they'd like to read this story instead of someone complaining about sulfur or a broken wheel stud :bash:

Us too. We have had 3 camrys, 1 ES300, and our current rx300, sequoia and 4runner. And my aunt has a camry. Just too reliable to change manufactures.
 
I have "sold" 3 toyotas in the last year!!!

Or rather, I've convinced 3 people to go Toyota instead of their other choice.

I think I'd be a great salesman, but... I'm not slimy.. so no go.

It started with a 1990 Toyota truck, great little beast. We have a Mazda and had a Chevy in between. Then my friend got a 2003 Camry and it just snowballed from there. We then got a '04 Camry, '05 Tacoma and '06 4Runner. My friend ended up getting a '07 4Runner after he seen mine. Looking into either a GS350 in the future or a '08 Corolla (if I end up with a long commute).

Bought the Taco and 4R from the same sales rep, the best Toyota rep, or sales rep for that matter!!!
 
:iagree:

Especially when you come from a POS like a 94 Ford Explorer, which was my first car. I know, nasty huh?
