Automotive News: Recall of the “Moose”

I got custody of the 2003 Toyota Sequoia in the divorce and I was very happy about it. My daughter called it the “Moose” cuz we could put 37 kids and a VW in the back of it. I reluctantly sold it a few weeks ago. It was a sad day in our family.

A couple of weeks ago, I heard about the recall for 2003 Sequoia’s. It was a minor driving issue, but got lots of press because of Toyota’s other recent recalls. I drove that truck up and down the mountain to 7 Springs hundreds of times and never had a problem. There was a time that I never thought that I’d own (let alone defend) a Japanese vehicle, but that was one great Moose.

I replaced it with a GMC Denali and I have to say that I kinda like the GMC. It has lots of gadgets and it’s a beast. But, it’s no Moose!

What’s your feeling about the Toyota recalls and how they have handled them? Shout back and let me know.
