@@masternobody1896 I agree, no Car is perfect but, Toyota has better service and longer warranty than Honda. Toyota offers 5yrs warranty full coverage (vs Honda's 3yrs) and can be extended up to 10 years. Toyota is twice the size of Honda globally and can make cars cheaper than Honda due to the size advantage and therefore offer better interior and finish at the similar competitive price.

Every time Scotty mentions the crappy Chrysler, it hurts: I have a 2012 Chrysler 200S hardtop convertible. It's been fun to drive, but maintenance is killing me; I've had to replace the battery, alternator, main computer, and now it looks like I'll have to do the front end, the bushings in the front control arms are shot & one of my engine mounts is broken. Latest quote is $1800 to get that done. I wish I still had my 1952 VW bug, that engine I could take apart & put back together blindfolded, and the suspension & 4 speed manual were fantastic. It had good A/C too: the floor panels were all rusted out & I got plenty of ventilation! That car cost me $140 in 1971, yes that's all, and I drove it over 7500 miles criscrossing the USA; one tire blowout & one wheel bearing was all that went wrong. I need a time machine, sigh.

But now I have two Toyotas, one a wonderful old 2007 Scion tC with 195,000 miles on it, that is a little rocket, and the other is a 2022 Corolla Cross that is just magnificent, but underpowered and with a somewhat clunky CVT transmission. I would never buy a car with GDI fuel injection and since the Corolla cross has both GDI and MPI, no intake valve problems are anticipated. I’ve always loved GM cars, hated Chryslers, and tolerated Fords, but now would never own anything in the future but a Toyota or a Honda……simply the best cars made. Dr. K.

While I'm not sure about their newer vehicles, pre-1999 Honda drivetrain reliability is off-the-charts incredible. I bought a used 1993 Civic DX in 1995 for $7000. It had 8,000 miles on it. I proceeded to drive it for 27 years before finally giving it away to an acquaintance going through financially hard times this year, who's spouse is going suffering from a terminal disease. In all of that time, I spent roughly $4,000 in repairs/maintenance on it, doing most of them myself. While the rust on the vehicle is significant (thank you, northern winters/salt) it still runs beautifully (or at least still did, when I last saw it two weeks ago), and was averaging 38 mpg as recently as last year when I stopped keeping track of the mileage via Fuelly.

Have had two Odyssey's and currently own a 2013 Accord V6, a 2016 Acura RLX and a 2017 Pilot. All have been nearly trouble-free. All have Honda's 6-speed AT which has been excellent... Flush and change the fluid every 50-60K. The Accord is near 120K... oil changes, filters, tires, brakes, one battery plus the recommended timing belt, serpentine belt and water pump. Still looks and drives like new. I could buy a new car tomorrow if I wanted to, but I have yet to find anything I like better. Toyota builds great cars too, but Hondas are more fun to drive!

I love Hondas. My first car was an 01 Accord EX, it wasn't the infamous 6th gen transmission issues that killed it, it was body shops being unable to find parts and hiking labor up so much my insurance totaled it after a bad winter. I might have kept it if I had a space of my own to repair as I had wanted to see it through to 200k miles, but alas, I'm a single professional in a city. But, my new car is a 2015 Honda Civic EX-L, so..... I'm enjoying the leather heated seats, Bluetooth connectivity, and kept my moonroof, without breaking the bank on costs. My only minor sadness is the trunk space was a downgrade from the Accord, but it'll just mean I'll have to fold the seats down for Costco runs. Cheers for the video!

When I was considering buying a new hybrid instead of rebuilding the engine on my 99 Mustang six, I test drove the Honda Accord Hybrid, and the Ford Fusion Hybrid - both were impressive. On driving, I would have gone with the Ford Fusion, but it was close race. On either I would pull off the "low rolling resistance" tires that were supposed to be top of the line for that class, as they sucked. And I am a conservative driver! I decided to rebuild my engine, as I love my Mustang six, and the price of insurance, sky high registration in California, etc -

Personal preference for me is the Toyotas over the Hondas - for me it was mostly brand loyalty. This is mostly because I have owned more new Toyotas (a 1994 Camry v6, two 1998 4-Runners, a 2001 Lexus Rx300, a 2010 Venza (v6), a 2021 RAV4) than new Hondas (a 2005 Civic and a 2006 Accord). Weaknesses for the Toyotas was I found the transmission to be cold blooded and did not like shifting when cold. The RAV4's AISIN 8-speed transmission finally fixed this issue. Hondas trans were much less cold blooded and a little snappier for shifting. Both Hondas had SOHC engines while the Toyotas all had DOHC engines - I've always been a sucker for DOHC engines. I was particularly impressed with the Civic's rear drum brakes that lasted for the entire time we owned the car (about 10 years - was given to a mechanic family member who still didn't need to do the rear brakes for another couple years). The cars I was least impressed with were one of the 4-runners (one was stolen about a month after purchase and second had such horrible gas milage it had me getting rid of it within 3 years) and the Accord (defective windshield, bad rear stabilizer bar links and and AC compressor all within 4 years). I was most impressed by the 1994 Camry which stayed in my stable a record (for me) 12 years and was handed down to my daughter when she went to college. The Honda Civic was purchased for my daughter after the Camry got t-boned in a parking lot.
