4. Well, Toyota did make a lort of money selling vehicles to ISIS

Toyota expects they can sell many cars to the American Taliban as well.

5. Was considering a Lexus

And they are good cars, but I'm turning my attention to Lincoln now.

10. Send them an email

I just did so through their website contact information and let them know that I will be replacing my 08 Yaris this next year. Toyota will not be considered when I start doing my looking.

6. I boycotted them years ago.

Why? I went there as a single woman to buy a car. I asked the man to show me their Tercel. He stood in the door of the show room and pointed out in the parking lot three cars. Couldn’t be bothered to help me. I left and went down the street to The Nissan dealership and bought a new car 🚙 . They don’t just have a political problem they have a problem with single women attempting to purchase a car by themselves.

7. Excellent ad. I can only imagine what's happening in their PR department.

Going to be hard to spin how those donations are a good thing. I’m sure they know that TFG’s base isn’t lining up to but a Prius.

8. I just tried to call the number, and it rings first then goes to busy.

I have 3 toyotas sitting here at my house. And we bought one for our daughter who is out of town. Over the past 45 years, I have put over 350,000 miles on each of 3 toyotas, and I'm about to turn 250,000 on another.

NEVER AGAIN!!!!

I had no idea that toyota was such a political asshole company. I am ready to get rid of my toyotas and find another company. This 45 year relationship is OVER! I wish I'd never given them a penny.

Does anyone know where Honda sits politically?

11. Use the contact email method

through their website. I just sent them one.

9. Give more to Democrats

Here is the dilemma. Toyota gives more money to democrats than they do to Republicons. So if we stop buying Toyota's aren't we hurting those Democrats that Toyota supports and perhaps would no longer support. If they are so bad why did the majority of their donations go to Democrats?

12. the first car I ever owned was a toyota that I loved...

but never again! Thank you, Lincoln Project for getting through to them the only way they actually understand.

13. UPDATE: Toyota just folded like a cheap suit. . .
