[identifying-cars-in-posts]

hi! just wanna say real quick that i LOVE your blog, im also a car autistic and its so awesome to finally find a car-centric community that i dont feel out of place in :-)

anyways! im looking to get a new car- i own a 1985 mercedes 380sl named rodney, but shes got a few issues and i dont feel super comfortable using her as a daily driver for an hour commute to/from work right now- and i was wondering if you knew anything or had any opinions about late '90s buick lesabres? i was also looking at honda civics or accords bc i used to drive an accord, but my dad has been hard recommending i get a '98 lesabre :o thanks so much if u get to this, hope ur inbox isnt too full!!

i’m in the same boat with my jeep, love her to death but she’s not particularly safe for anything outside of local driving. those lesabres are mad underrated, those things go forever. a lot of the ones out there are in fantastic shape because they were old people church shuttles more than anything, and there were a ton of them so parts were plentiful, meaning when they do have issues they’re cheap to fix (mostly). if you find a low mileage one it seems like they’re solid! i know at least the roadmaster from that era was pretty tough, and i see those lesabres all the time still, so buick was doing at least something right

“Kazuo…”

Kazuo inhaled sharply, clawing his way into a sitting position, beads of sweat on his brow, “I can get up…” “You've got such…” “Just a kidney infection…” Kazuo struggled to swing his leg around.  Gav touched his shoulder, “Anders will….” 

“No!”

Kazuo's voice was sharp, panting from pain, “I gotta be there, just like you guys, just like Maureen…this is…” Ian felt his forehead, “I think you have a fever…” “I don't care.  I'm going.  I will be there for our son.  This is important…he's graduating from college…” Kazuo winced.

Ian looked to Gav, who looked conflicted.  Ian sighed, “You can't stand, let alone walk…” “Yes I can!” “You didn't let me finish, you stubborn turd…I'll carry you.  I wish we had a wheelchair, but…I know you, and I know I can't dissuade you.” “Thank you…Jesus fuck, this kidney…”

“Alright, let's shower, we gotta get Mo and head to Waco.”

Anders was nervous.

Extremely nervous.

He stared at the cap and gown hanging off the closet door, knowing he'd worked towards this, and with this….he had the credentials to work at an airport.  He knew his dads were proud of him, that grandma Maureen was proud of him.

He wondered if his mother was proud of him, if the father who'd raised him was proud.  He sighed, knowing if they were alive, he probably wouldn't even be here, at this college, ready to become an air traffic controller.  Anders glanced at the clock, knowing he'd have to set out soon - at least he wouldn't have to drive, there were shuttle buses.

He was almost a graduate, and tomorrow he could send out resumes.

“Hello, boys!” Maureen climbed into Gav’s Civic, which they were taking, as it was a roomier vehicle than the Aston Martin.  “Hi, mum!” “Hey, Maureen!” Kazuo groaned, leaning on Ian, who stroked his side.  “Are you okay, Kaz?” “Hnn…hnnn…” His eye was shut, groaning with each breath.

“He has a raging kidney infection,” Gav began driving back towards I-35, “Antibiotics haven't quite kicked in.” “And he's going out all the way to Waco, in the crowd and the heat?!” Maureen gave Ian and Gav a look.  “Oh, we tried to keep him home,” Gav drummed his fingers on the steering wheel, “We really, really did.”

“I’ll be carrying him since he can't walk.  It was a compromise.” “Ian…” “Mum, you know him!  He would have escaped if we left him home.” “Yeah, he'd have hitched up to Waco like a demented version of Lassie Come-Home.” Maureen opened her mouth, thought for a moment, then sighed, “Does he have his meds?”

“In my pocket,” Ian gently stroked Kazuo’s side, “And the BETAcam is in the boot so he definitely won't miss it.  Kazuo buried his face in Ian’s side, feeling like shit.  “Don't worry, love, we’re getting you there.” Kazuo sighed, shutting his eyes.

He knew they’d get him there.

Anders tugged at his itchy robe, gripping his graduation cap.  He was seated in an uncomfortable folding chair, staring at the stage.  He glanced around the expo center, looking for his family.  He didn’t see them, but he knew they were there.

Ian let Kazuo lay across his lap, “Hang in there, big man.  It’s gonna start soon.” Maureen sat on Ian’s other side, Gav next to Kazuo, gently stroking his back.  “Is it like your graduation was?” “Mine was larger, but UT’s a big college.” Maureen scanned the crowd of graduating students, “I can’t pick Anders out…” “Yeah, they all look alike,” Ian leaned over, making Kazuo groan, “Sorry, bub.”  The lights dimmed, Ian propping Kazuo upright, “Alright, here we go.”

Anders stared at the stage, waiting, watching each speaker.  He was nervous - this was it.  After this…

Everyone stood as names began to be called.  Anders was positioned about midway through the group, sweating through his robe.  There was applause, cheering and air horns for each name called.  Anders filed through, getting closer and closer to the stage.  Climbing the stairs.  Kazuo perked up, groaning softly, watching, waiting.

“Anders Larsson.”

Ian, Maureen and Gav erupted into cheers.  Kazuo panted, pulling himself up, “THAT’S MY BOY!” He slumped back against Ian, trying to gather his strength back up.  “Good man,” Ian stroked his hair gently, “Rest now.”  Kazuo shut his eye, the commencement going on.

Anders wove through the crowd outside to find his family, “Hey!  I…I did it…” “Great job!” Gav hugged him tight.  “You deserve this,” Maureen joined in, embracing her grandson.  Anders looked to Ian and Kazuo.  “Good job, lad.  We’re proud of you.” “Lemme…down…” Kazuo struggled, Ian gently setting him on his feet, the black-haired man swaying unsteadily.  “Are you okay, dad?” Kazuo panted, raising his head, staring at Anders.

Kazuo remembered how worried Ian was….

—--

September 30, 2004

The closer it got to 2, the more nervous Ian got.

He paced the kitchen, glancing at the Garfield clock repeatedly.  Kazuo caught him by the arm, “Hey.  Chill.” “Nnngh….can’t…worried…” “I’m here.  We can worry together.” Ian’s gaze flicked to him, Kazuo giving him a genuine smile.  “You’re not alone.  We’re gonna be parents.” “Am I…going to be a good dad?” Ian leaned on Kazuo.  “You’re gonna be the best dad.” Ian offered up a small smile, “And you?” Kazuo pulled him into a tight hug, “I’ll be the best dad with you.”  The doorbell rang, both men perking up.  Kazuo grinned,

“Let’s go meet our boy.”

—--

 “Kid��.you did it.  You finally did it…” He stepped forward, Anders catching him.  “Dad?” “Just my kidney…won't stop me…Anders…” Anders held him carefully., concerned, well aware of how fragile Kazuo’s health could be.

“I'm so proud of you.  I'm so fuckin’ proud of you.  I couldn’t be more proud of you if I tried.  Six years you’ve been my kid, everything leading…up…to this…” Kazuo winced, “You’re all grown up now.  And…it’s time to come home, get you a job.” “I will, dad.  I gotta pack up my stuff.” “I’d help..if I could, but right now, I’m…” He winced, “Damn…” “It’s okay, dad.  You want food?  We can go get something good.”

“Sounds…nice…” Kazuo sighed, slumping back, Ian catching him.  “Where do you want to go, boy?” “Probably somewhere with booths so he can sit comfortably.  Texas Roadhouse?” “Yeah,” Gav thought, “I think something coated in cheese might perk him back up.” “C’mon, boy, we took the Civic.  It’ll be tight, but better than having you shuttle all the way back to the dorms,” Ian carefully picked Kazuo up.

“Yeah, lemme just…” Anders peeled off his robe, which Maureen took, “Gotta drop that off later.” “We’re all proud of you,” Maureen put her arm around him, “You’ve grown into a fine young man.” “Yeah, now it’s time to find yourself a partner and give us grandkids,” Gav teased.  “That…might take a while.  Sorry, dad.” “Ah, look how long it took me,” Ian grinned.  “Not helping!” Anders laughed, glad to be surrounded by his family.

His life was right on track.

Brief History of Toyota Motor Corporation

  The Toyota Motor Corporation is a world-renowned car manufacturer that has been producing some of the most reliable vehicles since its inception on August 28, 1937. Founded by Kiichiro Toyoda, the company initially produced only a few cars per month but quickly grew to become one of the most successful car manufacturers in the world. As one of the largest automotive companies in the world, Toyota Motor Corporation's expansive vehicle line-up consists of 14 models.

Toyota’s Early Years

The Toyoda Model G Automatic Loom was created in 1924 by Sakichi Toyoda. The Toyota Production System later incorporated the jidoka principle, which states that when a problem arises, the machine automatically stops. A modest production line was used to construct looms. The automatic loom invention was sold to the British business Platt Brothers in 1929, providing the seed money for the creation of automobiles. Toyoda Automatic Loom Works formed an Automobile Division on September 1, 1933, and formally proclaimed its plan to start manufacturing automobiles on January 29, 1934, both under the guidance of Kiichiro Toyoda, the founder's son. On August 28, 1937, the name “Toyota Motor Co.” was officially registered as a separate entity from Toyoda Automatic Loom Works Ltd. Under Kiichiro’s leadership, Toyota developed revolutionary production methods that would become known as the “Toyota Production System." This system combined both human and machine labor to achieve greater efficiency and cost savings than traditional mass production methods at the time. By 1941, 70% of all cars sold in Japan were Toyotas – making it by far the leading car manufacturer in Japan at that time. In 1945, following World War II, Toyota began producing larger vehicles for export to America under its new brand name – Lexus – to compete more effectively with American automakers like General Motors and Chrysler Corporation. At this time, only luxury cars were exported from Japan; however, this changed when Honda Motors began exporting smaller cars to America starting in 1968 (the same year that Honda introduced their Civic model). This shift forced Toyota to focus on developing smaller cars for export as well to remain competitive.  

Post-War Success

The story of Toyota wasn't always one of success and recognition. In the aftermath of World War II, the company was struggling to survive, facing a ravaged economy, limited resources, and a scarcity of skilled labor. Yet despite these challenges, Toyota managed to rise from the ashes, transform itself into a global powerhouse, and set a new standard for excellence in the automobile industry.  

Toyota Production System. Photo by Avi Alpert. Flickr.   Embracing Lean Manufacturing One of Toyota's key strategies for success was the development of the "Toyota Production System," a groundbreaking approach to manufacturing that focused on maximizing efficiency, reducing waste, and empowering workers. This system, also known as "lean manufacturing," helped Toyota streamline operations, eliminate unnecessary costs, and create higher-quality products at a faster pace than its competitors. By instilling a culture of continuous improvement and empowering employees to identify and solve problems, Toyota was able to achieve levels of productivity and quality that were previously thought impossible.

Kaizen is a Japanese term that means "continuous improvement," and it's a philosophy that Toyota has ingrained into its DNA. The idea behind kaizen is that even the smallest improvements, made consistently over time, can lead to significant gains in efficiency, quality, and profitability. Toyota encourages its employees to constantly look for ways to improve their work and the company's processes. By embracing kaizen, Toyota has been able to stay at the forefront of the automobile industry and maintain its position as a leader in innovation and quality.   Customer First Toyota has always placed a high priority on its customers, recognizing that their satisfaction is critical to the company's success. To this end, Toyota has invested heavily in research and development, using customer feedback to inform its product designs and features. It has also established a reputation for exceptional customer service, striving to provide personalized attention and support to every customer. By putting the customer first, Toyota has built a loyal following of customers who trust and value the company's products and services.   Global Expansion Toyota's postwar success was not limited to Japan. The company recognized the importance of expanding its operations globally and set out to establish a strong presence in markets around the world. Toyota began exporting its vehicles in the 1950s and gradually expanded its production and sales operations to countries such as the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom. In the years since Toyota has continued to grow and now operates production facilities and sales networks in more than 190 countries and territories. This global expansion has allowed Toyota to capitalize on new markets, diversify its customer base, and further solidify its position as a world leader in the automobile industry.

Flickr.   Sustainability and Social Responsibility In recent years, Toyota has made a concerted effort to be a more socially responsible company, embracing sustainability as a core value. Toyota has invested heavily in green technologies, such as hybrid and electric vehicles, and has pledged to reduce its carbon emissions and environmental impact. It has also prioritized corporate social responsibility initiatives, such as supporting disaster relief efforts and promoting education and community development. By taking a proactive approach to sustainability and social responsibility, Toyota has demonstrated its commitment to being a responsible and ethical global business leader.

Global Expansion

In 1957, Toyota established its U.S. subsidiary called Toyota Motor Sales USA Inc., making it one of the earliest Japanese companies to expand into international markets. By 1966 they had sold their millionth vehicle in North America and continued to grow throughout South America as well as Europe and Asia over time. In 1984, they established their luxury division Lexus which became highly successful almost immediately after launch.  

Conclusion

Toyota has become one of the world’s leading automobile manufacturers due to its commitment to innovation, customer service, and global expansion. The company has embraced kaizen principles which focus on continuous improvement in order to remain at the forefront of automotive technology. Toyota also places a high priority on sustainability and social responsibility initiatives that demonstrate their dedication to being an ethical business leader. With operations now reaching countries all around the world, it is clear that Toyota’s strategy for success is working - showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon!   Sources: THX News, Wikipedia & Toyota.
