He had it completely wrong. Consumer Reports recommends all Toyotas and no GM cars. For the most part, they're apologists for any car made outside the U.S. In my opinion J.D. Power is much more accurate. I worked with them over they years, and they were untouchable at any price. They gave very high grades to GM cars.

Although by the time Consumer Reports does this again, there will be a new round of cameras from Canon and Nikon. Timing is everything. Unfortunately, Consumer Reports, for all their incompetence, holds large sway in the U.S.

I had a fellow in my store the other day going on about how consumer reports was listing Toyotas as just about the worst cars made (why this kind of converstion happens in photolabs is beyond my limited comprehension skills) because consumer reports was putting GMs ahead of everyone else. I asked him what their criteria was, since everything I had heard about Toyota was that they were on par with one piece hammers for reliability.
No answer of course.
I suspect they are teamed up with JD Power, which is another group that seems to have their heads in their nether regions.
