    Bottom line - the huge Toyota complaint supposedly was that plugins charge to slow - a la - Toyota's ad claiming - plugin are only for those people that have 4 hours to "waste". I never considered my 9 hours at work, "time to waste" as Toyota's ad calls it. Anyway this record run makes it evident that such smear ads were in fact, the BS that they facially already looked like.
