Thanks. There's real value to us (and to the public) in tapping into the consumer-generated media space as an alternative--really as a supplement--to the more traditional mainstream media, the venue for most of our corporate communications efforts since Toyota came into the U.S.market 50 years ago.
The Tundra is the most important vehicle launch for us since Lexus in 1989, and we have the opportunity now to embrace the power and instantaneousness of the web to enhance our launch and post-launch communications. More importantly, as a participant in forums such as
TundraTalk, it gives us a perfect chance to do more listening to real world input/discussions for which it would serve us well to pay attention.
Also, we're trying to take advantage of highly viral sites like YouTube to upload video that might further speed certain messages about the Tundra (
YouTube - 2007 Toyota Tundra "Best in Class")and our other products into the marketplace.
Thanks for creating a nice forum. We look forward to participating.
