Word this morning is that it will also add another 1000 jobs when you add in the suppliers.

While California is having a garage sale, Texas is producing more jobs.

"This announcement reflects the depth of the ties between Toyota and Texas while underscoring the strength of our state's workforce and job climate," Governor Rick Perry said.

No kiddin'....

Wonder what 16 term rat atheist Rep. Pete Stark has to say about Toyota picking up their marbles and leaving Fremont for San Antonio? Crickets.... The East Bay needs a reality check, pronto.

What is happening to California? That’s the second major auto plant this month!

Reality check:

First, Toyota could not keep both plants open given the volume of the Tundra and Tacoma.

Second, if you build pickups....build them in Texas because that state/region buys more pickups than any other.

Third, the Corolla is made in Canada, so the California plant was pointless and outdated.

Fourth, who wants to keep a plant open in the most car-hostile state in the nation?

Good! I hope California suffers for all the disasters that the state has placed on the rest of the country.

.....on-site suppliers will also be adding new jobs,......

Conversely, California will loose another 1,000 jobs of vendors.

These will be across the board and include all types of administrators, clerks and office types. The California companies will just be gone.

To add to that, a story came out in the houston comical that Boeing is looking to put in a production line for the new 787 airliner in San Antonio. SA is about to boom over the next couple of years. Say what you will about governer good hair, but the proof in in the pudding. Our state is growing despite the intentional economic destruction being driven by the dimrat party.

I guess I will be the one to say it first-—I’m already sick of Californians moving to Texas! I wouldn’t mind it at all if they would appreciate what we have here—but they want things just like they were back home. They are trying to turn this state blue!

Fremont seemed like a poor location considering the location of most parts facilities are in the central US.

California will just raise taxes to comphensate for the loss of the Toyota plant. Its libtards answer to everything.

(Maybe CA thought that was a toy Yoda plant that was leaving.)

Toyota said its too early to tell the size of the investment or the number of new jobs it will create.

Toyota announced earlier today that it was shutting down it's New United Motor Manufacturing Incorporated facility in northern California

It's sad when you have a hard time getting through an article due to its errors.
