The Week in Reverse

It rocks, it rolls, it turns your iPod's music into a lowrider simulator. Doesn't it make the perfect Christmas gift for William F. Buckley?

Toyota is one of America's most-admired companies, so says Fortune magazine. And they didn't even have to wear tight jeans to win the nod.
