In Canada, CO's and DO's still use the 2007/2008 Toyota Camry models. However, a CO told me a year ago that Georgetown is now switching to the new Chevy Malibu's come the next CO switch... Which the branch was using before the Camrys (unless I am thinking of the Buick Lacross). Anyway they made the switch to the Camry because the old Malibus/Lacrosses were always in the garage (typical Chevy)... but now they want to go back to those crap buckets.
IMO, Toyota wanted to raise the fleet rate they get, and they didn't like that so went to Chevy and they prorably offered them a rate much less than Toyota, but they'll be paying for it soon enough.
I bet GB get Cadillac CTS haha. Or Lexus ES.
EDIT
actually this reminds me, I was playing around in Google Maps using streetview the other day and saw some nice cars convenently parked around 25 Columbia Heights including a BMW and a Camry, and some cars had "For Sale" signs on them. see here

The GB members have fairly new cars to use at their disposal at any time for whatever reason.
They are leased to the WTS. from a JW who does the leasing.
So no payments, no insurance costs, no gas and maintenance costs, its all paid for by the WTS.
This is just but one perk that the GB retains.

I like how this thread is going, no outrageous lies, just facts from personal experiences. When compared to Jame's "Spider", the GB cars pale in comparison.
Benny Hinn is reported to have spent $78k for the "Presidential Suite" each night in Vegas. He had access to a "Stretched Limo" with his Las Vegas revival! We all know very few Traveling Overseers live the push life some high profile preachers live On my wife's side we have a famous preacher out of Silicon Valley who makes almost $1,000,000 a year in various forms of "church compensation". His salary is well over $450,000, housing, food, vacation time, trips, retirement payments made into the "Trust Fund" for a future defined benefit.
Jim Baker is said to have ripped off almost $1 Billion dollars. L. Ron Hubbord ran off with $300+ Million USD.
Jehovah's Witness and Mormon Leadership are frugal with funds, nobody could get away with this rampant waste of funds or fraud. I may not like the way these men teach, yet they are relatively honest with money, unlike other religious frauds (Asa Alan I heard was evil with money).
Good topic, thanks for your honesty, this paves in-roads into "lurkers" minds when we are honest and avoid sensationalism. God Bless you all!

The fact remains that Jesus lived what he preached...
Matthew 8:20
“Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Manhas no place even to lay his head.” New Living Translation (NLT)
But our loving GB live and preach....
Mathew’s 24:47 3 little magic words….Truly I say to ?YOU, He will appoint him over all his belongings.
(all his belongings=$$$)
How contradictory
