    • ]]>     Toyota pushed back yesterday, and hard.  They say that Dr. Gilbert, who worked with ABC News to show the unintended acceleration problem with a Toyota Avalon, falsified his results.  They tested several different makes and models, and found that Dr. Gilbert’s modification caused all of them to accelerate out of control.  The kicker: in Toyota’s tests, none of the other manufacturers’ cars had any error codes in their computers either.  Very compelling evidence, and I hope someone gets to the bottom of it soon.  Click past the jump to see the video.
