Thanks for the test and the amusing post on it.  But you left out the one 
major factor of the problem.  Your Ford is not part of the recall.  That 
is the problem.  It's these vehicles, for some reason(and it's becoming 
clearing that it seems Toyota is skipping the FBW override) that those 
cars are NOT stopping under this condition.
