I’ve always wonder what kind of car God would drive if he lived here on earth and needed to use human transportation. Would it be an upscale car like a Mercedes, or maybe a very humble car like a Honda Fit? Well, I’ve come to the conclusion that He would drive a Toyota, and more specifically a Toyota Avalon!
The special knowledge came to me from a friend of the family who just came back last summer from a three year stint as a Mission President. He returned driving a fairly new Avalon. When asked about the car, he said the church leases a new Avalon for each Mission President in the United States. It is a three year lease, and after the three years, which coincides with the term of a MP, he can either turn it back in, or pay to buy the car and keep it for himself. This friend also said that the general authorities get leased Avalons, and when one goes to the church office building during the week before General Conference, when they have all the GA meetings, it looks like a Toyota car lot. So for those of you in Salt Lake City this weekend, look out for all the Toyotas!
There are over 300 missions in the US, and probable another 100 GAs in the US that get these cars, so the church leases about 400 cars at any given time. I hope they negotiated a good fleet deal on those leases.
So, now I’m trying to determine what kind of car Satan would drive. Any thoughts? I’m pretty sure he drives an old silver Hyundai that cut me off last week. Only the devil himself could have been driving like that! And the way he smiled at me when I gave him the universal hand sign of displeasure only confirms it!

I’m pretty sure there is reference in the old testament to Gods fiat, but I can’t find it. Fiat owns chrysler so perhaps in America he could drive a chrysler when there.
The Pope drives a fiat.
The missionaries in Australia drive corollas. Do the church have shares in Toyota?
I would have trouble believing God would drive a Toyota. The kind of people who drive toyotas are conformists, they like mediocrity. Not my idea of God.
I am just replacing my Mercedes S, with a Jaguar XF deisel, which will have similar levels of comfort, and use half as much fuel.
Many years ago I saw a white corvette on the DC beltway with the plate “Elohim “
Everyone knows Satan drives a Hummer.
God would drive a used compact car. He doesn’t have the need to compensate for anything.
If it helps, the early Christian church used to cram into a Honda to go to the temple. Acts 2:46: “And they, continuing daily with one Accord in the temple…”
Sensible choice.
As the owner of a 2001 Toyota Avalon, I am feeling doubly confident in the inspiration I receive, now that we know the Avalon is God’s chosen automobile. (too bad church Avalon drivers didn’t consult me when it came to Prop 8).
Other than the time I was driving my kid back from seminary and our Avalon got hit and flipped up on its side, I’ve had zero repairs.
(I’m thinking Satan might drive a truck since I rarely see one that uses turn signals or doesn’t tailgate).
From the Good Omen, we learn Satan’s representative on Earth drives a 1926 black Bentley:
“While it might be typical of the demon Crowley to have all that is cutting-edge and unreasonably priced, there is one thing that he owns that does not live up to his high-tech, sleek lifestyle: a 1926 black Bentley that he has owned from new”
I always thought God drove a Honda and all the references to an Accord in conference seemed to confirm it.
Jesus would not drive a Toyota.
He would go places on foot, because the human feet He created, are meant for walking, and sometimes running……, not just for sitting, or standing, or lying down.
It might take him a bit longer to get where He is going, but that does not matter, for He is our Lord and Savior, who has an eternity to spend with the faithful.
As for Satan, he might drive a big dump truck, always overladen with temptations….
