This Toyota 4Runner Trail Edition is rugged enough and fully equipped for going off-road to hunt, hike, climb or for a day at the shore and is good looking enough to take to the Commodore’s Ball at the Yacht Club or the Ducks Unlimited dinner. Going off-road? In addition to four wheel drive, Westin brush guards, fog lights and running boards (over $2,000 aftermarket cost), it comes with skid plates, a Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS), and increased clearance. For really tough terrain, there is crawl control, downhill assist control and active traction control. And it runs so quiet; you can drive up on many beautiful sights without being noticed. It tows boats and trailers with ease using an integrated tow hitch receiver with both 4-pin & 7-pin connector wiring harnesses.

For a day at the beach or running errands, you get plenty of cargo space, roof rails that will take standard paddleboard or kayak racks, Cargo area lighting w/"tailgating" speaker amplifier feature for outside entertainment, two 120V outlets, and a retractable rear floor that makes loading easy or acts as a picnic table.

The interior projects rugged, functional good looks. No leather and fancy displays. Cloth front bucket seats, -including 6-way manual driver seat w/power lumbar, 2nd row 40/20/40 split reclining fold-flat cloth bench seat, power glass moon roof, manual control for A/C, electronic door locks and windows, AM/FM stereo w/CD/MP3 player, including: SIRIUS XM satellite radio, Bluetooth music streaming wireless technology, (8) speakers. (2) aux audio input jacks, USB Port, 12V DC power outlets, hands free cellular and all of the little storage spots and cup holders you need.

In almost 50,000 miles of driving, most of it highway miles to my hunt camp in Alabama (10 trips @ 3,000 milels per trip), this car, with a 24 gal. tank, averaged 19 mpg which can be measured with the multi-information display for time, fuel consumption, cruise range, temperature and compass. It cruises great at highway speeds using a user friendly cruise control. The front & rear stabilizer bars, front & rear shock absorbers, independent double wishbone front suspension w/coil springs, and power 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes along with a 4.0L DOHC 24-valve VVT-i V6 engine and 5-speed ECT automatic transmission w/OD -including sequential shift mode give you all the power and control you need.

This Irishman really likes the Toyota GT86

Sun, 10 Feb 2013

Okay, okay - by this point in time just liking the Toyota GT86 (Scion FR-S, Subaru BRZ, what have you) doesn't make you special. Even if you're a sort of funny sounding, funny looking Irishman, who probably isn't the most seasoned car reviewer ever, digging the GT86 is not news.
However, if, when you choose to publish your ten-minute-long review, you include exclamatory phrases about your own pubic hair, Ozzy Osborne's drug habit and "gentleman vegetable stuff," well sir, then you'll have our attention.
Don't give up on this video, available down below, after the first couple of minutes, we implore you. The silver-tongued Irishman doesn't really get warmed up until four minutes in, or so. Believe us, it's worth the wait.

4th-gen Toyota Prius production delayed by 6 months

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

If you were holding off buying a new car in anticipation of the fourth-generation Toyota Prius arriving in 2015, your wait might be a little longer. Company insiders are claiming that production of the bestselling hybrid is being pushed back from spring to possibly as late as December 2015. Toyota is reportedly still making alterations to make sure everything is just right before it unleashes the all-important, efficient hatch on a waiting public.
According to unnamed sources speaking to Automotive News Europe, the main reasons for the delay aren't completely known. It's believed the engineers are still working on making the hybrid powertrain more efficient and improving the new Toyota Global Architecture modular platform. The insiders claim that the final production prototype of the Prius is still under development, and it might be November before it's finalized. From there, it usually takes around 12 months to tool up and for the first car to roll off the assembly line. It would be another year after that before the plug-in variant starts assembly. The national manager of Toyota Product Communications, Michael Kroll, told AutoblogGreen, "As you might expect, we can't comment on future product plans."
Despite the delay, some potential details have already emerged about the new hybrid. A company spokesperson recently told Autoblog via email that Toyota is engineering the next-gen Prius to have smaller, more power-dense electric motors and greater thermal efficiency. The new modular platform is also rumored reduce weight, and the changes could lead to a targeted 10 percent improvement in fuel economy.

Watch the Muppets go for ice cream in a Toyota

Tue, 25 Feb 2014

Do Muppets drive? We're not sure it's necessarily a good idea, but it's been known to happen. Fozzy called his hibernating uncle's Studebaker a bear's "natural habitat," and Doctor Teeth wouldn't get the Electric Mayhem very far without his band's psychedelically painted school bus. But how about Rolf in a 2014 Toyota Highlander?
That's what we got a glimpse of in the run-up to the Super Bowl, and the same combination (plus one Rizzo the Rat) that features in this adorably ordinary video below. Ordinary because it's just a couple of guys going out for an ice cream. Adorable because, well... they're Muppets. See what we mean in the surprisingly entertaining two-minute clip below.
