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.

Toyota expects hybrids will soon reach 20-percent sales volume globally

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Hybrids have come quite a long way from their roots as dull, slow, boring ecomobiles. Today, Porsche sells three hybrid models, one of which is the amazing 918 Spyder. BMW will soon sell four, including a low-slung, two-seat sports car. Even Ferrari and McLaren, full-fledged hypercar manufacturers, are embracing the tech. And all of these cars are sold alongside the same sort of boring cars that popularized hybrids in the first place. According to Toyota Chairman Takeshi Uchiyamada, though, we should see an even bigger increase in the number of hybrid vehicles in the coming years.
"I foresee hybrid models pretty soon reaching 20 percent of global sales from about 13 percent to 14 percent now," Uchiyamada-san told Automotive News. Uchiyamada is the man behind the original Prius, which gives him some degree of authority on making predictions about hybrid adoption.
What's remarkable, though, is that the 20-percent figure doesn't include plug-in hybrids, just gas- and diesel-electric models. "Suppliers need higher volumes to slash costs of components specific to plug-in models, including batteries that should be bigger and more capable than the ones used in traditional hybrids," Uchiyamada told AN.

Toyota Tacoma X-Runner dead

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

A report from last week indicated that Toyota will begin trimming models from its Tacoma lineup starting with the Regular Cab in 2015, but the popular pickup will lose its first variant even sooner than that. For 2014, the Tacoma X-Runner has been dropped, though the company's SR Package could fill the need of those looking for a sporty pickup.
The X-Runner has been around since 2005 with its lowered stance, aftermarket-look body kit and bright paint colors, all of which are offered available only on V6-powered, two-wheel-drive Access Cab Tacomas. The new SR Package sounds like it will offer a somewhat similar appearance, though, with a monotone exterior paint scheme in limited colors accented with smoked headlights, but it will only be offered on Pre-Runner and 4x4 models. Other changes being made to the 2014 Tacoma include a new wheel option with black finish, a wider variety of Entune multimedia features, and the option to have the backup camera display moved from the rearview mirror to the audio system head unit.

Toyota sizzle reel gives better look at i-Road Geneva concept

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Toyota is taking the tiny tandem Tango to Tron town. In a teaser video for the new i-Road, debuting at the Geneva Motor Show next week, we catch a light-bike-like glimpse of Toyota's quirky tandem-seat concept. We still don't know much about the vehicle itself, but the video does flash the words "fun, compact, emissions-free," which suggests this is an electric ride. Then comes the apparent tagline: "i Roll, i Rock i Road." An indication that the tilting image we see in the video isn't just a special effect, perhaps? We'll have to wait until we get to Switzerland next week to find out. Until then, you can watch the video below.
In more earthly reveals, Toyota will also show off its hotly anticipate FT-86 Open sports car concept and Auris Touring Sports wagon on its Geneva show stand.
