  How The Toyota Tacoma Grew From Japanese Oddity To All American

  08/07/15, via Yahoo Autos (blog)

  Toyota's new 1969 HiLux wasn't exotic in any way, but it was smaller than the Stout, significantly more refined and much more comfortable. Available only in standard cab form with a short cargo box, the HiLux was compact enough that the Stout's 1.9

Rushmovie review - CarAdvice

In Rush , director Ron Howard tells of the fierce rivalry in the 1976 Formula One racing season, as British driver James Hunt (Chris Hemsworth) and Austrian driver Niki Lauda (Daniel Brühl) vie for the world championship. Hunt is the superbly talented playboy who drinks, smokes and beds his way through the season, seemingly driven by the sole need to defeat his archrival for the title. A genius at setting up his racing car, Lauda is portrayed as the polar opposite of Hunt – a cantankerous wizard largely shunned by other drivers. Hemsworth capitalises on his good looks and screen charm to nail the perfectly shallow Hunt, but Brühl’s performance as the no-nonsense Lauda is where Rush gets truly exceptional. Hunt ostensibly brands the Austrian an ‘asshole’ throughout the story – yet even before Lauda’s fiery inferno at the Nurburgring, Brühl has got you rooting for Lauda with equal measure to Hunt. In fact, Brühl was so keen to get the authenticity of his character correct that he met with Lauda on several occasions and spoke on the phone whenever he wasn’t sure on the detail. “Niki is probably the most undiplomatic man in the world, as you will see, he’s very blunt,” Brühl said of the legendary driver.

Lexus Trainer Drives a Rare Toyota Pickup Truck - PickupTrucks.com

If you were in charge of training all the product specialists at Toyota and Lexus — as well as probably being one of the most knowledgeable people in the U. S. concerning just about every Toyota or Lexus ever built — what type of vehicle would you... If you happen to be Paul Williamson, the national manager at Lexus College at the University of Toyota, that vehicle would have to be something very special. We recently had the chance to see one of Williamson's most recent additions to his small but growing collection of cool vehicles. In fact, it’s part Land Cruiser, part pickup and part military refugee. Speaking of SoCal, Williamson’s Land Cruiser reminds us of the Icon FJ45 — the California-built, $120,000 "Rolls-Royce of Rock Crawlers" — that we drove in March. Although Williamson isn't exactly sure what year his Land Cruiser is from, he does know it had to be sometime in the mid- to late '80s and that it was most likely built in Saudi Arabia. Williamson pointed out that a section of the rear bumper was removed to allow for a military-issue pintle hook rear hitch, and that the bed came with a bed-mounted Hi-Lift jack as well.

Soames Job & RTA safety camera radio advertisement - CarAdvice

Mr Job is the boss of road safety policy at the NSW Roads and Traffic Authority. But let’s put the RTA in context first: The RTA has a massive multi-billion-dollar, taxpayer-funded budget. You pay for it, and so do I. It works for us. The RTA is supposed to be answerable to the NSW Minister for Roads – which is a kind of ‘clearing-house’ ministerial position. It’s a literally ministerial role with L-plates, a position the Premier historically elevates a NSW back-bencher to, with the promise of a better job soon on the proviso they don’t bugger it up too badly. Most of the incumbents aren’t in the job long enough for their arses to warm the chair at Parliament House, let alone forge positive change. Which is one of the reasons the RTA is a case of the tail wagging the dog – senior bureaucrats in the RTA tell the minister what to say and do … not the other way around. Which is one of the reasons the RTA could teach even the Tax Office a thing or two about arrogance. Here’s an example of how it all works: Last year I was at a press conference at Crashlab, which is an impressive facility for Australia, but can’t hold a candle to the crash-test facilities of the major carmakers overseas. Ministers aren’t expected to understand the technicalities, but you can tell when one is reading a speech they saw for the first time in the car on the way to the event. Source: www.caradvice.com.au
