Toyota 4x4 Trip

Some picts from a local trip with Corporate Toyota that I was on. They were checking out the land cruisers, getting development ideas and going out with the real users of Toyotas.. and talking to the owners and drivers. A film crew was also along taping us.. Most of the drivers were from the Trail Crew Club, and owners/employee's of TLC in Van Nuys that specializes in Toyota Land Cruiser service and restoration.

Yes those first picts are a prototype FJ Land Cruiser double cab built by TLC for Toyota. Built on a Tacoma chassis, including a supercharged 3.4 engine.. Sorry, it's sold already to a private party.
