    WFT,O? That's brutal. What's that Toyota behemoth next to it? Some sorta roided out Land Cruiser? I've never seen one of those before.

    So that's why UCS rates Honda as a greener company. I assume that they don't have anything like that.

    Toyota makes vehicles for sale all around the world. This would probably be a big seller in the middle east and Africa. It's just more competition for GM and Ford and Merc.

    The last time I checked, the Mega Cruiser was a concept. For all I know, it might have been in production. Toyota is Japan's No. 1 automaker with a very diverse lineup. Nissan is second with an equally long line up of cars. Honda's 3rd with a short lineup. Whatever's sold here is ~80-90% of what Honda sells. Whereas we probably only get 40-50% of Toyota or Nissan vehicles here

    What's going to happen is that the Mega Cruiser will start making appearances in the US and Hummer owners (or just GM as an entity) will cry about how Toyota is now making a car to compete with the Hummer. Never mind that the MC was first created in '96.

    Oh, and that Prius is fugly.

    That Prius is pretty bad, though I do like the painted extentions coming off the headlights. (Seen on the Barris site)

    the green would be nice, that gold color is a bit over the top for me though. neon pink or flourescent orange maybe...
