Cyber Off-Roading
Toyota Offroad Here's a good tip: go to your computer right now. Hopefully it's in your garage where you can stare dreamily at your 'Cruiser and check out some cool Toyota connections at ToyotaOffRoad.com. The Toyota site focuses, of course, on four-wheel drive 4Runner, Rav4, 4x2, 4x4, HiLux, and Land Cruiser. They have pages and pages of killer "readers rides," Toyota news, technical articles, truck magazines (including our very own 4-Wheel & Off-Road), links to other Toyota4x4 sites/products and a discussion/message board. It's much better than watching TV all night.
