    Toyota Land Cruiser needs no introduction.  Legendary longevity and reliability of the Land Cruiser are known worldwide.  While most of that is focused on the 60, 70, and 80’s series Land Cruisers, the latest 200 series is still held to that standard.  The 200 series may look and feel softer than its predecessors but a…

    I was half-way into my week with the 2020 Toyota Land Cruiser Heritage Edition and my feelings toward it were very conflicted. Its go-anywhere, fear-nothing feel was charming me. Its dated elements were doing the opposite. How would I feel about the package as a whole? The week progressed and I continued to drive the…

    Thunder cracked and the unmistakable sound of rain pounding on the windows stopped me in my tracks. Wind howled. Flashes of lightning cast shadows not regularly there. I looked outside and saw the white Land Cruiser parked steady, unmoving against the awful weather. Then I glanced back to my surroundings — my living room —…

    The new 2020 Toyota Supra is here, and while it won my Supra vs. Z4 comparison, I have remained a bit conflicted about it overall. What exactly does a $50,000 Toyota sports car compete with these days? Before I ever drove it, I wrote about this quandary on another site. Basically, It’s too expensive to compare…

    I started this 2020 Toyota RAV4 TRD review by trying not to focus on COVID-19. I only got through the title. It’s impossible, our “new normal” is far from normal. I know, I’ve seen the Facebook memes, our grandparents faced worse. We just need to sit on the couch and watch that Tiger show on…

    We cover the Toyota 4Runner a lot here on Hooniverse. So it was with that in mind that I decided to pile on with my review of the 2020 Toyota 4Runner Nightshade Special Edition. Because, here’s the thing – I don’t really like the Toyota 4Runner. Never have. I’ve always found it overpriced with a…

    We’re taking a long look (for us) at the Toyota Supra today. Towards the end of 2019, I had the change to drive a Supra on track. I saved that footage knowing I’d get to spend time with the car a few months later. So I’ve combined the footage into one longer-style review. This is…

    Aging is a funny thing, once you’re old enough to afford certain things or experiences, you’re often too old to enjoy them. Of course age is only a number, and that’s a good thing for the 2020 Toyota Tundra. I’ve reviewed several trim levels of the most recent Tundra over the past few years, including…

    December is here and so is the first winter storm in the northeast. 2020 model year 4Runner is here too, just in time for the storms. I didn’t have any new expectation for this ever-so-slightly updated 2020 model. It is still the very similar fifth generation 4Runner, very similar to the 2010 model year 4Runner…

    It’s unlikely that the average Hooniverse reader is unaware that there is a new Toyota Supra and a new BMW Z4 for 2020. Nor is it a stretch to say that you all likely know that the cars are built from the same G29 BMW platform. However, most people have probably not had the chance…
