I did not know you could check fuel level with the car off; pretty neat!

Nobody will be the same on the forums after checking their gas without turning on the car. Witchcraft I tell you!

Cute video, but hardly front page worthy. Only useful fact is the fuel check (which anyone who skimmed the owners manual would know), an none of these facts are what I'd call "peculiar" at all.

Pressing odometer button also shows the odometer without turning on the car.

I didn't know the details about the steering wheel size or roof ridges, but I love the "four wheels" in the logo. XD

I heard it was supposed to be the Toyota "T" (and imitate carbon fiber). But I'm not sure if that's right...

just to add that not only is there the pagoda roof design for extra helmet clearance, but you can also flip the headrest backwards for even more clearance

It's a throwback to an old school Toyota emblem. Not terribly common, I can't really find any info on it but this popped up right away. There's some guys who are really into Toyota that can probably provide more info and on second glance there may be a more fitting emblem I'm missing. |
