    Default My Hybrid 4Runner



    Some of you are familiar with my 4Runner and have seen the Hybrid badge I stuck on to it just for fun. Lots of people stop and ask me about it saying stuff like "I didn't know they made a Hybrid 4Runner" and my reply ranges from "This is a prototype" to "Of course they don't" and everything in between depending on my mood.

    Today was the best when I was picking up a part at Toyota and a guy from sales asked me about my hybrid. After ridiculing him on not knowing his product line and failing to keep a straight face he told me he got into an argument with a customer wanting to buy a 4Runner Hybrid.

    He told the customer there was no such thing and the customer argued vehemently that there sure was. The customer told him he sees a white one around town all the time and stormed out of the dealership.
