Doesn't Toyota pay you to design safety belts, not post on forums on their time?

Seatbelts? No I'm in charge of designing 4x4 buttons but since the FJ has a transfer case shifter instead of buttons I have alot of free time on my hands. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I can understand why you guys went with a shifter instead of buttons. Your market research for potential FJ owners showed a high percentage of people who like long shafts. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>Hey now...my Xterra has a shifter too.  </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Guess they got the same market research results  </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Spot on research! ROFLMFAO!!!  </div></BLOCKQUOTE>I suppose they gave the H3 push button 4wd because they knew H3 owners have never handled a long shaft before. H3 owners have never seen a shaft other than on the internet. I guess they marketed it correctly for the "Compensating" group.

Actually the research for the FJ showed a high percentage of potential owners already owned long shafts and knew how to use them. I haven't seen the Market research for the H3 but I can only assume they gave it buttons because it showed that H3 owners have never owned long shafts and wouldn't know how to handle them.

Ding Ding Ding!!! Ladies and well, more ladies. We have a winner! Its obvious that H3 drivers know how to handle a ladies "special" button
While studies show that Xterra and FJ owners only know how to play with their shafts...
By themselves...

Now I know what bothers me about the design. It looks like an old fashioned ambulance. Somebody should photoshop the last picture, and turn it red and white, make the off road lights red, and there you go mini off road ambulance
