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.
