Like they say go big, or go home! Introducing the Toyota “Tundrasine” Concept which some are calling the “Cowboy Cadillac”. This stretched out pickup truck will be featured at the 2015 Specialty Equipment Market Association, or SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week.
This vehicle was born as a Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition 4×4 CrewMax 5.7L V8 pickup, and grew up to be a full-size larger-than-life size limousine/truck hybrid concept. The Tundrasine is measuring over 36-feet in length and has a wheelbase of 235.9 inches. The interior cockpit and passenger compartments replicate luxury private jets, with a rich brown leather look. The exterior has been painted Midnight Black Metallic, and has eight functional doors.
This showstopper was assembled at the company’s facility located in San Antonio, TX. “They say everything’s bigger in Texas,” Steve Appelbaum, National Engagement Marketing Manager, Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A said, “and the Tundrasine really drives that point home, or anywhere you want to go.”
The team at Fiore Toyota thought that this vehicle was pretty impressive and we enjoy sharing such innovative concepts with our loyal customers near and far.

Learn How Toyota can Protect the Driver in a Frontal Collision as well as Pedestrian Detection
When you think of Toyota, you need to think safety. The technology that Toyota has invested into the 2016 model year leaves no question that this vehicle has unsurmountable safety protection, when it comes to avoiding any frontal collision. Come on down to Fiore Toyota today and see for yourself the incredible features this vehicle has to offer on your test drive. Our showroom is a short journey from State College, Johnstown, Altoona and Indiana, PA. Visit us at 1000 Logan Boulevard in Hollidaysburg, PA.
First let’s introduce you to the PCS or Pre-Collision System, Toyota’s Safety Sense C – available on select 2016 models. If this advanced alert system determines that another vehicle is too close to the front of the vehicle and could possibly cause a collision, the alert system will prompt the driver to apply the brakes by using an audio and visual alert. The PCS uses an in-vehicle camera, as well as a laser radar to avoid any collision. This system is fully enabled at 10 MPH and up to 87 MPH. If the driver does not brake in time, the Brake Assist System may automatically apply the brakes for you by bringing the vehicle to a complete stop, which will then retain the vehicle at a full stop for 2 full seconds.
The other safety sensor that has been added to the 2016 select Toyota models is the Safety Sense P, (PD) or Pedestrian Detection sensor. This sensor is engaged at 7MPH with speeds up to 50MPH. The Pedestrian Detection protection function will sense a pedestrian by using an audio and visual alert prompted by a millimeter wave radar that measures distance and in-vehicle camera. The PD Utilizes the Brake Assist System in the same manner as the PCS sensor as mentioned above.

Back to the Future With The Toyota Mirai
This past Wednesday marked a very special day for all Back to the Future fans. For anyone who is familiar with the famous franchise, you know that October 21, 2015 was the exact date that Doc Brown and Marty McFly traveled to when they went thirty years into the future in Part II of the trilogy. In honor of the anniversary, Toyota teamed up with the film’s stars Christopher Lloyd and Michael J Fox in order to create a special tribute film that also celebrated the official launch of the new Toyota Mirai.
In the film, we see Lloyd and Fox discussing some of the technological advancements that were introduced in the film and compare them to what we actually do have available now. Then, they are joined by a young inventor who explains them the intricacies of the new Toyota Mirai and how it is powered by Hydrogen Fuel-Cell technology, the zero-emissions technology of the future that can create fuel out of anything, including garbage.

With that in mind, Discovery Education is proud to partner with Toyota on this unique initiative that empowers teens to use their digital storytelling skills to inspire their peers,” said Lori McFarling, Senior Vice President at Discovery Education. “To keep teens safe on the road, it’s critical that we reach them in the classroom – where they spend the majority of their time – by providing needed digital resources that emphasize the importance of making smart choices behind the wheel.”
The Toyota TeenDrive365 Video Challenge teams up with Discovery Education and prompts high school students all across the US to create short videos that aim to inspire their friends and family members to practice safe driving habits and to avoid distractions while behind the wheel. There is a $15,000 grand prize and an opportunity to work with a Discovery film crew to recreate their video as a TV-ready PSA. Visit www.TeenDrive365inschool.com for more information.
