Totally Toyota Trucks

If you're a man on Maui, you haven't reached the pinnacle of coolness until you have a Toyota truck.  I drive a Nissan.

My hunch is to ask any dude on Maui (or Hawaii for that matter) what his ideal truck would be given no financial constraints, and 9 times out of 10, his answer would undoubtedly be Toyota.  I see more Toyotas than other truck brand out there - especially Tacomas.

Why?  Don't have a clue.

Yes, Toyota is going though problems right now, but the company has built a reputation of quality, dependability and style over the years.  The Toyota truck enables its owner to use it as a canvas to reflect his own personality and character.  You can tell a lot about a guy by looking at his truck.

All these shots were taken while walking around the parking lots of Maui Marketplace and Cotsco.  See what I mean:
