Spring is here and the days of plowing snow are over (I hope). But I thought I would post this because now is the time to plan for next year. The end of winter is the perfect time to buy a used plow. The price goes down as people dont want to store them over the summer. Plus it gives time to fabricate mounting brackets and wiring the plow to your Toyota truck. The first video explains the premise: a guy at work decided to trade in his truck. To sweeten the deal I offered him $500 for the plow. The dealer wasn’t going to give him any extra for the plow, since it was at the end of winter. The plow is a 6′6″ Western, with power angle, and it’s a unimount. A big advantage of the unimount is the pump stays off the truck when not in use. I spent the next 6 weeks engineering the mounts and set the plan into motion. It works well and I’ve had it on 3 of my trucks so far. Just thinking about it, that was 9 years ago. I havent had any trouble with the plow and it has served me well. Pretty good investment for $500.

Truth is- Toyota has had some very successful ad campaigns and some very memorable slogans. Do you remember your favorite?

“Oh what a feeling, Toyota” has to be mine, maybe because it’s the first one I remember. Seems this slogan has gone to the birds. Updated link

The best built cars in the world. Yes! But what about trucks?

“What will you do with all the money you save?” Toyota. Buy a set of custom rims

“Hey Toyota, you’re terrific!” - Toyota.

Bugger didn’t make the official list

Everything keeps going right Great for trips around the block.

Think you’re tough enough to drive a Tacoma? Ummm no.

Loch Ness Monster even prefers a Toyota.

This has to be my favorite. Did you know that Hiluxs are unbreakable? Crikey!

I love what you do for me - Toyota! Awww group hug!

I’m sure that I missed a few. Leave a comment with yours.

If you thought someone was kidding when they said my Toyota will go anywhere- this proves it. Although I’m not sure how much of this truck is Toyota anymore…

I’ve never seen this approach before. Seems like cheating. Crikey!

And now for something different, well there’s this. Yeeeee Haw!
