1981 Toyota Landcruiser Camper for a Zombie-Crushing $35,000 Canadian!
1981 Toyota Landcruiser Camper for a Zombie-Crushing $35,000 Canadian!-August 2024

The is coming, but has got your delicious brain covered with a Canadian camper that's scalp-gnawingly tough.

You all were none too kind to the yesterday- awarding it a non-Oscar contending 86% on the Crack Pipe scale. Today we're heading north for something a little more butch. Oh, and you'll want to bring your chainsaws.

Lights! Camera! Auction! Nice Price or Crack Pipe has a car from a movie you've never heard of, and

Zombies; you can't live with ‘em, you can't living dead without ‘em, but they're a fact of life. And, in order to avoid having your soft and savory gray matter becoming skull candy for those past their expiration date, you're going to need a vehicle with corpse-crushing capabilities, and long-term living accoutrements. Canada is ready with just such a ride - an '81 Toyota Landcruiser, eh.

The good thing about the Toyota Landcruiser is that they built them for years with very minor changes. That way, any parts that have been gnawed off, or windows which have been inexplicably smashed by rock-hurling shufflers, can be easily sourced and repaired. Today's survivalist hails from 1981 and, in its modified state, offers the perfect base station for your zombie jihad. With a bullet-proof diesel six, solar panels and a camper top, it will make all the treks between your shopping mall compound and the gun store over on main street all that much more enjoyable. And it's painted in a blood spatter-hiding red so you can drive it to that fancy new restaurant - Le zombé du monde without even having to hose it off.

The only downside may be that price- $35,000. And it's currently in Vancouver BC, which means that may be thirty five grand Canadian, which works out to about $32K in real money, and that's a lot of tire irons through the brains. You'll also have to factor in the whole Canadian zombie problem. Up there the zombies are just like here, only less emotive and with better healthcare. Also, some of them moan in French!

So what do you think- is $35,000 a Nice Price for a Toyota Landcruiser that may be the only thing standing between you and eternally walking the earth looking for mouth-watering brains to eat? Or is that a Crack Pipe big enough to bash in a whole herd of zombies with?

You decide!

The night following our first day with the Lexus IS-F, after our own Wes Siler managed to procure two trashcans full of beer, a bunch of us auto-journo types sat around telling war stories involving crochet mallets (don't ask). After we'd laughed most of the oxygen out of the room,...

Remember back 20 years when Mercedes and BMW scoffed at the idea of a Japanese luxury competitor? They weren't alone; basically everyone did. Well, we guarantee those companies are doing anything but scoffing now. This time around, with Lexus going after the Germans' most profitable niche - hottie factory tuners...

Among the people to whom I showed the IS-F, reaction was mixed. Some absolutely loved it. Others, not so much. I'm right in the middle. Not counting the fab-looking wheels there are three major differences between the steroidal F model and a regular IS. 1) Front end. The brake-cooling inlets...

Lightning-fast acceleration, massive globs of handling and most likely the finest brakes we've ever stomped. World-class performance from an unlikely source, and that equals stealth. The eight-speed transmission means even with performance on par with the competition, you 'll get better fuel efficiency. The (expected) price will undercut the competition,...

I mentioned in today's of the IS-F review that if you remove the engine cover you're, "Looking at Darth Vader's chest plate, an expansive jumble of wires, black boxes and even more wires." Well, I wasn't kidding. More after the jump. That's, uh, me, holding the rubber engine cover. Notice...
