A Show-and-Tell Video of Kevin Costner's Bad-Ass Custom Toyota Tundra

The ultimate ranch and outdoor family vacation vehicle

What's more interesting: To hear the statistics about a particular object, or to hear about how that object fits into someone's life? For engineers it's probably the former, for designers, the latter.

Kevin Costner is perhaps more design-minded. He's got a pretty bad-ass customized Toyota Tundra that he uses on his ranch, and when Toyota caught wind of it, they smelled an opportunity for a promotional video. "Toyota asked me if I'd be willing to talk about [the truck]," Costner says. "And I wasn't as inclined to talk about it, as more maybe to show how it works in my life." So that's what he did with this show-and-tell video:

If you read the fine print for gearhead nerds in the linked article, you'll note that this buggy has been equipped with gun lockers BOTH under the rear seat, and ready at hand in the driver's console.

Bang bang, my guys and critters! Don't mess with the COST-ner!

  Easy man, the Taco is a fine vehicle.
  
  Saw an amazing comment bumper sticker plastered across the lift gate of a lifted, coal-rolling Ram truck this past weekend, while heading up the mountain..."I IDENTIFY AS A PRIUS".
  Took a while to unpack that one, remarkably on-point for a knuckle-dragging Dodge owner.
