Toyota has many hybrid vehicles to choose from now including options like the Toyota RAV4 and Toyota Camry.

One of the most overlooked parts of a car is the windshield glass. A quality windshield will provide you with valuable protection from debris that hits your car while driving. Since a windshield is so valuable, it is important that you follow standard maintenance protocols when necessary.

Even the best drivers on the road will have incidences where debris hits a windshield and causes a minor ding or crack. In some situations, these minor dings could grow to be more serious issues. In the worst situations, this could require you to replace the windshield entirely...

Christina Fate, a rally car navigator for Toyota, is a novice rock climber. In fact, she trained just four weeks on an indoor wall with a coach before heading to New York City. There, she scaled a 120 foot rock wall installation—the same height as a billboard in Times Square—erected by Toyota.

Think quick: what’s the link between Toyota, compost and cars? If you guessed that Toyota is using the methane gas produced by compost to create and power cars, you’d be right!

How does it work? In basic layman’s terms, Toyota is capturing the methane gas that’s produced in abundance by landfills. This gas is a byproduct of food rotting. The automotive manufacturer is then utilizing that gas to power both its plants and vehicles. At least, that’s the long-term goal.
