Howler Brothers And Toyota Just Launched Land Cruiser-Inspired Swag
Howler Brothers and Toyota teamed up for an outdoors-focused apparel and gear collection.
Austin, Texas-based lifestyle brand Howler Brothers says its culture is built on surfing, classic surf culture, fly fishing, western wear, waves, world cultures, food and music. Teens at our local high school here in Austin wear Howler Brothers t-shirts every day, and the 'Heed the Call' motto is omnipresent. Now, this brand is teaming up with Toyota with a collaboration born in the outdoors and featuring one of Toyota's most iconic models: the Land Cruiser.
The Howler Brothers x Land Cruiser collection is an homage to overlanders, off-roaders, and the outdoorsy crowd that doesn't much care for suits and 9-to-5 jobs. Inspired by Costa Rica and Toyota Land Cruiser-driven adventure, the limited edition collaboration includes jackets, hoodies, shorts, hats, and more.
The Howler Brothers x Land Cruiser collection features apparel and accessories for adventurous ... More people.
Howler Brothers t-shirts are notoriously soft, made from a blend of 60 percent cotton and 40 percent polyester. The graphics are unique and the shirts wash well; ask me how I know (we have a dozen or more of them in the house). Like the Land Cruiser, Howler Brothers apparel is rugged, classic, and long-lasting…even after countless rounds in the dryer.
The idea with this collaboration is to have clothing suitable for adventure. Those who like taking their SUV or truck out to the middle of nowhere to commune with nature and enjoy quality time with friends and family will appreciate the Howler Brothers theme.
Howler Brothers is based in Austin, Texas and makes lifestyle apparel and accessories.
After a two-year hiatus, Toyota brought the Land Cruiser back with a brand-new body style and a more attainable price tag. Starting with the 2024 model, the Land Cruiser is powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder hybrid engine making 326 horsepower. The newest Land Cruiser shares a platform with the popular Lexus GX, long known for its boxy and go-anywhere capability. Sitting just above the Toyota 4Runner in size and below the three-row Sequoia, the Land Cruiser has seating for five passengers and can hold between 16 and 18 carry-on suitcases in the back.
There's a reason classic Land Cruisers can be seen just about everywhere in the world: it lasts forever and is as agile as a mountain goat. This is no fluffy SUV built for looks alone. Equipped with ventilated front seats, a 10-speaker stereo system, a 12.3-inch touchscreen, and all-terrain tires in the mid-grade Land Cruiser trim, it's a machine that I've tested off-road and can attest to its comfort and viability. And it's comfortable on the asphalt, too. The Land Cruiser is significantly more fuel efficient than its predecessor at 23 miles per gallon combined.

Tesla invites select few to Texas robotaxi trial with front seat safety monitors
By Akash Sriram and Abhirup Roy (Reuters) -Tesla has sent out invitations to a small group of people to join the limited test of its robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, which is tentatively set to start on Sunday, according to posts and email screenshots on social media. The invitations said a Tesla employee will accompany riders in the front passenger seat, the posts showed. A successful trial in Austin will be crucial for Tesla, as car buyers shun the company following its CEO Elon Musk's embrace of hard-right politics in the U.S. and worldwide. The company has shifted from building a cheaper EV platform to robotics and artificial intelligence. Much of the company's valuation rests on that bet. Musk has said he will focus on safety in the trial, with humans remotely monitoring the vehicles. He has said he expects to be able to scale the robotaxi quickly. Tesla plans to deploy around 10 Model Y SUVs that run on a version of Tesla's full self-driving driver assistance software, Musk has said. The start could be delayed and the service might be limited or unavailable in bad weather. Riders have to be aged 18 or above to take a ride. "Tesla is rolling out the Robotaxi service extremely cautiously, which is good. Baby steps," posted Omar Qazi, an user with 635,100 followers who posts often about Tesla using the handle @WholeMarsBlog and received an invite. "Very much so," CEO Elon Musk responded. But commercializing autonomous vehicles is an expensive, risky process. Tesla and others such as Alphabet's Waymo and Amazon's Zoox have faced federal investigations and recalls following collisions. Industry experts have questioned the efficacy of Tesla's self-driving technology that depends mostly on cameras and AI, without redundant sensors such as lidar and radar, claiming fog, heavy rain, and glaring sunlight can hamper safety. On Wednesday, a group of Democratic lawmakers from the Austin area called on the company to delay the rollout until September, when a new state law governing autonomous vehicles takes effect. Users who confirm their presence in Austin can download Tesla's Robotaxi app, which they use to call a vehicle. "Through this exclusive preview, you'll have the opportunity to provide valuable feedback on our Robotaxi service," one of the screenshots showed. Reuters could not immediately verify the authenticity of the screenshots.

GOP moves sap US EV market as China roars ahead, report finds
Republicans' abrupt withdrawal of support for electric vehicles puts the U.S. on trajectory to become a lackluster EV market even as China becomes even more dominant, according to a new report by BloombergNEF. While drivers around the world are buying more EVs — the report projects that 1 in 4 cars made this year will be electric — the U.S. reversal is so thorough that it still bends the world market downward. The current year 'is the first year where we have reduced both our near-term and long-term passenger EV adoption outlook,' BNEF said in its annual EV outlook. 'Policy changes in the U.S. are the biggest factor.' Advertisement The biggest difference-makers, BNEF said, are the watering down of national fuel-economy rules, the drastic cutbacks in EV subsidies being contemplated by Republicans in Congress, and the legal fog surrounding California's requirement that automakers sell lots of EVs.
