Shadowrun: Toyota Corona Pickup - Ranger Special
Toyota is proud to present the newest version of out multi purpose
Corona pickup, one of the most widly used pickups of the world. After
intense testing and user feedback from South Africa, Ethiopia, India,
Norwege, Native American Nations, and Amazonia, we build the ultimate
ranger transportation. No car is better at finding smugglers, getting
anywhere fast with heavy equipment, making tours of weeks on end, and
still get out in working order.
Get you staff what they need,
Get them a Toyota
Corona RS

Do you know where they use it? (South) Africa, India, and a few in the
far East. The rest of the world prefers drones, which are a hell of a lot
cheaper.

Drones need stable bases with good tech support, this baby needs diesel
fuel and somebody who can weld in case of extreme problems. Supprise why
they use it in africa. I've been on 'hunting' expeditions in A and it's
a great vehicle, except for the damn tires.

He! I can replace tires!

It is not the tires. It is the whole wheel. It is just not up to real
off-road work. The rest will keep on working, but those tires!

Replace them with wheels from the Crystler DeerHunter. Yes that means fixing
an imperial wheel on a metric axle, but it works like a charm if you have
a well equiped shop. The DeerHunter is a heavy instable fuel guzler, but
the wheels are a-okay.

You can hardly tell the difference between normal Corona and (most) RS
models. This makes it just right for certain people.

Features
This is only a part of what the RS can offer, and customization is
always possible:
- The standard Corona HL frame. Yes we consider this the best feature.
Tested for several years in the most adverse conditions, we know
that it will not break down. The frame includes APPS, so we are sure
that you won't break down either.
- State of the art sensors, which include low-yield (20km max) radar,
sophisticated pattern analysis, spectrum includes IR and UV, close-range
ultrasound scanning and more.
- Hybrid Synergy® drive: using a fuel efficient (fully filtered) diesel engine,
combined with a silent Mach6* electrical drive powering (and
steering) four wheels
- Patrol range of more than 1600 kilometers and we aren't even using
the batteries of your electric drive.
- CMC: all vulnerable parts are doubled (sometimes even tripled!), so
that no single point of failure is possible.
Standard (factory build) options are:
- Standard and Heavy armor package. The standard armor will allow
the car to drive on without any problems even after several rifle hits,
while the heavy armor package will just ignore them. Both armor packages
can be hidden (at a slight surcharge) so that opponents can not tell
if the encounter a standard RS of an RS-A2h.
- Extended cabin with either a double bench seat or twin beds with
mini kitchen†
- Rigger interface
- Remote interface (Rigger interface is mandatory)
- Advanced Amphibian mode
- Passenger seat hatch with ring mount.

1000 miles isn't that impressive. Then again, just use jerrycans. The
mini kitchen is okay if you want to eat, but god forbid if you have
got a passenger expecting a 5 course meal.
The remote interface is a life saver when you and your passenger have
been tracking an awakened critter on foot for half an hour, and you still
want to have you car, pronto.

Although it is not a factory option (Toyota design is still japanese),
the passenger seat can be easily upgraded to allow for trolls. The driver
position has not enough room for that, unless you do some serious
modification.

Advanced Amphibian mode, phah! It is just a basic screw. And the doors
are not sealed, so you will get wet if you stay in to long.
]<<<<<<

Sealing will only take a day or so, and, unless you have the shotgun
option, gas sealing is pretty easy too.

Toyota has 50 years of experience with hybrid engines and it shows.
Even the SOTA electrics 'just work', but if you use it a lot, do pay
attention to your maintenance. The CMC is dangerous for inexperienced
drivers: if you don't pay attention to your telltales, one minute
your racing along the savanah and next minute your car is a crashed
wreck.

Cool, where do I buy one?

RTFM Wienee, B3 licenced firms only. That (officially) means B+ corps,
or C+ sec-corps. A little lower with the right credentials does work,
but it is a no go for Joe Public.
