1994 Toyota HiAce Super Custom: Regular Car Reviews

I remember being part of a tourist group that ran the length of Kashmir upto the highest point where a vehicle could go. We were in a HiAce with a high roof trim and let me tell you, when we reached the highest point the people there came to see this van and were astonished at this city comuter box reaching a point where military land rovers defenders would struggle.

We'll probably have to do revisions to the hierarchy over time, like a textbook you get assigned for a 300 level course that's the same as the 100 level course but somehow still $250. Except our revisions will be free, because I can't imagine anyone paying for an RCR University Course Book.

For the nearly decade that I have lived here in Japan, Hi-Aces are mostly used by construction workers and maybe those that take snowboarding/skiing very seriously - or both. When I worked in construction in this country at one point in time, nearly every single van that came to a construction site was a Hi-Ace with a sparse smattering of Chamonix Delicas and then the rare "Highway STAR" minvans for those that wanted style over functionality - and these were the guys and girls that had custom designer construction worker wear.

I heard rumours of one large railroad here who pays cab companies to report on employees who are using their smartphones on company time-even for the ride to the hotel.

My 2017 Dodge challenger GT AWD reached validation on the RCR hierarchy. The 2015 Volkswagen Golf diesel TDI Sportwagon I just traded it in for reaches contentment. Now I can travel anywhere I want. My tires are $300 instead of $1,100. My highway gas mileage is up to 70MPG instead of up to 30MPG. Bravo on this hierarchy.

Your application of the Hierarchy of Needs on cars was downright masterful.

I went through the hierarchy of needs with my car as I sat here watching this. My car is a 2020 V6 Dodge Challenger SXT with all wheel drive. Does it serve its bare minimum function? Yes. It passes inspection and runs really well. I have to fuel it maybe once a week if I drive it enough. I love how I look in it, and I will drive it until I can't, and then I'll fix it and drive it some more.

I love my current car but still kept shopping the market, convinced there was something better for me. Never knew why until now, when I realized I have a step 4 car. Love the hierarchy, and thank you for breaking it down so effectively.
