@george33 Think the players will be thrilled. After turning in their Ford Rangers, they now get upgraded to a Toyota Hilux.
I think the ABs are driving nicer cars than Ford Rangers these days. Ruben Love for example was given a Merc to drive by Gazley Motors here in Welly.
That's a personal deal, he might have to give it back and change for a Prius

Toyota confirmed
The All Blacks have signed a multimillion-dollar deal with a new sponsor for training kit naming rights.
A major car brand replaces Ineos, which ended its sponsorship early, with NZR securing more sponsorship money.
The deal aligns with NZR’s strategy to partner with consumer brands, boosting local marketing efforts. -
@Machpants so Ineos & Ford gone, but Toyota on board...have to think there is still a gap between the $$$ that Ineos/Ford paid vs what Toyota will be giving? So is there another likely coming on board soon?

The latest Prius (hybrid car of the year) has been really popular
(sales up 16 to 20% yet not sold in Oz now) and praised - element such as its hybrid system have been adopted into Lexus.No I don't have one or even own a Toyota.

Oh got yah. Haha imagine the stick the other boys would give him if he turned up to training as an Uber driver.
I saw Jordan got a similar deal.

As a Corolla driver I like this.
we should run a poll on who drives what. A few flash harries around the place, and bunch of Hilux/Ranger ... with a fair blend of sensible middle class Toyotas I expect.
