INTERVIEW #03
One piece BRADLEY is good.
I knew you'd like it.
Land Cruiser 40 Owner
Land Cruiser 40's are a lot of fun to drive.
It's strange.
Land Cruiser 40 still has so much left.
Moreover, vehicle prices are now higher.
The fact that such an old car is so expensive must be because it is a good car.
If no one buys it, it shouldn't be expensive.
One of the things I feel when I am in contact with a wide variety of Land Cruisers is that the Land Cruiser 70 is complete.
To use one analogy, a company owner buys a Land Cruiser 70 and gives it to his employees for their work. Because work should not stop.
On the other hand, the managers themselves may be on 40.
You can choose my car as your hobby. I leave the work to you (laughs).
40 has such an appeal to it.
It's like a job to pass on Land Cruiser's charms to future generations.
Our various activities related to our own Land Cruiser are like a job. We want to pass them on to future generations.
When we started the Bradley Cup, we only attracted about 10 to 20 cars.
When the number of participants gradually increased to 50-60, there were only about 3-4 Land Cruisers participating.
They wanted to convey the appeal of Land Cruiser, so they thought, "If we don't participate and play an active role in Land Cruiser, then Land Cruiser won't sell."
When we had a series of about four rounds a year, I was able to participate and eventually win the championship.
I got on top of the podium and told the other cars.
'You didn't expect to lose to Land Cruiser. It must be frustrating. That felt good (laughs).
Now, we hold the event only for Land Cruisers, and we get about 120 cars. Land Cruisers are the only ones who can ride in the same ring (laughs).
I've been recommending to everyone that 1 piece BRADLEY is good. I knew it was good.
Considering the balance of the car, larger tires would be cooler in terms of design.
So 16 inches rather than 15 inches. That's about right.
You can find 16" 750R size if you look for them. If you put these on, the ground clearance will go up by 3 cm. This would reduce the number of places to hit.
I think this is the best size.
I've been telling people for a long time that one-piece wheels are definitely the way to go."
After all, the one-piece wheel BRADLEY has become the standard, and everyone is buying them.
I remember saying to the president of the manufacturer at the time not too long ago, "You know, I've been thinking about this for a long time.
I thought, "I'm glad I kept making one piece, after all.
