when will a new slogan be chosen? Great Question.... I don't know for sure. I have seen a few good ones, but none that REALLY stand out. Know what I mean? Maybe I'll put together a poll of the good ones and let you guys fight it out.... |

how about a picture of a muddy toyota parked with the door open, below it says " i want you inside me." come on now Mike, we all know mine was the most original and would make people look and the slogan  |

I have to admit, banshee's slogan was original, eye catching, and hilarious. Not exactly a PG rated shirt though. But if the point was solely to get the point across this slogan is better than any other one I have seen. It would definitly be remembered. I would buy one if made.

Actually, I have to agree. I like, no, I love the idea. And, I really don't have a problem making it into a shirt.
But, the point of the contest is to come up with a slogan for the site... not a T-shirt design. Don't get me wrong, like I said, I really like it. But somehow, the words: "ToyotaOffRoad.com - I Want You Inside Me" just wouldn't look right on each page of the site. It needs the image to go with it.
By the way, if anyone has a GOOD photo of a truck that is all mudded up with the door open like that, send it in. I am no good at drawing or airbrushing or I'd do it myself.
Thanks all...

In keeping with the theme of slogans for the site... here are a few... toyotaoffroad.com ... "Bringing your Toyota to a whole new level!" "Just what your Toy has been looking for!" "Open 24/7, all Toys welcome" "Put some SAS in your Toy!" - probably wouldn't work but I liked it Just some rambling ideas |

Sorry in advance for using the "F" word......
Built Ford tough with 100% Toyota stuff.
Going were no one has gone before.
Open 24/7 for all your Yota's needs.
Were help is only a few clicks away.
Cuz full size is for those that lack Imagination and Dreams.
Also have the idea of something that uses the letters T O Y O T A, but have come up with anything good yet..... Any takers?

I like burntorange's idea. I think we need a new emblem/picture, but with something like that it would look good on the home page and also look good on the back of a T-shirt. That is another think Mike, if we were to come up with a design for a T-shirt, which I want, I recommend having the big picture or whatever on the back of the T-shirt. I think it looks better that way.

I like the first one since it is obvious that it is a toy and it also shows the underneath of the truck and there are not 4 blocks stacked in order to get lift  |

Now I like that a lot. Catchy phrase, cool pic, and it also has our sites address. I would definitly have a T-shirt like that.

I want you inside me!? Not to be rude, but this is no bordello! What does "i want you inside me" have to do with this website or group? It makes it sound like were nothing but a bunch of degenerates instead of making it sound like a classy group of guys that want nothing more than to talk about our trucks. I mean let's start posting pictures of random girls we see on the street.....maybe we could get Toyota Offroad Girls Gone Wild started up?
No i'm not posting this because i'm mad, i could care less, i wasn't going for the slogan, i was going for the image, so my slogan might suck, but i think toyotaoffroad.com can be represented better and in a more serious manner then "i want you inside me".
Let's think of something that promotes and gives respect to toyotaoffroad.com, instead of something that makes the site seem raunchy.

Burnt, I don't think anything you have submitted sucks. The truth be told though Banshee's idea is an eye opener and will stick with you. I agree that we need something "tamer", but with all respect Banshee's submission is the best in regards to advertisement and marketing. We all want something that people will look at and say, "Wow, I got to check that site out", or "Wow, I should get a Toy" or something along those lines. Basically, what I am trying to say is that we need to come up with something as catchy as Banshee's submission but class it up. That way when someone sees it they don't forget it two seconds later.

i also think if we also had the pic of a muddy toy with the door open and the message below its more "classy" as you get a better idea what the reference and the dirty one is more of a second thought

As I have stated before, I like the "catch phrase". But, not for the official site slogan or whatever. It will make a great T-Shirt and as soon as I can come up with a pic to put the text on, I'll use it. As of now, I am still searching for it.
Burnt, I get what you are saying man, and I appreciate it. And, for your reasons, that is why it won't be the official slogan. Truth is, your idea is more what I was looking for (along that line anyway). I want to be able to use the slogan when advertising (such as on search engines and Top4x4Links).
With that said, I have a few ideas... but they are just off the cuff... lemme know what you think.
ToyotaOffRoad.com....
...these aren't your kids' Toys
...Toybox for the grown-ups
...where you don't have to be a kid to play with your Toys
...it's all about the Toys
...the best Toys are imported
...our Toys are bigger than yours
...if it's not a Toy, it's just for kids
...we've got the biggest Toys
I'll work on a few more.

So i decided to image the "i want you inside" idea, i couldn't find a muddy truck with the door open, this is the only one in our gallery that i could find with the door open at all.  |
