I'm in Japan 2 weeks for business. First time here. Figured I'd post up some pics.

So far I've seen one full size american made truck. A Ford F150. It would be cool as hell to cruise around here in my truck. Aside from all the wrong side of road stuff.



Hotel room is very small.



Picture out the hotel window. Trains going by all the time. Electric.



Skylines everywhere....



Got out and did some sight seeing today. Toyota Automobile Museum. Hands down the best automobile museum I have ever see. Cars from all era's and countries. Stunning automobiles.



Nagoya Castle. Built 1610. Much of it burnt from bombing in WWII and rebuilt.



Out over Nagoya from the top of castle.

 

Nice pics! What do you do that took you to Japan?

 

I'm an engineer for a automotive supplier. Our major customer is Toyota. Having tooling (injection molds) built here and I'm here to do some first run offs on them.

 

Hey I've been there bro! I worked for Toyota for a little while too. This is one of their plants. I've been to Nagasaki, Osaka, Toyohashi, Kawasaki (no kidding), Yokohama(not kidding either), Nagoya, Hiroshima(where Mazda's are made), and a couple other places that I can't recall off the top of my head. I almost pissed on myself the first time I saw this place. This is when the lot is half full. Everyday they empty half the lot into waiting ships. And this is one of 7 total plants in Japan alone for Toyota. It really baffles me how many cars this company can produce and how many people buy their cars everyday!

This is at the end of the day, when most of the lot is empty.


Fill in every void space you can imagine with cars, again this one is at the end of their day as well after they loaded most of their cars into ships.


Buddy and I counted retail value on the dock any one day and we came up with 1.6 billion on a full lot...would suck if a toxic rain cloud or hail ever fell here.


These are the ships they load the cars into...roughly 5000 cars per ship give or take a few hundred depending on the type of cars and size of ship...

 

Awesome pictures, i always wondered what is was like in Japan, i enjoyed this post very much. Now, why no pics of the hot asian girls?

Awesome pics KY, I would love to visit Asia sometime

 

Wow, this went a different route quick. Ummm I forgot to mention all the beautiful Asian women. I'd feel like a perv snapping pictures of unknowing women.

Its really nice here. Hotter than hell. Surprisingly I am enjoying the food. I've only tried a couple things that I really didn't like.

Great pics Spoolin!

 

Try sushi while you are there! If i were you, that would be the one thing i would do!
