Toyota Unser owners. As befitting the Unser being a lifestyle vehicle, the Funser was a lifestylecommunity .The evolution of the Funser community
In 2005, Funser was renamed to Tribe
Toyota and grew to include all lifestyle vehicles in that time:RAV4 ,Hilux ,Avanza ,Innova ,Wish andFortuner . The community’s offerings were also improved, and events increased to 4 per year.In 2006, UMW Toyota Motor built Toyota Owner's Journal [http://www.toyotaownersjournal.com.my] , a site that all Malaysian Toyota owners can log on to, to check the details of the Toyota vehicles they own. In effect, it was an online logbook of all things related to their car.
