I kind of thought the diesel engine had something to do with it.

If they see this, they'll say it was the roll bar that did it all.

Amazing story, thanks for the links!

Huh, first I've seen it. Shows the power of a well written headline, or the length of my attention span.

Also, my post was in good humor. Please don't think I am a pissy poster. I think its an awesome video, but its been posted, and I believe it is in the offroad and 4x4 video section up top.

No worries, mate. I'm mostly an off-topic poster since selling my 'Runner, so I miss a lot of good stuff in other forums.

Man I must of missed this one. Great video!!! Gotta love the brits. When I was over there all that you ever saw on the farms were them Deisel Hilux's. I remember at the racetrack I used to go to they used one to recover cars when the wrecked. It was so hashed and it kept going and going.

Thumbs up The All Mighty Toyota - Awesome Video

This video is 15 minutes long, but well worth it.

Topgear - Toyota Hilux

It requires Real Player

I thought the video was great, makes me feel even better when I'm driving in my Toyota.

That was awesome!!



I had never seen that video. I think that if anyone is ever thinking of purchasing a new or used Toyota, this should be required viewing.

Thanks for the "repost". Some of us don't read every single post, every single day. I would have missed this, which was awesome. Thanks again.
