That's a first for me. It looks like Hummer w/ a Toyota symbol slapped on the front. I love it, I wish I could read french, maybe I shoulda payed more attention in high school, then maybe I could know more about it, haha.

That is sweet. It does look like a Hummer w/ a Toyota symbol on it. I really like it. Do they actually make that thing, or is it just a concept vehicle? I would love to have one of them! :fireman:

It used to be available in Japan, and they had it on their website. But I cannot find it now.

That's cool, I want one . Imagine what people would think driving one of those around here in the u.s. Would probably get alot of second looks when the toyota symbol catches their eyes.

I noticed that too. Kinda wimpy in a rig like that. Oh well, whatever floats your boat. I would have thought that Toyota would but at least an 8 in it, maybe a 6. But a 4???? Yeesh! :fireman:

Maybe... but it is a turbo, and it is a diesel... does anyone know the displacement? Also, this thing is made to crawl around with low end torque, not run around town... but yeah... is see yoru point...

hey austin whats up. yeh that thing is pretty nice. i thought the gmc denali was the first 4 wheel steering vehicle available to the public? i guess they dont count cars not avaiable in the us. the 4 cyl deisel may not be enough power, especially in a rig like that. make it a v8 and sell it in the us, and toyota will have something good going for them.. as long as they make it cheaper than the hummer. see ya man.
