That snorkel is for 6 inches of water - when he falls over taking too sharp a right turn.

Interesting. Not sure it would be very good if you hit a tree or rock in the mud, probably just break the whole thing.

I am curious how the steering is made on that. Is it all hydraulic or did they fab something up?

Just seems like a death trap.

I actually agree, this looks pretty well built. Not the same "3' steel tube holding the body above the tires."

I agree the green yota is pretty sick prolly what 52s? 4 link rear tube bed, can't tell if those are 60s or 44s, needs bead locks tho...the 4 runner on the other hand is just ridiculous.

Yeah those look like the 52 inch Michelins. It definately looks beast. I also agree it does NOT look NEARLY as WEAK as the 1st gen. I can't believe there is a picture of it (The 1st gen) in the mud!!!
