Not as flashy as some of their other concept cars but it looks pretty functional. I'll definitely pick one up at the Toyota dealer in town when they've got 'em in stock. Will I be able to get rockets at gas stations now?

No no no no... It's has to be a late 80's to mid 90's truck.  None of this new fangled, rust-free stuff

Pfft, they are stealing an old idea. But I like the weapons upgrade.

If it weren't for the arabic writing on the side I would've guessed it was some hunting contraption from the southern US?

As the owner of a Toyota pickup, I am starting to feel a bit uneasy with how often they seem to turn up as improvised military vehicles in third world conflicts.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I think it's a testament to how fine their automobiles are manufactured and designed, thinking along the lines of the AK-47. (I'm remembering that Top Gear episode right now  :lol) And I don't for a moment believe Toyota endorses nor pursues business with terrorists. It's not Samsung's fault their cellphones are used to make bombs, it's not Toyota's fault their vehicles are used as mobile rocket platforms.

Reminds me of when Top Gear thought that since groups of 3rd world guys in their street clothes riding around in the back of a toyota pickup are the only thing that can bog down the US armed forces.  So let's test one to destruction.

Here's the can it survive a building implosion test.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfZDtC9kjVk&NR=1&feature=fvwp

OSHA would not approve. I'm pretty sure they aren't wearing safety glasses either.
