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.

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.

Post by: Rob52240 on June 16, 2011, 09:43:30 AM: 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.
