Toyota 4x4s in China Pic
I have spent several weeks in China in the last year, and I NEVER see vehicles that are modded. this time, in down town Shanghai these two Toyota 4x4s roll up in front of me... I acted like a fool that had never seen a modified truck before, my Chinese friends must have thought I was nuts.

Are those the real deal? Or one of China' infamous knock-offs.

Is it night time in the pic, or is it just the smog?

I get like that around here haha. Not too many build 4runners around me that I've seen.

See alot of pavement pusher trucks and some jeeps that look like they get the occasional wheeling.

I think I can make out the Toyota badge on the left truck.

It is a landcruiser on the left and some sort of prado on the right with an extra set of lights up high..

Pretty sure at least the one on the left is real, the one on the right is odd but says Toyota.

The left one is a Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero, 1994-96 years, I had one before I got my T4R. Probably has 2.8L turbo inter-cooled diesel. Looks like he is serious about his off-roading by the rear bumper and cladding damage.
