How they off road overseas (Far far far east almost west)

[Singtoe]

Found this vdo on youtube. There is at least one 4runner (Hilux Surf) so it fits in this forum.

Every Yota in the vdo has a SAS.

Check out the MacGuyvier way of in the field welding.

That's pretty intense. They don't play games with their offroading over there.

way cool! good off road video.

Seems like the majority of them don't have lockers, just spinning one wheel. They don't appear to be the biggest Tread Lightly advocates either :flipoff:

 

[SIKHILUXSURF]

not one **** was given.

Thailand? maybe Cambodia?

 

[Singtoe]

Thailand.

FWIW, The jungle will grow 1 foot in a day (during the rainy season). They can cut trails, tear up terrain, wash out river beds and within a week or two, it would look like they were never their.

The rivers going the the jungles are always changing and shifting directions, so what is surveyed this year will absolutely be changed for next year.


I have been on trek through the jungle and it is quite an experience. Most off roaders are well to do and don't mind spending the money to hop it up.

The really well to do sport the Range Rovers, Land Cruisers and H1's.

Btw, Most if not all, of the trucks in the VDO was using Natural gas or Propane on their Diesel engines.

That was way cool, I liked the samurai. It was like the little engine that could.
Was the Jeep the only one that got winched?

 

[SIKHILUXSURF]

yeah it was badass to hear the turbo diesels roar

 

[KidVermicious]

That's some hard core bushwhacking.

 

[Antpwr]

now thats what i call off-road, they really know how to do it over there, wish i could have joined in, love the new body style hilux there, reminds me of my old tacoma, might just have to find another one, anybody have a diesel laying around, lol

 

[Eryan36]

Wow, that's nuts.

 

[bak3rme]

haha, cool vid, but i thought this is how they 4x4'd in Thailand

great country out there, i did a week long trek in the only real national park there, really cool people and the land is amazing, funnily enough they have alot of 4x4's over there and they like their yota's and street glow alot.
i was there during the rainy season and had to get a lift out to the park in a 1st gen taco through some muddy as all hell dirt road through the jungle, was a very memorable experience....sorry just a big fan of that country, they don't call it the land of a 1,000 smiles for nothing.....
