ISIS and their Toyota pickups

They're not cave dwellers over there. They have most every car company over there. It could have easily been Chevy or ford as well
 
Really stands as a testament to build quality. An unfortunate consequence to Toyota reliability.

I don't know. First there was the talent competion, then the swimsuit competition and then I said "World Peace" and the next thing I knew I had a crown, sash with moderator on it and a handful of roses...

When I was active duty we called that line of vehicles a "target rich environment." Think the Basra road during Desert Storm. Why there hasn't been an A-10 or an F-15E smoking those vehicles repeatedly I'll never understand. If CNN can find them, surely the US military can as well.

For sure we can find them, track them, and do what we want to them. The gov't does not have the will to deal with the mess.
 
When I was in Saudi as part of Southern Watch it seemed that Crown Vics and old Impalas were everywhere. And the mini pickups with camels riding in the back. It's an interesting country........
 
As far as the tanks are concerned most are T72s that ISIL stole from the Syrian military. I personally never saw any mention of them using US hardware other than the Humvees they took from Mosul when it was all abandoned. When we spotted Humvees it was an automatic approval to destroy. I think I remember 3x T72s that we destroyed along with tons of Russian made APCs and some DSHKAS.

The Crown Vic is the must-have sedan in SA. They LOVE Crown Vics and the Grand Marquis. All my Saudi friends seem to buy these things to use personally over here and end up shipping them back home. I'm trying to resist their offers of a Nissan Patrol shipped over here for 8k. Though I'm not sure what Saudi civilians have to do with ISIS. :P

Dare I say that I find the later ones more appealing than the competing LC. 4.8L Straight 6 and some very serious solid axles front and rear. Though the ones I've been offered to follow the stupid US import laws are from the early 90's, which I definitely do not have a problem with either.

So apparently being a Moderator means you have to be a big a$$, no wonder no one ever asks me if I want to be one! :P

Congrats though.
