Trying To Kill A HILUX 2.4D Toyota

This is why I own a Toyota. :thumb:

It's amazing that it's been able to withstand that abuse for 11 years now.

That's why I can't find a red pickup. They keep destroying all of them.

It's not destroyed. It works fine.

That is straight up destroyed. Yes, the engine runs... kinda. The frame is anything but straight and the drive line is anything but reliable. But there is a difference between destroyed and dead. That truck may not be dead but it's destroyed.

They drove it onto the stage under its own power. It works. The frame being cracked in half at the back of the cab is completely irrelevant.

The frame being cracked in half at the back of the cab.

Two frames means twice as strong, right?

Imagine a hydraulic flex point there. Your approach/departure/breakover angles would be insane.

It;ll "buff out"
That's what the 1st 4Runner was based on.
Loved the old pull & twist parking brake.
Looks just like my old '89.

No way ever any domestic would survive that abuse.
