I remember the episode of Top Gear when they used those trucks. I thought the same thing. Those things are bad a$$.

I'll continue to be stupid and buy GM, but thanks.

If those numbers come up I think, Unimog.

Arnolds Old Sled will do..

Thumbs up

Have Ferman put his hands on that turbo-diesel in the MOG. All others run for cover. LOL!

I sat in a Tundra once, it seemed like all the other high end Japanese trucks. Land Cruiser comes to mind. Too much foo foo, I still don't get it, I will probably never own a JEEP either. Different strokes..

X2.. Unimog. (Perhaps a little customization in the cabin... stereo upgrade, leather captains chairs,, carpets etc, but Unimog all the way).

Oh, and since we're talking badass... lets not forget Pinzgauer. God I'd love to get my hands on one of them...

If your just talking WANTS I will take a Minzi Muck and maybe convert it over from an excavator to a people hauler. I don't even know why, I just want one...

That series (on the Hilux) was what introduced me to Top Gear. I was immediately hooked. Too bad it's gone.

(BTW, I had a 2nd generation 4Runner for 17 years, sold it and bought a used Sequoia, and I also have a '69 Land Cruiser work-in-progress -- when I can find the time to work on it!)

TOP GEAR is still around, but will have a new host. The guys from TOP GEAR will be back next year with a show on AMAZON prime. And ole Arnie had a JEEP WAGONEER with a DURAMAX in it that was pretty sweet.

never seen or heard of this show but what an a$$hole. that was a cute little truck with tons of life left. I would have had no problem driving it around for a few thousand miles.
