The show is an acquired taste. Being a fan of old English iron, this was one of my favorite segments:

It's the main reason I told my wife to sign up when AMAZON did there $67 for a year subscription earlier this year. Plus she's a teacher, and buys all sorts of school supplies on there, and gets em all within 2 days with prime shipping. Keeps her from having to drive the 30 miles down to Tampa to buy stuff every few weeks.

There's a guy on 4Runner.org from Iceland I believe that has a 2nd gen 4Runner set up with tires like those in the OP.

Those trucks are too nice and too new to cut up that way in my opinion.

Currently have a 2nd gen 4Runner myself, have had 4 toyotas total, will always have at least one. Would like an older tundra to pull the V, but probably out of my price range. Have considered keeping my eyes open for a clean, mostly unmolested/lightly modified 80's model that has been babied, or easier to find-- rebuilt and spend the money. The older ones are going up in value.

One of the main reasons the one in the top gear vids survived so long is because it had a diesel engine, very hard to find and coveted in the U.S. A gas engine, even a 22R wouldn't have cranked that easily without major help. Another guy on 4Runner.org had a CLEAN 2nd gen '90 model 4Runner with a diesel and wanted $10K firm for it.

I'm a chevy/gmc guy myself Ridge, but don't like the idea of buying their newer stuff since the bailouts.
