Hilux Arctic Challenge
Link to an article about an ice bound Hilux. Cool I thought. Wish we could get a diesel here in the states.

If you havn't watched the episode...well...just watch it. Jeremy is brutal on the truck, real testament to the quality of both the Hilux/Tacoma and apparently those crazy Nord's who built up the truck.

I wonder how it would have differed if they used a domestic truck for that task...
