''You didn't mention it was 16 minutes!''

I implied it when I said 'if you've got broadband'

That's one tough truck! Back in the early 80's some friends had 4x4 Toyo pickups. Only thing they could kill was the clutches....

while i was in japan our shop pooled together and bought a lil toyata 4x4 diesel van!!! that thing was tough as hell, and even tasted the salt water, and it wouldnt die. when we left, we couldnt even give it away. but it ran great. we had to pay the junk yard to take it!!
i dont cear what anyone says, those lil toyota's are a good lil truck, and those diesel run for ever! but i will keep my CTD

So.....................How would our CTD's hold up under the same tests?

I suggest that BigBlue donate his truck for the test of all tests, so we can find out once for all the answer to that very question!!


You have to admit that is one tuff Toyota.
