Here is a poor quality pic of an Aussie SAS Land Rover in Afghanistan. I believe it's pretty much a 110 frame with the extra rear axle driven by a PTO from the tcase and powered by an Isuzu 3.9 litre turbo diesel. Looks like a decent desert rig. Hope it does its job preventing al Queda members from escape :)

From the little video and shots I've seen, the Afghanis love to get around in those crew cab toyotas.

Yeah, I keep seeing Crew-Cab Toyota Hilux all over the News...with guns in hand.

The other day here in Austin I saw a real old little Toyota crew-cab duelly (spelling?).

Funny looking little thing, nothing compared to our HUGE American duellies.
