Won't someone please introduce the US Army to the Toyota Hilux? People on that cheap truck have been busting the ass of the various US supported states for decades, yet we remain oblivious.
This latest 10,000 pound JLTV slug will doubtless fare just as well against the 4,000 pound Hilux as its predecessor did.
