Im a diesel mechanic and this is our workshop 1hz 70 series, probably the slowest thing I've driven, good for 115 on the flat with no head wind or 130 drafting a road train. Drinks about 20l/100km but still a cool rig
This jappa is the call out truck, I had to go to a minesite 420ish km from workshop for a break down, it will sit on 120kmh on the way there but halve that on the way back due to cows bigger than the bulbar all over the road for 350km after sun down. Most road trains bump them off, this thing would be a write off.
Cruiser after one of the guys was on his way back from a call out and hit a cow at about 80kmh, took out the bulbar, door and guard, bent the rh chassis rail, a bit of a tweak and shes good to go, no WOFs over here
Breakdown 200km from workshop, 15 litre 620hp Cummins shits a turbo pulling 170 tonne in 40-45 degree heat.
bugger all of these back home, live axle 100 series ute, non turbo.
1hdt
We got a couple of these before xmas, v8 turbo diesel, farking awesome, nearly every second vehicle around here is eather the ute or wagon of these.
Yep the Hilux is 4wd and shes not photoshopped.
A company around the corner from us, 700hp Volvos, tri drive, planetry hubs and Volvo I shift auto. These guys don't give a #### and hold them flat everywhere.
One of our Western Stars, tri drive.
