Here are some Toyota Hilux trucks that are built for arctic adventures in Iceland. I can't seem to find the Top Gear episode on youtube anymore, I remember it got deleted once so its probably not going to be back. But here are some clips from the Top Gear arctic challege episode:

The bed is also 3rd gen, I´ve had two 3rd gen DCs with tiedown hooks on the bedsides. IIRC these beds are only on the diesels.

awesome thread fourtysixandtwo  Someday an expedition rig would be really cool to own.  Oh and the Top Gear Episode is AWESOME.  I have all the Top Gear episodes and for those of you that haven't seen Top Gear you're missing out.

Thanks! Definitely would love to turn one of those 70 Series troopies into an expedition rig. They are so cool. Top Gear is definitely a sweet show, the Arctic Adventure, Destroying a Hilux and the Driving on Water episodes are probably two of my favorites but the show itself is bad ass for sure.

Just using US terminology.  Those beds were only on 1st gens here, and a few 2nd gens (2wd only I believe, but not positive)  :gap:

I think it has less to do with laws and emissions as it does the market. The US market is unique in a lot of ways, the automotive market is just one example. The rest of the world demands hard use, reliability, and longevity. The American auto market demands luxury and idiot-proof vehicles that make driving skills and prowess behind the wheel obsolete. Honestly, where else in the world will you find cars that PARALLEL park themselves????

Um, Germany? I think that's where they come from so I would assume you can get them just about anywhere.

True, true...  I think some of the cars are stupid.  I personally enjoy the challenge of parallel parking, I usually am able to fit my toyota pickup in spots most cars are affraid to park.  It's actually nice to know how to park.  I can always find a spot in my 2 door toyota echo.

Such a sick thread. Makes me jealous of these other countries who got the diesels, double cabs, and the beds with hooks.  :drool:
