This video is the pinacle of Toyotas. I saw it when they did it on TV and I was picking my jaw up off the floor for a week. This thread should be stickified for all to see!

That's actually how I found it...I noticed that you were looking at my Rig Gallery thread and I was checking to see if you were posting and it said viewing this thread so followed along to see if it was interesting.

Mystery solved, I had forgotten.

Wow, I can't believe this was posted 1 year ago and I never saw it. That is simply amazing. I wonder what damage the building fall did to the truck. They just quickly showed it running and that was it. I bet like the rear driveline got bent, radiator got punchered, etc..

That is a really great movie. I would love to see them do that with a Jeep and maybe a Samurai hahahah

It could be said that Jeep owners work that hard on a daily basis to start their trucks  :rofl2:

My dad and I saw it on tv when I was at his house last year, and we were both laughing in amazement!  It was frickin hilarious!  But don't anybody fret about them using a rare toyota diesel, they're a lot less rare there than they are here.  We just got boned on that one.
RIP KYOTA

yeah it was really funny, I was talking to the guys I was showing at the time about how I'd just love to have that diesel in my truck.  I would be interested to see how that would've done with a 22 motor in it.  All I know it that I will show that movie to anyone who thinks my truck is junk.  I'm taking Collision Repair at College right now and I tried showing it to our class but the computer that is hooked up to the Projector didn't work with the file.  I am going to try it again next week.  I can't wait to show it to all the chevy guys in the class who are always giving me crap about my toyota.  I hope it shuts them up.

You can show it to them, but chevy/ford guys will take their turds to the grave!  Rarely will they admit that they might now have the best vehicles made, but I have seen it done.  An older coworker of mine has been die-hard ford forever, but when he bought his last vehicle he checked out a toyota solara and was like :yikes: , and couldn't stop talking about how much smoother and nicer it was than the fords and other cars he'd driven.
