They way it was bouncing it was only a matter of time, but to get so far then to tilt over, bummer

Hobbit847 says it all.  These are the guys that make cars bounce when they are stationary :P  :P  There are some occasions when bouncing is not good

True but on some of those parts it is a good method of getting round, but you have to balance both methods not rely on just the one

It's a lifted Toyata Land Criuser VX- being American it will be the 5.7 Litre V8 petrol engine version not the 4.2 diesel unit sold here. I've seen it on some websites described as a 4Runner (Hilux Surf) but it's not- it's definately a Land Cruiser.

Still- impressive enough in the rough till it falls over- but then he had touched a cone earlier on the course so was out of the contest anyway! The Americans like their rock 'wheelin' we Brits prefer our mud- mainly because we've got plenty of it!

A link to this video was in the Toyota section of Mud Club forum.
