    Relentless Armored! Too many others to list.
    I guess I'm curious as to why such new vehicles are being used for targets? Surely an older truck would suffice...

    Maybe because it's similar to a Toyota Hilux which is a likely target in real world situations...

    Whenever a lemon is bought back, or there are production vehicles that fail testing, they are removed from the road. Toyota does the same thing that GM and others do with these vehicles: Send them to training schools so that students can work on real, late model vehicles, or to the military for "drone targets"

    What's $25k for a target when you're testing $85k missiles off a $7million drone?
