    What truck was this? Found these photos on CNN, covering the story. Seems to have an ARB Bumper. Don't make this a political thread, I'm just trying to identify the truck.

    I'm thinking 98-02 Land Cruiser?

    "A burnt vehicle is seen at the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, on Wednesday, September 12, one day after armed men stormed the compound and launched a rocket-propelled grenade. The resulting fire left U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and and three other Americans dead. Stevens was trying to leave the consulate building for a safer location as part of an evacuation when gunmen launched an intense attack, apparently forcing security personnel to withdraw."

    Leave it to a truck forum to take a picture from a bombing, and analyze the type of vehicle is in the pic. :D
