New Tactical Tacoma H7

I forgot that you get a map issued to you where all the IED's and ambush sites are when you get in country. I get the whole " we want to be fast and maneuverable" thing. For what it is, it's a neat idea. I wouldn't get in that thing. My feet work just as good. Enough bickering about it.
There is a real tactical vehicle:

Bang on. Just about every vehicle there is white unless it's a motorcycle or a jingle truck.


Jingle Trucks:

 

Interesting

 

Here's a entry from Wikipedia's listing for Tacomas:

During Operation Iraqi Freedom, and Operation Enduring Freedom, multiple Toyota Tacomas have been observed in use by special forces units of the U.S. Army. Typically, they have been Double Cab models, with SR5 and TRD packages.
Despite the fact that the Hilux, from which the Tacoma is descended, is extremely common in the Middle East, the special forces found it to be easier to purchase Tacomas from American dealerships, modify them appropriately, and ship them to their areas. The gasoline engine used is significantly quieter than the diesel engines used in the HMMWV and some Hilux models. These were modified by eliminating the factory radio, along with almost all exterior lights and door buzzers. The front headlights have been modified to work in IR, in order to work with night vision. The engines are unmodified, but the vehicles have been fitted with brush guards, Warn winches, and a rollbar with a machine gun mount.

 

One would assume that if they wanted to blend in over there, they would not use a Tacoma, they would use a Hilux. Unless anyone is positive this if for US troops, my guess 1. Someone with deep pockets 2: Hollywood creation for a movie.??

Seems off to me this is sitting in a dealer showroom floor but is also for SF? I would hope they are smarter than that.....

 

I would love to have that large bed pocket. Probably fit a Scepter jerry can in there. May need a door/lock though.

 

hey i know this is an older thread, but does anyone know, or maybe have an educated guess on the dimensions of the square cubby? i really want to do this and build a custom flush mount toolbox.

 

Interested as well for interior bed storage.

 

I would totally do this bed side mod, was close to tackling it a year ago but now I'm building a roof rack with jerry storage (water), and a double jerry (fuel) on my swingout.

 

where did you get the big bed storage cubbies?
