    Very old news, but great videos. Tribute to the 22re.

    After spending the night submerged in the salt water it would rust out before it could make the next challenge.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Not a 22 RE, that truck in the video has a 4cyl diesel.

    To be fair, my 22re had plenty of rust issues. The bed was a mess and I had to reinforce the rear frame rails.

    Cool vids for sure.

    As stated, not a 22re, which I personally never understood the hype about. Sure, my '92 pickup never left me stranded, but between timing chains, head gaskets, and rust issues, I wouldn't exactly say it was bulletproof. Being extremely underpowered with mediocre mpg at best also didn't help make up for it. I much prefer my 2nd gen.

    Top gear might possibly be the best show on t.v i have ever seen. BBC just threw away their biggest revenue stream. I read that hammond, may, and clarkson just signed a huge contract with Amazon.

    Thanks for the correction, it had been a while since I had watched the video.

    The Reliant Robin space shuttle episode. Arguably the craziest and most impressive and most expensive episode made.
