    This is definitely not a Tacoma or a 4x4, but I can say that snow will break shit. I have wheeled in it and raced in it. You can have real nice powdered snow on top of solid ice. Hitting that shit will destroy an axle. Trust me I have been there. This is 2L 8000 rpm VW baja, it lived to break axles. It's that skinny pedal that will get you in trouble faster than you can think.

    I have been wheeling since the 70s, and if I didn't actually see this image, I would not believe it. How fast was that guy going? It's one thing for the OP to break that axle and housing, that makes sense, but pulling out the entire rear end? I'm blown away.

    CONTEXT. Just use your head for one second. That's all it takes to not make an ass of yourself.
