That's a nice truck.
It is from South Africa. Rallys are very popular there. I have not seen much rallys in the USA, other than Baja. I miss it - much better than nascar.

I think it's hilarious that my truck probably has bigger, fatter tires on it than the Dakar version

Tire size is limited for 4wd. That is why Robby Gordons Hummers can run larger tires, they are 2wd

the perspective throws it off. probably taken from a helicopter. contrary to what it looks like, they are probably not off camber at all, just going up a hill. got stuck in the sand so they got out the bridging ladders for more traction

ATRAC failed to carry the Hilux through the deep sand so the co-driver had to use the ramp thingys to place under the tires so the tires can have something to grab a hold of to get unstuck.

That's what I was getting at. Couldn't tell for sure. The fact that the guy was holding on to the side made it iffy.

yeah, bizzare angle to take a picture at. you'd probably see sime sidways slide marks in the sand and the downhill tires would be dug in further up the sidewall if it were really that off camber
