    It was OK, but the engine is fairly well protected in any car, and that's all they were really testing. The frame busted completely through in the end, and that might not have happened with a full box framed truck like a Land Rover. It was just an advertisement for Toyota. They should have tested a variety of trucks in the same way (not that Toyotas are bad, they do have a good reputation).

    232 Inline 6.

    It's a 1972 4wd with a postal body, it was used for delivering mail in rural Washington. It's a good design, it's just old and needs some TLC.
