    When Top Gear chained the thing down to go through a cycle of the tides in the fucking North Atlantic and their mechanics could restart the thing on the fucking beach…

    That’s when I became a believer.

    Ah fuck this brings up memories, we had a hylux that we shared in the company that was mostly used for bringing people to and from the flightline. Since it was a manual, I was one of the ones that could drive it. I loved cruising along the runway at night, listening to the one radio station with the windows down as helicopters and planes were taking off and landing. I loved that truck.

    Is that the one Marty got at the end of BTTF? Although I think his truck looked more square-ish.
