Great video of the 200 series in Africa put together by Toyota South Africa
Anyone who thinks the 200 series is not a "real cruiser" needs to see these trucks in action in places like this.
 
Great vid thanks for sharing it. I do love SW Africa. I have yet to see any 200 owner with this sentiment. It has turned into an NFC filter for me at this point :)
 
@4:44 that looks like an RC car tearing down the dune. I would love to be sitting shotgun in that ride. With a Depends on.
 
I heart the Namib. I would LOVE to rip around there in a 200 :cool:

I was there in a slightly more slumberous Cruiser

I wonder if those were completely stock, and what wheel/tire setups they were using.

From the looks of them...they had to be either stock, or EXTREMELY CLOSE to stock. Just look at this huge stock wheels... Ugh! They clearly did OK...though I did notice that they mostly showed slow downhills through the mushy sand, and the up-hills tended to be flying up huge, fast hills. I think they would have struggled if they needed a slower climb in the soft stuff (with turns, and such). But still... it was impressive considering how stock these looked.
