I was actually commenting on the aftermarket snorkel air intake on the first pic. Looks so goofy. There are a few Jeeps around here with a similar setup and always think to myself: "whoa, buddy! Be honest: you're not going to be 'fording the river' anytime soon."

It's very rugged... bit like you Moe.

Nothing says rugged like a high strung turbo 4 moving a multi ton truck.

Edit: Also, I pulled that description from Toyota's page, what the hell does it mean to "combine hybrid tech with [a] ... hybrid engine". Double hybrid?

Yeah it’s nuts..Toyota has that 4 cylinder turbo hybrid set up in the new Tacoma, 4Runner and the Land Cruiser. The Lexus equivalent though has a v6.

Meh... I wouldn't know. I drive an SRT Durango with a 392 Hemi... About as interested in hybrids as cutting my bollocks off.
