It wouldn't be that hard to weld a couple steel plates on and give it some light armor. Besides I'm sure the truck can take a hit from any bullet smaller then the .22

Yes, the old Hilux was almost indestructable. America can compete when it gets Toyota-North America to make something so indestructable!

Don't need to be good when Silverados are rated the best for hauling, and getting out of deep shit (aka mudd and snow) not to mention Vortec is pretty damn good which is what i love about my 01 silverado.

Anyways we are trying to develop a newer tank smaller, hard-to-hit-target, and faster

This is our Prototype what it should look like anyways.
