The Toyota Land Cruiser, the latest model, is the culmination of years of experience all boiled into a single vehicle. It’s really grown to become probably one of the most capable vehicles of its kind out of the box, as you’ll see in the Drive video posted below.
Mike Musto travels to Dubai where he is given the keys to a modified 2013 example that’s fitted with a 4.6-liter V8. It also comes with uprated and customized shocks and obligatory beefy tires too.
The video is not necessarily a showcase of the Land Cruiser, although it does do that too, being more of a look at Dubai’s car culture, or rather dune culture; people show up in all manner of vehicles to mass meets which look dusty and chaotic don’t result in serious accidents and injury as often as you’d think – there are plenty of incidents like this, though.
