California Cruise in Düsseldorf, offered in short- and long-wheelbase forms with 79 kWh and 86 kWh batteries respectively, sleeping accommodation for two, and first deliveries due in early 2027 from €60,761 (about $70,800). Standard kit includes the Interior Style and Comfort Packages plus the PowerSocket vehicle-to-load adapter, which delivers 2 kW continuous and 3.6 kW peak power, while California Mode keeps USB ports live and air conditioning running at sleeping temperature for up to 48 hours depending on charge and outside conditions.MERCEDES-AMG CLA 45 IS A DIFFERENT BEASTThe electric Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 saloon is on sale in the UK at £66,750 (about $90,660), matching the outgoing petrol car's price and undercutting the plug-in hybrid C63 by £34,000 for comparable output, with the Shooting Brake £1000 more and the Hyundai Ioniq 6 N its nearest rival at £65,800. Three Yasa axial-flux motors produce 671bhp for a 3.0sec 0-62mph time in the 2.3-tonne saloon, with claimed ranges of 416 and 398 miles, 330kW charging giving 10-80% in 22 minutes, a rear-axle drift mode, and deliveries starting next year.51% OF U.S. CONSUMERS WOULD CONSIDER A CHINA-MADE VEHICLEA Dave Cantin Group market outlook report found 51% of U.S. consumers would consider a China-made vehicle despite Chinese brands not being sold there, with willingness at 77% among under-35s versus 36% among those 55 and older, driven by affordability as average transaction prices sit near $50,000 and monthly payments run far above five-year-ago levels. Chinese brands have taken roughly 10% share in Europe and Mexico in under five years, a pace that took Japanese and Korean makers nearly two decades, and the resulting collapse in established automakers' China business, combined with the EV unwind and tariffs, is already reshaping product and production decisions with direct consequences for U.S. dealers.ELECTRIFIED MODELS FILL JULY'S FASTEST-SELLING USED-CAR TOP 10For the first time since Autotrader UK began tracking the data, no petrol or diesel model appeared in July's 10 fastest-selling used cars, with eight BEVs and two hybrids from MG and Toyota filling the list, led by the hybrid MG ZS at 13 days, the Kia Niro at 15 and the Tesla Model 3 at 17. A year earlier BEVs held only four of the ten places, and July's slowest-selling used models were entirely petrol and diesel, with no BEV among them.TERRA CHARGE PLANS 2,500 NACS POINTS IN JAPANJapan's Terra Charge will begin adding NACS charging from 2028 at commercial sites, major transport routes and hotels, targeting 2,500 points by the end of 2033 and studying a NACS-based AC charger for hotels and apartment blocks, though no specifications or timeline have been disclosed. The move responds partly to Tesla driver demand reported by Nikkei Asia, but with only 1,323 registered NACS points against roughly 68,000 charging points nationally, most on CHAdeMO, and a government goal of 300,000 points by 2030, NACS will add connector variety rather than displace the incumbent standard.DCBEL PLATFORM ADOPTED IN THREE V2X PILOTSDcbel's bidirectional charging platform has been selected for three V2X pilots — California's REDWDS scheme, a PG&E programme and a MassCEC demonstration — offering drivers and fleets equipment funding, lower bills and payments of up to $3,200 per vehicle per year for exporting energy to the grid. The economics depend on vehicle-to-grid export, yet customers have so far opted for vehicle-to-home installations, dcbel had shipped nothing under the programmes at the time of reporting, and most jurisdictions still prohibit grid export altogether.KGM RAISES MUSSO EV AWD TOWING RATINGKGM has lifted the all-wheel-drive Musso EV dual-cab ute's braked towing rating from 1,800kg to 2,300kg, exceeding the 2,000kg rating of Toyota's AWD electric Hilux. The revision undercuts the claim made by former prime minister Scott Morrison during the 2019 Australian election that EVs could not tow a trailer or boat to a camping spot, an argument that became part of the climate culture war, though what any BEV can tow still rests on the rating its manufacturer assigns.PSW WINS ESTONIA FERRY MCS CONTRACTNorway's PSW Power & Automation will equip Estonia's Virtsu–Kuivastu route with a Megawatt Charging System of two charging points at each end, each rated up to 5 MW on a 1,500-volt architecture, to recharge the country's new battery-electric ferry during port stops before its scheduled completion by the end of 2028. The ferry will carry 380 passengers and either 110 cars or eight lorries, making it smaller than the incumbent Piret and Toll, while the charging system will also be open to other compatible vessels, drawing on PSW's Nordic record of more than 250 MW of shore power and over 100 MWh of battery storage.WAYMO SAYS L2 IS INSUFFICIENT FOR L4Waymo has published 10 AI lessons drawn from over 200 million fully autonomous miles, arguing that incrementally improving a Level 2 driver-assistance system is a "false summit" that cannot safely reach Level 4, because neither billions of simulated miles nor millions of supervised miles replicate operating without a human backup. The company, which runs more than 500,000 paid driverless rides a week and targets a million by year-end, uses camera, lidar and radar redundancy and warns against black-box end-to-end networks, in contrast to Tesla's camera-only Tesla Vision, its end-to-end Full Self-Driving versions 14 and 15, and an Austin robotaxi service that has logged 380,000 unsupervised miles.

Si eres de los que piensa que las guerras solo se ganan con tanques de sesenta toneladas o cazas a reacción, hoy vas a descubrir que estás muy equivocado. A veces, la victoria viaja en el asiento de un taxi, en un Rolls-Royce cruzando dunas o en una humilde pick-up japonesa humillando a blindados soviéticos. Hoy descubrimos a verdaderos héroes: coches civiles que se pusieron el uniforme y cambiaron el destino del mundo. La guerra es fundamentalmente un problema de movilidad y logística. "Los aficionados hablan de táctica; los profesionales hablan de logística", dicen los generales. Y es en ese terreno, en el de mover gente y cosas bajo el fuego enemigo, donde el automóvil ha jugado un papel de protagonista. 1. Renault AG1: El milagro del Marne (1914) En septiembre de 1914, la Primera Guerra Mundial acababa de estallar y el ejército alemán avanzaba como una apisonadora hacia París. Para realizar un contraataque crítico, el general Joseph Gallieni necesitaba trasladar urgentemente a la 7ª División de Infantería, pero los ferrocarriles estaban colapsados. Gallieni ordenó requisar todos los taxis de París. Se reunieron unos seiscientos vehículos, la inmensa mayoría Renault AG1 con motores bicilíndricos de apenas nueve caballos. Viajando de noche, en convoy y sin luces, los taxistas transportaron a seis mil hombres de refuerzo en veinticuatro horas exactas. Fue la primera vez en la historia que el motor de explosión ganó una batalla. 2. Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost: La toma de Damasco (1918) En el desierto de Arabia, Lawrence de Arabia necesitaba golpear rápido a las fuerzas del Imperio Otomano. El Almirantazgo británico envió una unidad de nueve Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost blindados. El coche más refinado del mundo se enfrentó al entorno más hostil. Su chasis robustísimo y su motor de seis cilindros y siete litros demostraron una fiabilidad legendaria. Durante la carrera hacia Damasco, un Rolls apodado "Blue Mist" rompió las ballestas de la suspensión. En mitad del desierto, los mecánicos lo arreglaron usando tablones de madera y cuerdas de camellos; el coche siguió combatiendo y entró victorioso en Damasco. 3. Citroën Traction Avant: La batalla de las calles (1944) Durante la Insurrección de París en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el Citroën Traction Avant se convirtió en el arma definitiva de la Resistencia francesa. Gracias a su innovadora tracción delantera, chasis monocasco y un centro de gravedad bajísimo, gozaba de una estabilidad en curva insuperable. En las estrechas calles de París, permitía a los partisanos atacar controles alemanes y huir a toda velocidad tomando giros cerrados donde los pesados vehículos de tracción trasera enemigos habrían derrapado o volcado. 4. Willys MB del SAS: El Raid de Sidi Haneish (1942) El SAS operaba en el Norte de África destruyendo los aviones de la Luftwaffe en tierra. Para ello, modificaron salvajemente los Jeeps Willys MB: quitaron parabrisas para evitar reflejos, mejoraron la refrigeración y montaron ametralladoras Vickers K gemelas. En el asalto al aeródromo de Sidi Haneish, dieciocho Jeeps cargaron en línea recta por la pista principal a sesenta kilómetros por hora, destruyendo treinta y siete aviones enemigos confirmados en una sola noche gracias a su increíble maniobrabilidad. 5. Studebaker US6: La apisonadora del Este (1943-1945) En el Frente Oriental, el camión americano Studebaker US6 revolucionó la logística soviética bajo la Ley de Préstamo y Arriendo. Su tracción 6x6 y su duro motor Hércules JXD permitieron montarle los famosos lanzacohetes Katyusha ("Órganos de Stalin"). A diferencia de los camiones rusos que se atascaban en el barro, el Studebaker avanzaba por terrenos imposibles, permitiendo una letal táctica de "fuego y movimiento" que evitaba la contrarréplica alemana. 6. Toyota Hilux: La guerra de los Toyota (1987) En el conflicto entre Chad y Libia, el ejército libio contaba con blindados pesados y tanques soviéticos T-55. Chad, con menos recursos, montó misiles antitanque franceses MILAN en las cajas de carga de camionetas comerciales Toyota Hilux de cuarta generación. En la Batalla de Fada, las Hilux rodeaban a los tanques a cien kilómetros por hora, superando la velocidad de giro de sus torretas. Además, gracias a su ligereza y velocidad constante, lograban cruzar los campos de minas enemigos sin activarlos, ya que la rueda pasaba antes de que el detonador reaccionara. Chad aplastó a la columna libia perdiendo solo tres Toyotas, bautizando oficialmente el conflicto como "La Guerra de los Toyota". En conclusión, la historia no solo la escriben los vencedores, sino también los ingenieros que diseñan máquinas capaces de aguantar el trato más inhumano. No fueron diseñados para la guerra, pero la fiabilidad y la adaptación los convirtieron en leyenda.

President Cyril Ramaphosa het Toyota Suid-Afrika se belegging van 10 miljard Suid-Afrikaanse rand in die negende generasie Hilux verwelkom en beskryf dit as 'n sterk mosie van vertroue in die land se ekonomie. Ramaphosa het aanlyn gepraat tydens die amptelike bekendstelling by die Prospecton-aanleg in KwaZulu-Natal en gesê die belegging sal werksgeleenthede ondersteun, plaaslike vervaardiging versterk en uitvoere bevorder. Hy het ook die regering se verbintenis herbevestig tot die verbetering van infrastruktuur, die bevordering van plaaslike vervaardiging en die skep van 'n bestendige omgewing om verdere beleggings te lok:

Neues Design trifft auf gesteigerte Funktionalität Das Exterieur folgt dem Designkonzept „robust und agil“ und verbindet hervorragende und bewährte Geländetauglichkeit mit einem modernen, dynamischen Auftritt. Eine markante Frontpartie, ein neues Leuchtendesign und eine kraftvolle Seitenlinie sorgen für eine deutlich stärkere Präsenz. Gleichzeitig wurde die Alltagstauglichkeit weiter verbessert. Hilux 48V-Mildhybrid: Effizienz und Leistungsfähigkeit im Fokus Der 2,8l-Dieselmotor mit 48V-Mildhybridsystem stellt den zentralen Antrieb der neuen Generation dar. Er kombiniert eine maximale Leistung von 150 kW/204 PS mit einem Drehmoment von 500 Nm und überzeugt durch verbesserten Verbrauch und reduzierte Emissionen. Hilux BEV: vollelektrische Innovation im Pick-up-Segment Mit dem Hilux BEV feiert erstmals ein vollelektrischer Hilux sein Debüt. Das Modell kombiniert einen batterieelektrischen Antrieb mit der für den Hilux typischen Leiterrahmenbauweise verfügt über permanenten Allradantrieb mit zwei Elektromotoren und eine elektrische Reichweite von bis zu 257 km, (EAER) innerorts sogar (EAER City) bis zu 380 km.

It's EV News Briefly for Friday 15 May 2026, everything you need to know in less than 5 minutes if you haven't got time for the full show.Patreon supporters fund this show, get the episodes ad free, as soon as they're ready and are part of the EV News Daily Community. You can be like them by clicking here: https://www.patreon.com/EVNewsDailyJD POWER SAYS EV INTEREST IS HOLDING UPConsumer interest in EVs remained steady despite plateauing sales, with 26% of new-vehicle shoppers in April 2026 saying they were "very likely" to consider an EV — up 3 points month on month — partly driven by rising fuel costs. Charging availability remained the top barrier at 46%, though concerns around cost and charging time all eased year on year.HONDA SWINGS TO LOSS AS HYBRID STRATEGY HARDENSHonda posted its first operating loss since going public in 1957, recording a ¥414.3 billion ($2.6 billion) operating loss for the fiscal year ended March 2026, driven by ¥1.57 trillion in EV-related write-offs. CEO Toshihiro Mibe abandoned the 2040 combustion-free target and pivoted to 15 new hybrid models through 2030, with two prototypes — a fastback sedan and a red crossover — unveiled in Tokyo on May 14.SLATE AUTO PLANS 392 MICHIGAN JOBSSlate Auto plans to add 392 jobs and invest $10.4 million at its Troy, Michigan headquarters over five years, nearly doubling its Michigan workforce ahead of its low-cost electric pickup launch later in 2026. The Bezos-backed company, now led by CEO Peter Faricy following a leadership change in March, will focus new roles on engineering, design, and R&D, with positions starting at $43 per hour.TOYOTA HILUX ADDS EV FOR 2026Toyota will launch the ninth-generation Hilux in 2026 with both a fully electric and a diesel version, with the electric model reaching UK customers first in June in Icon (£52,845 after grant) and Invincible (£55,695 after grant) trims. Both electric variants qualify for the UK government's £5,000 plug-in van grant and come in a Double Cab body style, with a two-seat commercial conversion to follow later in 2026.VAUXHALL MATCHES EV AND DIESEL VAN PRICESVauxhall has achieved finance and lease price parity between the electric and diesel versions of its Combo and Vivaro vans, with the Combo Electric available from £305 per month and the Vivaro Electric from £335 per month — both matching their diesel equivalents on 36-month, 10,000-mile terms. The parity has been extended to the Astra and Frontera passenger cars as part of a wider brand strategy to remove the cost barrier to electrification.TRATON RAISES €850 MILLION FOR EV DRIVEVolkswagen-majority-owned Traton Group has raised €850 million to accelerate battery-electric drivetrain development across MAN, Scania, International, and Volkswagen Truck & Bus. Battery-electric vehicle sales across the group grew to 1.4% of total sales in Q1 2026, up from 0.9% in Q1 2025, with MAN and Scania both expanding their electric lineups.RENAULT CLAIMS EDGE OVER CHINESE RIVALSRenault CEO François Provost claimed the group's European manufacturing efficiency surpasses Chinese rivals, while acknowledging it still uses Chinese supply chains and a China development centre to bring new models to market in under 24 months. With French and European plants running at 85% capacity and momentum from models like the electric Renault 5, Renault is deepening ties with Nissan — both holding 15% stakes in each other — while Nissan's CEO signalled desire for a closer partnership.BYD ATTO 2 DM-I PRICED FOR UKBYD has confirmed UK pricing for the Atto 2 DM-i plug-in hybrid SUV, with orders opening 2 June 2026 and first deliveries in August. The Active trim starts at £26,995 with a 7.8kWh battery and 24 miles of EV range, while the Boost costs £29,995 with an 18kWh battery and up to 55 miles of EV range.OMODA-JAECOO MAKES A FAST UK STARTJaecoo and Omoda launched in the UK in March 2025 with immediate impact — the Jaecoo 7 became that month's best-selling car, and by year-end over 26,000 units had sold, making it the fourth most popular retail car in the UK. The brand reached a 1.4% UK market share, ahead of Seat and Suzuki, built on Range Rover Evoque-inspired styling, competitive pricing, and strong dealer incentives.POLESTAR SAYS FUEL SHOCK DRIVES EV DEMANDPolestar CEO Michael Lohscheller said "pump anxiety" has overtaken "range anxiety" as the key driver of EV consideration, with WTI and Brent crude up 50% since late February due to disruption at the Strait of Hormuz. Polestar is seeing rising demand for both new and used EVs as a result, though eroding US tax incentives and broader cost pressures continue to make the American market challenging.

Die 58ste Nampo Oesdag sluit vandag af. Dit was 'n besige week by Nampo-park net buite Bothaville in die Vrystaat, veral met die tema "Veerkragtigheid deur Innovasie" en die massiewe Toyota-wêreldrekordpoging vir die Hilux-byeenkoms wat vroeër hierdie week plaasgevind het. Pieter Moller, die bekende radiojoernalis, het met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus gesels.

This week on Oil & Whiskey, we sit down with Jasmine Green, better known as @six_four_stout.If you've seen her work, you already know. Some of the cleanest metal shaping and fabrication out there right now, all coming out of a shed in Australia.Jasmine walks us through how it all started, from getting into mini trucks with her first Hilux to building her now well-known Toyota Stout. What began as a simple project quickly turned into something much bigger, pushing her skills in metal shaping, design, and fabrication further than expected.We get into her process, learning as she goes, figuring things out without everything planned, and the mindset it takes to tackle builds at this level. A lot of the work you see is not mapped out ahead of time. It's built piece by piece through creativity and problem solving.

In our fortieth deployment of BungleTech, Michael and I take a trip to Japan as we dive into a brian cache of Japanese BattleTech releases recently unearthed by members of the community in our primary topic segment and ask ourselves the question: is this even BattleTech or have we wandered into some Tetatae adjacent alternative BattleTech timeline? Strap in as we tour a place where familiar 'Mechs sport unfamiliar silhouettes.

Repaying debt, buying new farm machinery, splashing out on a holiday or even purchasing a classic Hilux. Those are some of the ways Fonterra's farmer-shareholders plan to spend Tuesday's major capital return. Farmers have received an average $400,000 each for their share of the sale of the company's consumer brands to French company Lactalis. Anna Sargent reports.

We got your feedback, so there's more VAN TALK this week - with the KIA option coming soon! Plus Subaru has new EVs coming and even TOYOTA has gone EV on the HILUX!! Pigs can fly! Christine's looking for a hatchback in Melbourne - ready to become an EV owner. Mitch is loving his BYD Atto 1 - thinks it was like buying an iPhone! And our review of the Deepal E07! A ute? A wagon? Or something so much different?

Vivimos en una era automovilística marcada por la eficiencia extrema, la reducción de costes y la complejidad electrónica. Nos hemos acostumbrado a los motores tricilíndricos de un litro, bloques de aluminio con paredes finas como papel de fumar y turbos que exprimen hasta el último caballo de potencia a costa de la longevidad. En este episodio contamos con el apoyo de O2. Tienes más información sobre todo lo que ofrecen en: https://o2online.es/ Sin embargo, hubo un tiempo en que la palabra "obsolescencia" no figuraba en los diccionarios de ingeniería. Hubo una época en la que los motores se diseñaban para sobrevivir a sus dueños. 1. Chrysler "Slant Six" 225 (1959 - 2000) En 1959, mientras Detroit se obsesionaba con los V8, Chrysler perfeccionaba su seis cilindros en línea. Su nombre proviene de su inclinación de 30 grados, una decisión que permitió capós más bajos y colectores de admisión mucho más eficientes. 2. Peugeot-Indenor XD (1959 - 1992) Este diésel es la leyenda que motorizó África. Es común ver unidades en el Sáhara que, pese al estado estético del vehículo, mantienen un ciclo de combustión perfecto. 3. Volvo B18-B20 (1961 - 1975) Este motor ostenta el récord Guinness de kilometraje (más de 5 millones de km en un P1800). Volvo priorizó la solidez estructural sobre la potencia bruta. 4. Ford 300 Inline Six (1965 - 1996) Considerado por muchos como el mejor motor de Detroit, este 4.9 litros es un tractor civilizado para camionetas. 5. BMW M30 (1968 - 1994) El "Gran Seis" demostró que la fiabilidad no está reñida con el lujo. Fue la base que cimentó la reputación de la marca bávara. 6. Mercedes-Benz OM617 (1974 - 1991) El patriarca del club. Este cinco cilindros diésel es el responsable de la fama de los Mercedes W123, los taxis que parecen no morir jamás. 7. Toyota Serie 22R/RE (1981 - 1997) El corazón de la Hilux. Este motor sobrevivió a las pruebas de Top Gear (incluyendo el desplome de un edificio) por una razón técnica clara: simplicidad masiva. 8. Cummins 6BT 5.9 (1984 - 2007) Más que un motor de camioneta, es una pieza de maquinaria pesada. Montado en las Dodge RAM, es el favorito de los que remolcan cargas extremas. 9. Nissan TD42 (1987 - 2007) El "Diésel Negro" australiano. Es el motor de elección para quienes cruzan desiertos donde una avería es una sentencia de muerte. 10. Volkswagen 1.9 TDI (1991 - 2010) El último de los mohicanos antes de las restrictivas normas Euro. Es el equilibrio perfecto entre eficiencia moderna y robustez antigua. Conclusión ¿Qué lección nos dejan estas diez leyendas? Que la verdadera fiabilidad nace de la sencillez y del respeto por las leyes de la física. Cuando no se exige al metal trabajar cerca de su punto de fatiga o de su límite térmico, la mecánica se vuelve inmortal.

The company will cut prices, trim costs, and increase marketing to regain momentum heading into 2026.Q3 results saw unit sales down 8% and earnings down 50% year-over-year.CarMax will use targeted price cuts to spark demand, not blanket reductions.The company is lowering margins while boosting marketing to drive traffic.SG&A will be cut by $150M annually despite increased ad spend.“Our average selling prices have drifted upward and appear to be less attractive to customers,” said Interim CEO David McCreight.Toyota just electrified one of its most important global trucks. The Hilux made its first European appearance as a full EV, signaling Toyota's pickup electrification push—just not for North American buyers.Toyota debuted the Hilux BEV at the Brussels Motor Show, and uses a 59.2 kWh battery, offering up to 160 miles WLTP range, or 236 miles in city driving.With AWD and 473 Nm of torque, it can tow 1.6 tons and haul over 1,500 lbs, keeping its work-truck credibility.Europe gets the Hilux BEV in April, but the truck isn't sold in the U.S.—and Toyota isn't signaling that will change.Alphabet-owned Wing is dramatically expanding its on-demand drone partnership with Walmart, signaling that flying groceries and meds are becoming a real part of everyday commerce.Wing will expand drone delivery to 150 more Walmart stores, building on pilots in Dallas-Fort Worth and Atlanta.Wing's top 25% of customers order three times per week, mostly groceries like eggs, ground beef, produce, and snacks.Once complete, Wing will operate from 270+ Walmart locations, reaching roughly 10% of the U.S. population.Walmart remains Wing's primary commercial partner, even as the company continues testing larger drones capable of carrying five-pound payloads.Wing's new chief business officer Heather Rivera: “Volume is definitely powering our flywheel.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

In our thirty fifth deployment of BungleTech my spheroid co-host Michael and I dive into the psyche, or perhaps psychosis, of Jamie Wolf as we take a look at his annotated version of the Art of War, we pause for a moment and discuss the variety of pronunciation mistakes we are making on a regular basis in our Rule Mistake Discovery segment, and then we wrap it all up by reading a sample chapter from the book we just discussed.Our Honourable Patreon SupportersMechWarriors: Canaan McKenna, Ed Magilton, HeyZeus, Lorian Sunrider, Malathis, MetalEd, Phil Raider Roby, Slurski LispersTechnicians: Blunderdome, Chris Cannon, DarkTremere, Dire Situation, Keflyn, Klint, Matthew Hopper, ML8211, TheRock3393, ZemerBondspersons: Arbriar, Fiddler, Fullmetal Gundam, G, Hilux, Itswhatevan, Offensive Titan, Rob Carpenter, Rob Prescott, William BeckerSegment Start TimesExtraordinary Proclamation - 1:10Podcast Primary Topic - 4:48Rule Check Discovery -49:07 Stories of the Inner Sphere - 1:11:49BungleTech LinksBungleTech Discord Homebase Under BungleTech -> https://discord.gg/ahe6QdCPfgBungleTech Email -> BungleTech@outlook.comBungleTech Global Campaign Initiative Document Repository - > ⁠https://www.patreon.com/posts/global-campaign-125155370⁠BungleTech Patreon - > ⁠ https://www.patreon.com/BungleTech⁠BungleTech Podcast Game Mode Collection - > ⁠ https://1drv.ms/f/s!AiU1hP8RhYzUn5FwSg7PaYnHbJvm7Q⁠BungleTech Twitter/X -> BungleTechTweetOther Important LinksKSAGG VI Information and Registration -> https://tabletop.events/conventions/ksagg-vi

In April of 2024, a group of aid workers were killed by Israeli Defense Forces while bringing food to Central Gaza. The IDF had alleged that its military analysts had identified a gunman on top of one of the trucks carrying supplies, suggesting it was a military vehicle, not an aid vehicle. In the online debate following the event, a familiar trope popped up: arguing over whether one of the aid trucks a Toyota Hilux. The reason? In military conflict around the globe, the Hilux is a familiar character. Whether you're a U.S. designated terrorist group, a "freedom fighter," or someone else involved in direct armed conflict, you probably know about the Hilux. Endless Thread wanted to know why, and how, this happened. So we took a journey beyond America's commercial pickup truck identity to understand why beyond our borders, the Hilux is the truck of choice.
