Mercedes GL 6x6 EDITED!
I know this is a Hilux forum, but I'm sure most of the off-road enthusiasts will drool over this one!

Someone had caught a snapshot of it racing past in Namibia.
Edit: At first I was proud to recognize my country as the place where it all took place, but I had only briefly watched it (on my phone; btw: thanks for fixing the link) and gotten so excited about the car and the fact that it was my country; I prematurely posted this video with pride. I would like to correct myself and mention that I am in no way proud of the idiotic and destructive driving displayed in the above video.

Re: Mercedes GL 6x6
Inderdaad 'n indrukwekkende stukkie Duitse vernuf.
Maar....ek is nou eers naar. Daardie skade aan die woestyn is om van siek te word. Niemand van ons ry so in ons kosbare stukkie aarde nie. Windgatte hoort nie daar nie.
En....Ek het Vogelfederberg net so maklik met my 1973 Landrover Series III Stasiewa uitgery.
Gelukkig... Het ek nou 'n Hilux

Re: Mercedes GL 6x6
Baie nice wa daai. Ek dink egter nie dit is n goeie advertensie vir ons as 4x4 gemeenskap nie want dit gee die wetmakers skietgoed om ons weg te hou van ons gunsteling plekke wat ons verantwoordelik besoek....

Re: Mercedes GL 6x6 EDITED!
One more thing: unfortunately, especially due to videos as the one above; a lot of people dislike and downright despise 4x4 (or 6x6, or how ever many wheels) drivers. We are not all alike and I am sure that every member of this forum sticks to the rules and the road. It is our responsibility to educate others of their wrong doing in this regard.
Something to think about: although the odd lunatic can do a lot of unrepairable damage, there is a much, much more threatening and destructive element which we all support in one way or another: MINING. Just driving past the numerous sign boards of mines along the gravel roads between the coast and Windhoek makes me more than furious and sad at the same time No vehicles are allowed to drive in there, but they are allowed to dig up huge areas of land, causing a destruction that no 4x4 is remotely capable off.

Re: Mercedes GL 6x6 EDITED!
Blom, dit is nie hoe hulle ry nie. Dit is waar hulle ry.
Daai Hooligan maak doughnuts in die veld en maak sy eie nuwe spore wat gladnie nodig is nie. Op Giniel se video hou hy darem in die spore.
Die Duitsers dink seker Nam is steeds hulle kolonie.
Dit is 'n indrukwekkende stuk toerusting wat hulle gebou het.
