| The military versions of the civilian Toyota Land Cruiser, Tacoma and Hilux 4x4s have been used by military forces all over the world, in Asia, South America and the Middle East, for more than 50 years. The types of military that use these machines range from the modern and sophisticated Australian military, to the archaic and now defeated Taliban government of Afghanistan. Originally, I had thought the U.S. military did not currently use military Toyotas, but I have since been corrected. Japan donated a number of Land Cruiser 75s to the U.S. military for the 1st Gulf War effort and they were used in a variety of functions at U.S. military bases all over the world. Apparently, even a Land Cruiser 80 was used by General Norman Schwarzkopf. The Land Cruiser and Hilux is still used extensively today by American and other military forces in the Middle East. Even the American built Toyota Tacoma was used in combat by American special forces in Afghanistan. Many of these Tacomas were literally purchased off of the showroom floor in the U.S. and pressed into combat service in Afghanistan after minor modifications, still sporting their shiny factory paint jobs and aluminum wheels! Below you'll see pictures of all these mentioned military Toyotas and more. Toyota 4x4s were also commonly used as fire trucks. You'll see a common fire truck design pattern carried over 3 generations of Land Cruisers. These very specially designed Land Cruisers were originally designed as fire trucks for the crowded cities of Japan, but they have been found scattered all over the world, including in Africa on game ranges. Currently, many military and civilian police organizations all over the world use Toyota 4X4s as well. For pictures of other types of commercially and privately used Toyotas, including my own heavily modified 1989 Toyota 4x4 truck, be sure to visit my Home Page.
