That's because it takes significantly more effort to break the wheel's axle than with most German or French cars (never mind GM cars).
And of course, they're cheaper too.
- 616c 12y agoTell me about it. But the preference for Toyota is confusing. The weight differential makes the car front heavy. So often less experienced people plant LCs face first off a dune if not landing properly. Nissan Patrols, however, are very evenly weighted. I hear they landed very consistently all the time, at least more than the LC. So I have never really gotten it. I guess it just boils down to preference.
