revvo Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 That was truly one of the best Top Gear specials, check it out if you haven't yet! It's entertaining like Top Gear always is but also amazing at how the truck just keeps on working, and how May hates winter :rofl: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/641177-legendary-toyota-hilux-on-arctic-challenge-to-north-pole/#findComment-589454926 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannes Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Geez, I wonder what the PSI is!?Is snow just like sand? I thought snow was harder? Depends, snow has a lot of forms. ;) Didn't see that TopGear special yet so I may just get Transmission to work.

.Kompressor Posted June 4, 2008 Author Share Posted June 4, 2008 If you look through the website for the challenge they have great pics. And at certain points of the crossing they had to lower the Tyre pressure to 4 lbs psi. lol so they don't sink in the soft snow.
