Default I guess TOYOTA really does rule the middle east

Check this National Geographic photo out the second photo of the set. There are so many TOYOTA SUVs and trucks. I have never seen so many

I have never seen so many Land Cruisers, LX570, LX470, Prado, Land Cruiser Trucks.....if you look hard..there is even a Tundra.

Way to go...Lexus made the photo too!

HELL YEAH

SUVs are really popular in the middle east, it's rare to find Range Rovers, X5, X6, Cayennes..etc in the desert, because they suck at sand. You'll find them in the cities.

There are lots of Nissans too, they're pretty common like the Toyotas.

Do these guys have multiple lives to spare? I always see them do extremely dangerous stunts in their Toyotas. I guess with all that money and a wide open road in the desert, this is their only excitement.

I really don't care, they don't do that in public, so they will harm themselves only. it's not that common either.
