That's what I was thinking too.


I can't imagine taking my stock syncro on this sort of terrain. For one, not sure if it has enough poop although in granny it might trudge through. Wonder if this guy had a tiico or something else?

The other problem with mine is I'd be dodging so much crap as it flew through the cab.... "look out... here comes a hiking boot.... duck, it's a book.... watch it... that bottle of dishwashing detergent could take out an eye!"
I'd hate the clean up the mess afterwards, too. Embarassed

The Doka in the video appears to have a gas filler up fron like a 2wd and in the back like a Syncro. Is that standard for Dokas?

Yeah, I kept waiting for Mike Myers to pop-up and say, "Now is the time on Sprockets when we dance..." Dancing
