Toyota Hilux with trailer descends near-vertical muddy wall

In Australia, a Toyota Hilux driver took the vehicle's off-road capabilities to the extreme by driving a loaded pickup with a trailer down a muddy, near-vertical wall. The video, published on the Ghost X Overland account on Instagram and YouTube, shows a 2024 Toyota Hilux navigating the Gunshot Creek obstacle on the Old Telegraph Track in Cape York, Queensland. The truck features modifications such as a steel bumper, snorkel, lifted suspension, and larger tires, but retains its standard 2.8-liter turbodiesel engine. The trailer, designed for sleeping, followed the vehicle's line without tipping over.
