The Machine

When you're on a mission to save the world, you can't afford to take chances with your choice of transportation. With almost 10,000 miles on some of the roughest roads on the planet, and many off road, unsurpassed toughness is paramount. When driving through some of the most inhospitable environments ever braved by man, where one breakdown could mean death, flawless reliability is essential. When time is of the essence, and rapid and efficient travel is a priority, power and effortless overtaking ability are valuable attributes.

With those qualities in mind, there is only one vehicle available that is truely up to the task. One vehicle that, with Peter and Michael's expertise and one hell of a lot of luck, just might make it to Mongolia in time to rescue the economy. That vehicle is the Toyota Landcruiser Troopcarrier.

Unfortunately, both Michael and Peter had invested heavily with Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC. Having lost almost their entire life's savings, and with little chance to recover financially while working full time investigating the economy's disappearance, Peter and Michael were forced to settle on a slightly less capable, and significantly more affordable, vehicle.
