Damn, check out the bull bar on that truck:
That would seriously fuck someone up, hence them becoming illegal in most of the West. Not to mention the light rack, that would blind an oncoming moto.
That's a pretty flash ride for the manager of a restaurant.
Illegal in the west? How then does one traverse the deserts of Australia, if it wasn't for such a bullbar? They are needed to protect your car from hitting kangaroos (and in Cambodia they certainly protect against dogs with death wishes). When I was living in Australia I had such a bullbar on my ute or as Americans call them "trucks" and no one uttered a word about it being illegal (because it isn't - though I can't speak for France or Germany for example). ARB, an Australian company manufactures 4wd equipment like this, at it's Rayong factory in Thailand.
However, few vehicles like this one seen driving along the highways of Cambodia ever venture off-road. I doubt this Brazilian guy would even be capable of changing a tyre by himself, let alone getting stuck in mud. His rig is simply for show. Therefore you are right, his ride is quite flash for a restaurant manager who probably rarely even leaves the comforts of Phnom Penh.
