The Dakar 2013 Rally is currently taking place in Peru, Argentina and Chile in South America. Last year’s third place podium winner Giniel De Villiers is once again in the Dakar 2013 rally and one of the favorite riders to win the Dakar 2013 Rally.
Yesterday January 7, 2013 Giniel De Villiers lost his second place in the Dakar Rally and ended up finishing 7th for the day. His team mates Duncan Vos and Rob Howie rolled their Toyota Hilux pick-up and had to retire from the race. Day 3 at the Dakar 2013 Rally were not the best day for the Toyota Dakar Rally Team.
The Dakar Rally is one of the most demanding endurance races in the world, and it is both a physical and mental race, and a Day like Day 3 for the Toyota Team could easily affected Giniel De Villiers negatively and made the Rally even harder than what it is!
Yesterday, Day 4 of the Dakar Rally have proven why Giniel de Villiers is one of the Top Rally Drivers in the world, and he and Dirk von Zitzewitz have bounced back and have completed the Dakar 2013 Rally Day 4 in Third place. His current placing in the Dakar have our Car Site team very excited as from his current position in the Dakar race he could easily win the 2013 Dakar Race if he can stay focus and Dirk von Zitzewitz can Navigate without any further errors.
Today the Dakar Rally route is taking the riders over the Andes Mountains and the Navigators will play a very important role in this part of the Dakar Rally.

In South Africa the pick-up that Giniel De Villiers drive is considered as one of the best “Pick-up’s” ever built. Although the Toyota Hilux Pick-up is not the same as what you can buy at Toyota Dealers, it is still considered as one of the toughest pick-up’s in South Africa.
We have talked to a few people to find out what they think of the Toyota Hilux pick-up and everyone we interviewed agreed that if there is one pick-up that can win the Dakar 2013 Rally that it is the Toyota Hilux!
