While a Toyota Hilux does provide mobility for Westafrikan troops, they provide little to no protection whatsoever. Given the large, relatively flat combat terrain, even infantry can render the vehicles out of operation with small arms due to the lack of armor. Civilian vehicles are designed to protect the driver in the event of a crash with intentionally weak plating to absorb the energy of a collision rather than having the shock go through the driver. This means, the only parts that could stop, deflect, or change the trajectory of a bullet would be the frame and engine block. Even in numbers the operators would be downed before ATGMs could make it to their targets or the vehicles could overrun an infantry position. Sharpshooters could also easily incapacitate drivers or gunners due to the relatively poor traction of sand only allowing for rather predictable trajectories, the Toyota Hilux also has a large turn radius even on roads, so they're a prime target for sharpshooters. Even worse, the Toyota Hilux uses an unstable ladder frame which largely prevents smooth riding, which would impede using them as a weapons platform accurately. Disabled Toyotas would be reintegrated into the Egyptian army as supply vehicles, thanks for the free trucks! Hiluxes have SO much potential as a combat vehicle if used right... In the North, 60,000 fresh Egyptian troops and their allotted vehicles are on their ways to the frontline, shattering through the border into enemy territory. In the South, Atlantican supplies fuel Egyptian troops and relieve stress on out supply lines, with whatever is left of the "Great Toyota Charge" likely reeling back from casualties, small detachments of cheap, expendable combat buggies would be deployed to hunt them down. Yes, buggies have the same issues but considering that most of the Toyotas were mounted with ATGMs and artillery pieces they'll still likely be outgunned by the buggies. With the failed counter encirclements, our own encirclements would close down on Westafrikan forces in the south. The armies deep into enemy territory in the South would halt to allow the forces farther behind to catch up.
