Ian is correct.
It staggers me how many people clearly do not know how to drive their vehicles correctly.

No... That's not a limitation of compression, from what I could tell on that vid, that's actually a limitation of grip!!
What I think is happening there is when the axle is on full articulation, one of the wheels is starting to rotate backwards (thanks to the open diff) and it is effectively sliding. The other evidence to back that up is the dust it kicks up in front of the wheels... If it was picking up speed, without sliding, that wouldn't happen.
As the Toyota has its diffs locked, it isn't getting that.

Nah...
Like I said, anti-stall is just a marketing term given to the feedback loop on an EFi system. Therefore 'anti-stall' is available in ALL gears...
...it's just that the TDCi works to different parameters.
However, whether the gear/terrain you're on lets you exploit that 'feature' is another matter! ;)
