technical

1) Something that is exact or close to perfect, usally spoken by a person of relativly high IQ

2) A modified pick-up truck or SUV, usally a toyota. These are used by terrorist organizations for pretty much everything. Seen very often in Africa and South America. Usally seen with a .50-caliber machine gun or Rocket-Propelled-Gernade (RPG} mounted on the bed. Useful for drive-bys until the US Army pulls up with thier Humvees. Also they include a CB radio system installed. Only Western military forces use VHF radio systems. Technicals are usally poorly driven and have a few rebel/terrorist fighters in the back firing/attempting to fire the machine gun mounted in the back. Also holding AK-47s.
