    Gave him a quick 1-2 honk and a thumb up. He gave a 1-2 honk back and chatted real quick in the middle of traffic on the 405S by Mar Vista area. I told him it's a nice truck. Driver said it was a 4cyl. 5spd. and runs great. It had a chrome Hilux badge on the driver's door. I'm not too familiar with those, but I think it was one, but with a modern day Hilux badge on it.

    This one had a minimalist style metal front bumper with a single hoop.
