    Damn, 32k??? I think I would go ahead and just get another Taco for that and find a diesel to drop down there. Don't get me wrong that looks like a nice ride, but I guess I just found my one true love.

    Yeah but don't forget the HiLux trucks have a beefed up frame, suspension and are a bit more heavy duty than the Tacomas.

    Flame suit on .:eek:

    Still I agree 32K is a lot of coin.

    Why!?!? Oh Cruel World?!

    I would love that thing, but I can drop a diesel in my tacoma for that price (and keep my baby). I emailed him anyway. I am going to cry! :pout:

    I would much rather have that motor in the Taco, I don't really like the look of the Hilux but yes I would drive one.
