    Only if you've had two Hilux's, 3 Tacomas, 3 4Runners, a FJC, a tundra and a Prius prior to the sienna. With the exception of the tundra and Prius being heavily modded. Then we'll talk.

    Anything up to 1994 is considered a Hilux. Had a 77 and an 85. 85 was a molested beast I couldn't hang on to. Buick 3.something that leaked fluid like nobodies business and ran like shit. Wish it had been a 22RE that was mostly stock but meh, I was young and made mistakes.

    To my knowledge they were refered to as a Hilux up until the introduction of the Tacoma mid 1994. May not have had the actual namesake in North America but I think they were considered Hilux's.

    They were called pickups here but they shared a frame with the hilux iirc.

    Tacomas are an entirely different vehicle down to the bones.

    The Hilux shared the same frame, engine and design as what was refered to as the pickup up until the Tacoma. Tomato, tomatoe.

    No, spent it's time in the driveway with cardboard under it until I sold it. Had to replace the trans cooler lines, oil pan gasket and valve cover gaskets before I sold it. Bought it as a beater trail rig and quickly realized the error I had made.
