    Random post but this is the second one I've ever seen in person. The first one I saw has El Salvador license plates on it.. I'll post it when I dig up the picture. Good looking trucks!

    There are tons of Hilux trucks here in Colombia. The one in your pic doesn't look like any I've seen down here. Painted (no chrome) rear bumper, black door handles and mirrors mean it is a base model. But it has fender flares which only come on the SRV models here. Strange. 6 lug wheels means it's a 4x4, but no 4x4 idents that I can see. Did you notice if it had a D4D diesel engine tag, or a 2.7L tag ?? Either way, they don't sell one like that here. But you're right ... they are truly good looking trucks.

    I'll be honest, didn't get that close to it. It would be sweet if it had the diesel though.

    It looks like a base model from Thailand, non-Vigo/Vigo Champ type. It could still be a D4D minus the intercooler.
