How to get 2.4L Diesel Tacoma/Hilux here in the US?

Hmm well I can't really help there since I've never camped up there before. Usually work 6-7 days a week so it doesn't leave much time for fun. And vacation time is used to catch up on personal work

 

You adult like a boss.

 

15 years here

 

If you're looking for good food in Knoxville, and like asian/Japanese food, my brother and sister in law have a restaurant there named Kaizen. Really good food. He also used to be the chef at a french place in k-ville that was also amazing, Northshore Brasserie.

 

Still cost you 30% more.

 

I'm tired of adulting ... I want plenty of money and free time. Money for taco mods and free time for going/doing cool places and things.

Sorry OP didn't mean to thread jack

 

Super jealous...

 

Got any more details? Do they have a website to drool over these bad boys or does the broker just contact you when they become available? This thread got me interested and I already started looking at what is out there. I HATE OUR IMPORT LAWS!

99% sure he used these guys. They have some pretty cool stuff going on

 

ya he did it's still on their website. He also got that truck with only 55k miles on it...

 

Damn, not sure what Fuego actually paid, but I paid slightly less than that for a first gen with more miles. If I would have known that this was an option at the time, I probably would've gone that route. That thing is sexy Fuego!

 

The problem is those diesels aren't spec'd for the US. Anyone who owns a modern diesel can tell you how unbelievably annoying an unreliable they are thanks to the EPA. DEF and DPF are problems just waiting to happen.

 

but we can still have it and you cant

 

OH YEAH

WELL, I DONT WANT IT.

SO NYAHHHH.

 

Will trade for poutine and health bennies.

 

on the topic north american diesel does not work for them.
Not sure whats different with them but just doesn't work. My mechanic was working on an older land cruiser diesel imported from australia and it needed a complete fuel system overhaul just to run on our diesel here.

 

would you want this though?

we can have them now

 

No.

Probably couldn't fit in it.

I can only DD a truck or SUV. My toys are limited to old iron.. my project car is almost going to turn 70 in 2019.

 

I just want a 2013 Alpha-12 GTR...you can have them now too but can't afford it.

 

That's why I run the Lucas Oil fuel treatments every few tanks to prevent any issues like that.
