Why i bought Tacoma from USA , and not buy Hilux in Russia.
After 2years of driving father diesel TLC 76, came to the conclusion that the car needs to be changed, as it is in our family for 6 years and already tired/

**The first option was the TLC Prado 150, the minimum price for the 2.7 engine does not really relish, and the engine itself is weak, I think of a diesel version, but the price was not adequate.
**The second option Hilux in top configuration with a diesel engine, just 1.6 million(51.5k$), but after reading reviews about engines and thinking about our Local diesel quality we rejected this option.
Actually there were only Tundra, Tacoma, Ram and F150.
Ford and Dodge did not like its oak interior, they are huge, and the price was more expensive.
Tundra also disappeared, as with 4x liter engine has only two door, and needed a double cab, besides his father already have the same, and the second in the family to buy the tundra does not make sense.
And has remained one option - Tacoma.

The selection and purchase.
First decided to take a little used 2012, by looking at the auction, the price is not very pleasing, and the necessary equipment was not.
So we decided to take a new one from dealer, through the office began to look for, and after a couple of days we were offered this, in 2013, TRD Offroad.
It was decided to take.
January 13 we bought it, and 20 were sent from Seattle to Vladivostok via Busan, with an estimated arrival date February 25.
Began agonizing months of waiting, but at this time we decided to buy the desired tuning.
Was purchased: power bumper and side steps the company IronCross, Toytec lift kit with Billstein 5100, cover Bakflip, visor, mats and heated seats.
Came on February 25, but the container with the car and stood in Busan, in the end the car came only on March 8.
Paid a fee 405k rub (13k$) finally picked up the car.
Went through the public services for accommodation and 2 days got them without any queues.
The final price was ~1620000rub (53k$)

Special mark.
in russia very hight duty taxes, so all cars very expensive, we have 3 greades: for sedan suv etc
new 0-3 years (fee 48% of price or 5 euro per cm3, depens whats more)
used 3-5 years (2-3 euro per cm3)
used 5-7years (5-7euro per cm3)
For trucks and pickup another fee, and its ~15% less than usual cars/
but for russsian custom DCab Tacoma not a pick up
so we pay a bribe ~3k$ for converting tacoma to pickup fee (its crazy, but no way, if you dont want pay high duty fee)
