Would love to see a more conservative build for the regular guy. Bullbar, raised air intake, 2” lift and some 33” a/t tires. Nothing crazy like a big ass canopy from patriot campers or a complete slide up kitchen with running water.
Keep it simple like most people do instead off making it a rolling showroom of expensive stuff.
Pretty much the same mate, Keep it basic please Ronny.
Widebody stance it
Couldn’t agree more with you Michael! 👍
Every channel or TV show has done the "ultimate" set up a million times over on ever vehicle they have. I think we're bored of it. Those that have $30k+ to throw at a brand new vehicle just off the showroom floor have been endlessly catered for. I think we all want the bits n pieces and old gear reviews on individual items and ideas. Well over these pre fab'd, plug n play over priced Swiss army knives. We aren't all rich tradies.
Can spend all the money in the world but the beer you drink at camp doesn't taste any better or worse.
Hi Ronny. Could you do a few offroad tracks with your new hilux standard and then again when modified to see what difference the mods make. Great show mate. Keep it up. Cheers
This was my first thought too.
Totally agree 👍🏻
A track or two on stock rims would be cool .
Yep! I suspect this can do quite a bit stock without all the mods. Show us!!
Absolutely agree with this. I would love to see how far it can go stock before getting bogged and then after mods.
Keep it stock and send it everywhere. See how far you get on the trails
It wasn’t stock for long!
Neoprene seat covers / 3D floor mats /Provent 200 catch can / fuel manager secondary filter / weather shields / snorkel / bullbar / rear bar / Toyo R/Ts / outback armour lift kit 2inch
Just drive the fucking thing
Ronny, I like your new choice. In Europe we dont get your V8 ute so this new one is more “international” and I cant wait to see modifications that are coming. Keep it up! 💪💪💪
and we actually get this new 2.8, so it must be a different engine than the previous 2.8
@@dubious6718 I think it's the same engine but with some re-designed internals. Here's a statement I read on the Toyota website "Under the hood, the turbo-diesel’s power has been increased to 150kW while peak torque on diesel automatic models has been ramped up by 11% to 500Nm. The power increase was achieved through modifications to the cylinder block, pistons, turbo design and cooling system."
@@olivermaskell6244 Reading between the lines, it sounds like they have increased fuel and cylinder pressures to give the engine better emissions and allow it to pass EU law.
@@olivermaskell6244 The reason we didn't get the previous 2.8 was cause it had to much "exhaust", it wasn't clean enough, so this must be a Euro 6 engine
Hey Ronny. Good choice. Iike alot of other comments, I would like to see this build kept to a realistic budget. Some many people who have a channel like your self do builds that are very cool but not what the average guy can try to do with there own vehicle. It would be great to see a "real" build and just see how capable a 4x4 can be with only the must have upgrades. Looking forward to watching this one!
Very true!
I agree! Waiting for a realistic budget modifications... nothing else!
Nothing like the smell of a new truck in the morning!!
Amen to that
Very nice Ronnie. Yours is one of the best 4wd channels on UA-cam. Thank you.
I love the plan for reasonable mods and reality for most of us that 4wd.
Yes Mate, it would be nice to see a more “budget build” effort to show that you don’t need the Andrew White excesses, and you’ll actually leave the tracks and do some proper exploring too!
I upgraded to the 2019 Hilux Invincible X (UK Model), previously had a 2001 MK4 Hilux that I used daily and took up to 418,000kms. The reason I had to change was emissions, my work sometimes takes me to the big cities, and London was £100 (AUS$182) per day to enter in my old one! Manchester starts charging in the next couple of years too. Although a totally different beast in comparison, when the going gets tough it still has the confidence inspiring feel of my old Hilux, my main test so far has been a day in the ice and snow a week after getting it! My first mod were some Aussie Black Duck Canvas Seat covers - which my sister kindly shipped out of WA just before Covid Restrictions hit the UK.
Got a 2019 Hilux work ute biggest pile of shit, endless problems with the DPF emissions. spends more time in the repair workshop than out, hasn't even done 75 thousand k,s yet.
@@ecovention Different Engine 2-KD 2.4L in UK we have AdBlue (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) on ours as well, the trucks are built in South Africa and not Thailand. Under warranty for 5 years (160,000kms) so hopefully I'll be OK. Did like the simplicity of my old Hilux, used to service it myself.
Congrats Ronny - never seen someone so genuinely excited about getting into a Hilux.
Enjoy the new car smell, real men's perfume.
The rubber mats keep it smelling that way for at least 6 months too lol
I was just as excited about getting my new HiLux, it's a bit like that when you've been ogling after one since you were 8, lol!!!
Honestly instead of upgrading it straight away, take your own advice and keep it stock for a while till you find out what you actually need to make it a more capable 4wd. Nice choice btw, my uncle got a 2020 hilux and he loves it to bits
Haha good point.
I think that's more directed at total newbies though while they figure out what they actually need. I think Ronnie knows what he's going to need because he already knows what he's going to be doing.
You only really need off-road tires, and that is what hes doing
Bed liner is good for everything and roof rack is just convenient
Thats what he said he was going to do.
@@Gladius7 well i guess 30% are not listening :(
That’s exactly what he said he’s doing😂
Fantastic man, that’s a cracking looking truck.
I’m simply looking forward to watching a build from start to finish. However seeing what a stock truck can/will do will be awesome as well 🤘
Catch can, fuel pre-filter, 3 inch exhaust, front mount intercooler Snorkel, GVM upgrade, remove Tub, Tray and slide on camper, Brakes, bull bar, lights and on and on Enjoy Ronny.
I just bought a N80 SR5 Hilux on Wednesday and compared to the colorado i had before it just feels more solid and well rounded, the leather interior is beautiful, the 4wd only takes 1 second to engage I'm absoultley stoked!
I'm a Nissan Patrol man but own a corolla for driving to work and the wife owns a camry and honeslty Toyota's are very solid well built reliable cars!
That's an excellent choice I've had three hiluxs now iv'e a 2014 sr5 dual cab tows my 6mtr boat goes of road like a dream comfortable can't fault it. Great work Ronny keep it up
I'd love to see an aussie build like using local aussie companies for things. Things like a bullbar, scrub bars and sliders all locally built not the usual catalogue build where people go to arb or tjm and just throw everything on the catalogue at it
That’s why I trust you bro and thousands of people around the world because you honestly in your videos no bs god bless you and the channel ronhy cheers from tampa usa
Congrats on the truck. I love the idea of the "average joe" build. I'm very interested in the suspension with the ifs and the capability of the truck after you upgrade it. Very jealous all of the other countries that get diesel options for the same cars in the states. Excited to watch the progress.
you'll never see that bloke at toyota in the bush 🤣🤣
You will, but he will be dogging!
Maybe it's the name of a local gentleman's club.
Yeah cos a bloke can’t wear an ironed shirt work in an office and go near the bush 🙄
Alexander Watson I thought it was true more because I have never met a car salesman who ever had enough time off to get to the bush, let alone justify owning a modded rig.
But if you come home early from the bush you mite find him cutting your grass
I'm a Dmax man but fully understand where your coming from with sticking to the brand you like and trust the most, but I will say the Hilux is my close second choice. Well done mate.
for what you pay for them... not value for money compared to other models
Be interesting to see how the new Dmax goes, they've brought it up to at least pretty close to the rest, ahead in some things, and just a bit behind still in some, but overall, it'd be close to the Hilux in the new models. Less dealership access in the bush maybe?
The resale value really mean a lot for some of us here, at my place i will need to spend 8 to 10k for 2.8L hilux 2002.. But for dmax, the price for 2010 model are around 10k Australia dollars..
Price is why I drive a dmax
No point trusting a brand thats says “ the dust in your engine is with in spec”. Lol
As a 2007 Hilux owner ,loved all the videos you ever made now you just pushed the bar higher, can't wait to see the progress!
Congratulations Ronny im from Egypt and this vehicule is a star here
Im so happy for you and excited to see you will upgrade it
Stay safe, and enjoy it to the max

Hey Ronny, I just bought a 4Runner sr5 same color, I feel like it’s one big happy family 😁
"Feel like I'm cheating on my 70, hope she doesn't find out" haha gold!
Picking up an Fj in Texas and stumbled on to your old video interviewing somebody with an Fj. I’ve been enjoying your content, it’s entertaining, straight forward and informative. I’m looking forward to catching up on your journey with your new truck! Keep it up duder!
"Oh what a feeling!" Toyota. Haven't seen that for years! @0:09
Congrats!
Wish they sell Hilux in the States.
But you guys get the Tacoma!
You should run the stock lux and your built 79 up the same tracks and see how capable it really is compared to the 79.
And then load up the Hilux to the same spec & weights & then see how it is in 8 years...
@@user-rv6zk1pp7r LOL, I agree Tim, I don't think the LUX can fair against the 79. The Lux might be good in the now but 79's are built so tough.
I'm fairly sure hes gonna drive the Hilux together with Torben in his 79
Did you hear what he said , not going to make the same mistakes meaning he over loaded the 79 !
The hilux just as capable. Only difference is weight and the front locker in 79 would help alot more in certain situations
Hey Ronny,
I’d love to see basic set ups for weekend camping / small trip’s and necessary mods like you said that can be justified not just because you can.
It is amazing how far you can take a New vehicle with nothing more than a set of new tires. Stock and honest, that will be a refreshing change. Great to see one of the big channels catering to the majority of the audience.
Hope it pays off with subs and views.
Hi Ronny, just mount better tires and do a trip.
Pretty much that is what he is going to do for the first 3 months
Definitely agree with this
Totally agree. 100%
Totally agree
Yep, just change the tyres and go. Maybe just up the profile for a bit more rubber.
I have 16" wheels on my FJ Cruiser. Harder to find but they are out there!! Love the truck!!!!
Its a UTE mate not a truck
@@djjames6576
Because were aussies and its called a ute not a truck .
You wouldn't call a tinny a ship would you ?
Unlucky mate I'd rather a push bike than be seen in an FJ HAHAHA
You’re 100% right. Many other reviewers continually bash the Hilux whilst having nothing bad to say about competitors. Like those other reviewers purposely bash the Hilux to steer people into buying other brands.
Loved this video and your series. 👍🏼
‘This vehicle is to appeal to the majority of the audience’
Me remembering seeing the Top Gear Hilux video when I was young
Warm fuzzy feelings
The front of this really reminds me of the Ranger 🙃
Anyway, congrats on the new ride, I can tell you're excited about it.
I'm looking forward to seeing the mods you put on this one 🙂
Wheels as well
I was thinking it looks like a mix between a ford ranger, toyota tacoma, and honda ridgeline.
"BALLOON PAYMENT" for the number plate would help contribute to audience appeal 😆. Car looks mad though.
Hi Ronny,
Congratulations !! Its marvelous.
We have a persian proverb in Iran, says :
“I hope the wheels run a long time for you.”
Waiting to see more from your new offroader.
Amir
Ronny, your the best and watching you over the the years, The Honest and I love the way you do your Vids, With the trips and Cook Outs, Setting up camp, So it gives us Normal Blokes Ideals and Aspirations,.
I am in England and have a Disco 3, Yeah I Know, haha but you give me and Others so many Ideals to live our lives.
You help us from light camping to touring the world.
Keep it up Ron.
I really like the idea of this being a ‘regular Joe’ vehicle with gradual buy once, cry once modifications.
I wouldn't call a brand new $60k plus vehicle a 'regular Joe' vehicle.
Toyota needs to develop a v6 diesel for a higher performance option to Hiluxes and Forutners, or entry-level Land Cruisers as the petrol v6 is offered.
That will not happen with Toyota, they will only make cars they think you would want, not a car you really want, the Hilux to me is the most over rated 4WD on the market.
The 4 cylinder is already making more power than the TTV8. Why is a V6 needed?
@@Renegade040 definately, mass bought to be a work vehicle, only reason sales are so high, bet you less then 1/10 hiluxs get bought to be used for decent offroading.
George Simmons why is it most over rated 4wd?

Welcome back to the hilux club Ronnie. Awesome to see
as someone who bought a new hilux in 2017 and added modifications before I even picked it up.... after 3 years.... do not get a hard lid it massively restricts what you can put into the back tub AND it's a royal pain having to climb in when stuff slides all the way to the back (my boss made that mistake and ended up getting rid of the hard lid and now has an ARB canopy), I still have the tonneau cover but want to change the tub for a custom aluminium tray & removable 1/2 canopy. Toyota plastic tub liner is ok, not great but it's ok for protecting the tub inside, there are better tub liners out there.
a MUST get for the hilux... tub tie down points, bonnet gas struts and tail gate gas struts... with an extremely heavy bonnet & tail gate... these should come standard on the SR5 but don't.
Out of curiosity... does your hilux come with AC vents in the rear of the center console? and do the rear seats lift up with extra storage underneath?
No words to describe this beast,completely perfect
Please obey all traffic regulations.
That's something I will have to change.
Lol!! That cracked me up, a lot.... I still prefer the old facelift... This new Hilux looks more like a Ranger.
You can fit 16” dynamic steely rims on them with a certain offset
I had Mickey Thompson Sidebiters in 16s on our SR5
Probably void any insurance
Nice Rig
Congratulations mate.
Can't wait to see you tear her apart and rebuild her custom to the way you want her.
But don't stop giving the 79 some love. Hope we see her too.
Bullbar bullbar bullbar.
That is your must do #1 mod.
Greetings from SanDiego everyone in SoCal is running their tacomas (states) or hilux (australia) with a 3" lift with fox, Icon, or king suspension with total chaos or a reputable upper control arm. 285-70-17 size tires to start and a snorkel. Cheers love your vids!! Congratulations!!
Keep it simple Ronny. This is a layman's car, so do layman's modifications.
Congratulations my man. I want to get one of these in the Philippines so I'm looking forward to the review.
I bought a used but pretty new Toyota Tacoma on a Thursday and on Saturday I almost got stuck in some mud. I sunk it to the Frame rails so I put it in second law in Florida and it got me out. I love what you do to me Toyota
Super Ronny liked ur video and simplicity u show in every video !! Keep the guud wrk onn
I was thinking a kangaroo with a saddle, clearly I was wrong.

Congrats on the new ride. I have a 2020 Hilux and am still debating what to upgrade first for off road purposes. I will definitely love seeing which route you take on your upgrades. But I would like to see how capable off road this Hilux is before any damage can be done.
Tires
Firstly, this is a fantastic step to improving and adding to the channel and your business, well done. I have learnt so much real, unbiased advice from this channel and there is so much helpful content coming from this next journey. My only question is will you be featuring your 70 series on trips anymore?
Congratulations. May this addition to your family finds you new adventures and lots of happiness.
Hey, first of all congrats on a new truck. As for the content - this is the perfect chance to make a comparison video of stock vs modified, but with a difference. Why not find a reasonably difficult track, that would be almost on the limits of what a stock Hilux can manage, to use it (track) as a "controlled" one - drive the car stock. And then repeat the drive after each new modification just to see what mod actually makes what difference to performance?..
That’s a cool idea only thing that worries me are the pristine panels 😆
Great choice. I recently bought the 2019 version and love it. Put on an Aeroklas canopy and tub liner, then took it on the beach in the stock tyres (deflated of course) and it didn't miss a beat, even in the soft stuff. Glad they put in Apple car play/Android Auto in the 2020, but it's not wireless unlike the competitors. The power in the 2019 whilst not quite as much as your 2020 is still pretty sweet, especially compared to my 20 year old Prado which it replaced. Enjoy. Looking forward to the mods update as I too am looking at how to improve what I currently have without breaking the bank account needlessly for general touring and some moderate off-road.
Jesus my friend, I am sitting here, sipping beer on the other side of the world, in a cold Poland (Europe), half of the clip and I know that I am buying this car 100% (i was thinking to do so, to make it over for expeditions with my family) but I already know I must have it, thanks! Great channel
Upgrade list:
17 inch rims
30-33.5 inch all terrain tires
Fender flares
Electronic running boards/rock sliders
Bed liner
3inch lift
Snorkel
Bumbers (front and back)
Paint protection or wrap
Exhaust tip
Bed cover
Rain visors
Air intake upgrade
Oil catch can upgrade
Tinted windows
I honestly thought you'd get something different and interesting. Like you say Ronnie, all those other Utes are good vehicles, you could have broken the mold with this one. I guess I'm not surprised.
Yep he summed it up went with the numbers... like a heard of sheep to follow,
Just another duel cab
What else is there mate a iveco who can afford that
Lots others, he named some of them.
Stuart Karlson all I was reiterating is he went for the highest selling Ute on the market, with that comes the biggest possible following of new subscribers. Good on him smart
I'm guessing "fenrir" for the custom plate
But Fenrir ends up killing the one who rides Sleipnir. For your own safety maybe you shouldn't.
I thought Fenrir as well but it's already taken by a commodore
ZuluComander what is sliepnir?
@@alexsallery its Odins eight legged horse...
Alex Sallery the 8 legged horse that Odin rides.
I like how the trucks tailgates hinges are flatbar steel. All the trucks here in north America stop using hinges like that in the 90s and use thin cables that snap and break easily. I wish hiluxs were available here
I'm happy too the fact you have managed to have this beautiful baby beast ❤
“Please obey all traffic regulations”
You lost me at “gets up and moves” and “luxurious”. 🤪🤦🏻♂️
Looking forward to the build and the adventures it brings, congrats.
Is it that slow? Lol
You just went up a notch in my book mate. Look forward to the journey.
I run 265 60 R18 Hankook Dyna pros. Plenty of meat on the sidewall and ride nice around the 15psi mark on sand, 20psi around the tracks. Low noise, good grip and affordable.
Your reaction to "Please obey all traffic regulations" had me laughing 😁
Nothing more satisfying than watching a stock forby mud crawl and rock climb.
Hey Ronny, amazing video! Glad you like the new Hilux. From all the hard work and amount of content you've put out over the years, it's great to see that you have rewarded yourself with a smart investment that will benefit you and your channel for years to come. Hope you enjoy it and teach us all new things about IFS vehicles!
Hey Ronny, congrats man and welcome back to the fold. I recently bought my "new" - 2017 - Hilux and am stoked to see it is going to be a test and build process with you. I was lucky and had an owner that really looked after it and set it up well. Canopy on the back, GVM upgrade, front bar, lights etc etc. BUT there is more to be done over time as there always is with vehicles we love and want to do more with.
I am very psyched to see what you do with this test and build series too. I was really disappointed to learn that another channel I love watching 4WD trips, tips and advice from was basically just pushing the cheapest crap on the market because they are sponsored to do so. You have NO IDEA how glad I was to hear your comments about it being YOUR vehicle and showing us everything good and bad. I still like the other channel, which I won't name because the influencers on it are still good peeps at heart (at least that's what I choose to believe).
So bring it on mate and let's see what works and what doesn't.
I just want to see you get out there and show us step by step on what you find you need to upgrade. I would love to see it stay stock and drive rings around heavly moded rigs!
It won't be running rings around much at all with approach, ramp over and departure angles of a toyota camry.
I bought my 2019 Hilux for the same reason, trust in the brand.
Steven Douglas his was a gift
Same.
Says nobody with a late model hilux and a failed dpf
Ben Spyker nah he paid for it himself
@@dinosshed I know what you mean but 5 year or 100k warenty on my one. Then chop it in for a new one.
Man, congratulations for your new Toyota Hilux. I have an Toyota Hilux Cargo 2014 and I am very satisfied
Just getting into my Hulu’s set up and can’t wait to see where u go with this going the same way do it right the first time and needs to be spot on first time . This is actually great to see hope u keep the tub because I’m sick of seeing norweld and alike canopies stuck on extension chassis to drive down a few dirt roads . Ronny is bringing back the next thing we all want to see
2 inch lift, 16” steel rims and all terrain tires
And only 32's
*See the capabilities of the Hilux stock and slowly add upgrades and compare the differences*
One thing to note with the trc, if you just hit the button it switches off till you hit 50kph and then auto turns back on, need to be in park, press and hold button till the trc off light turns on inside your tacho then it's permanently off, bit frustrating till you learn the hard way on the beach
Pick a sand hill (Wylbunga?), a rutted track (Powerline?), a gravel road (any) and a trip down south on the Highway. Record and log them for noise fuel consumption etc. Then tyres to reasonable size AT, do each test again. Then weekend camping fit out test again. I am interested in that point where you go from a comfortable economical all rounder to a 4WD thirsty noisey tourer.
Congrats mate. This is the most sold 4x4 in Pakistan too. Love for lux is impeccable.
I would love to see stock Lux against Jimny. Since i own an older version if it SJ410. And im making a budget 4x4 since covid left me unemployed.
Damn you go jacked they sold you a car with the steering wheel on the wrong side. Take that quality control gone bad back.
karma koma you obviously mean the correct side of the car like the rest of the world😂
@@Zuludarkthirty lol
Actually it is on the RIGHT side of the car
😂😂
B K except where they are made.
I know someone that bought one of these and he has had nothing but trouble with it. Also my mechanic said to stay away from them. But my mechanic also said the older 3lt diesel hiluxs are bullet proof.
You should find a 4x4 track close to home the has a bit of everything that you can use as a benchmark. Every time you do a mod you should take it back to the track and show how it was better or worse. It's should be a pretty tough track that has sections that should stop most standard 4x4s. Let's see the limits of what this car can do grow.
Congrats mate! However that "please obey all traffic laws" is horrendous, i bet turning it off voids warranty too. God i hate new cars with all their crap.
I had to rip out all the beeping shit in my SV6, it's more distracting than helpful!
You can turn it off in the menu. All new Toyota’s have that annoying “feature”
@@henrya1051 That's good to hear. Still shouldn't even exist in the first place, same with my cars beeping crap.
Congrats with the new car Ronny. To be honest, i would like to see something more related to the reality, not like when you have a never ending gold mine and you can buy everything. So you've bought the new vehicle, great! Now justify every purchase. Not from the prospective "because I can", but rather "why do I need to spend money on it?". For example, you don't like the stock wheels and tyres. Ok, show us these places where they fail and then replace them. Show that you really needed to go over something rugged because you needed, not because you wanted to go over ruts having a normal route just next to it. I have my 2010 hilux on highway tyres. I went everywhere, on beaches, on rocks, sand, mud and i never got bogged on this car. But i simply won't go to a deep shithole just because i want to test my car. No. There has to be a reason why I need to go there.
Some people don't take the chicken track every chance they get. Time to toughen up mate. If you havnt got bogged in your 4x4 then you havnt gone hard enough.
Everything I though of suggesting...you covered 😏
Before modifying, show how easy/hard it is to do things that are temporary, like thumper pack instead of full dual battery system; jerry cans in place of long range tank & water tanks; portable UHF instead of installed. Then when modifying, try something that is different (brand, style, solution) to what you have done to Sleipnir.
I agree.
I agree with Jerry cans and keeping weight low, but jump packs and thumper portables are dubious for 12v fridge and camping lights set up given they are a pain to secure properly for heavy offroading and there can be charging issues. Doable but just not the best option when a good fixed second battery and lightweight DC2DC charger is available. However you can get lithium dual battery systems that are a fraction of the weight of AGM. Cheers
Hey ronny you should try go through Fraser island for the big test. But make sure you clean the car afterwards for no rust and also put a bulbar on it to Thanks
I got a new toyota the thing beeps at me so often and wont shut up im about to drive it through toyotas front window
Mate I would love to see a series where you really put this vehicle through its paces in stock form. I feel like we are all influenced by manafacutes promotion of products. I know I drove my vehicle for about 18 months with nothing but ATS and had a blast. Like push this thing until you find what parts are letting you down off road upgrade then go again. Even if you made a series of work and play aimed at basic kit outs to suit weekend trips but not inhibit the ability to say pick up the kids or use for tradey tools.
Congratulations!
I am currently modifying my 19.75 PX 3 Ranger.
So very keen to see what you do .
Keep up the good work !
I'm excited for you Ronny, congrats on your new beast :) and yes..... you should keep this one as LIGHT as possible!!! Cheers, Don (Dons Shed and Xplor Overland)
Awesome choice great to see someone doing a normal car people buy! I have a Ranger but keen to see what you do to the new Lux. You going to keep the tub?
Tub is staying for the foreseeable future 👍
Must be weird owning a vehicle with a working handbrake!
Don't be silly, it's still a Toyota.
For now
Um the hilux hand brake is terrible lol
Working for now because its new, not working later because its a Toyota.
Or have they fixed that on newer models?
Damn what are you guys doing with the handbrakes that’s you have to seriously comment on. I own a hilux and would love to know this issue.
Nice choice, I really like the new Hilux's, if they still had the mighty 1GR under the hood I'd happily upgrade to one.
Love the idea behind the build too, just upgrading as you find the need to do it, you get to know the vehicle so much better that way than you would by signing away your savings at the accessories store before you've even been anywhere.
All the best mate with your new offroader. Happy to see you sharing your love and passion in a right manner.
Would love to see your modification.
And yes it's a beautiful choice .
Toyota has proven its quality and practically in every country with they vehicles.
The same engine is on the Toyota Innova MUV here too.
Very reliable and torque filled engine
I wish it was possible to see this and a Tacoma side by side.
I prefer the Tacoma look but not in the UK unfortunately. Then again we don't need trucks too often lol
500nm Torque straight up Stock is pretty impressive
Regardless, it’s still great figures. Makes more NM than my Ute after a flash tune.
Uhhhh I Love the plans for the Hilux....... It's great that you are going to orient all the modifications for the regular people that own a 4WD....... Can't wait for the videos.... Greetings from Argentina.... we also are in love of the Hilux... most sold UTE in the Country.....
Wow! Awesome vehicle! Sorry, just me but like how you made a mark in the sand to get the best camera angle ... 11:08 in the video. Making sure everything is sorted with your presentation.. Good on you Ronnie! Again well done!
