Got lots of love for the Toyota HiLux. I own one with Oliver and yesterday I got it back after having it in the shop for two weeks. It was overheating only slightly but enough to be an annoyance. We traced the problem down to a bad head gasket which I decided to replace. They repainted the motor and told me that everything (valve alignment, piston alignment, and block) looks good. It has nearly 300,000 kilometers (about 180,000 miles), but it drives like new. A tank.

Nice Man....Toyota's run forever.....and this thing looks like a BEast...
Peace
I have a 1987 Toyota truck with 160,000 miles on it. It still runs just fine. It is so reliable and good that I drove it all the way from CA to MN. It was a magnet for Mexican landscapers in Socal. I would go somewhere and always find a note on it asking if I wanted to sell it. Every time I see footage of a war-torn African country on the news, I inevitably see my identical blue truck with a machine gun mounted in the back. It got so bad that at one point Toyota put out an official press release stating that they don't sell their trucks to terrorists, but their trucks are so reliable, that they are the truck of choice for terrorists!
