New Hilux Siting

[haydukelives]

Saw three of these on flat bed heading north on I-85 between Atlanta and Greenville, SC. I thought we couldn't import hiluxs, especially the new ones. Oh well I thought that y'all might know more about their availability in the states.

Cheers,

Noel


P.S. I tried to embed the photo using a flickr url but no luck, any suggestions?

I think thats a Tacoma. They look very similar, did you happen to notice the badging on the side?

the hilux has a different box. That looks to be a tacoma box.

 

[climber-420]

it most definitely says Hilux on the side.

The Hilux has that box and then the box with the hook points on the side. I drive them everyday :bike_rider:

That looks like the same hilux spotted near Reno.. do they all have those light bars stock? Or can we assume it was customized for the same client?

Are they preparing a secret invasion by the taliban with these tailban tanks?

I bet they all have diesels too.

So the Hilux trucks have been all across America now....without even touching the road!

And we all want one, at least the small diesel up front.

The badging on the side said 3.0 D. The trucks had roll bars, custom front and rear bumpers with welded shackle mounts. The semi was non descript, they could have been heading out towards fort bragg? A lot of trucks are taking the southern route with I 40 still closed through Western NC.
