Yeah, I used to have a Toyota pickup and that thing was glow and gutless but it was basically indestructible.

There are always trade offs. Their vehicles are generally not pushed hard the way they are tuned. Part if the indestructability.

Hear hear Dave.
My 2 litre 1988 Hilux is still road legal- just spend some serious coin on rust cutting to keep it that way- have added a 2.4litre 2002 LWB Hiace to the fleet. Great for travel as its a home away from home.
More modern Toyotas have too much power capacity for my liking- here in NZ they compete with Fords Ranger utes in a race for speed and power I don't want to be part of.
Both my Toyotas run on LPG - sweeter and gentler on the engine than petrol - hoping to get 500000km out of them both - if I last long enough to see it!
