Hilux question

[robin.kevin]

What the difference between the Tacoma and Hilux? The Hilux seems to look a bit diffrent but is that it? Also is there any way to get a Hilux in the US?

I know they are still production but I didnt know where else to post, sorry.

The Hilux is used as a commerical vehicle in many parts of the world while the Tacoma is used more for personal use.

Differences that I know of are.

1. Hilux uses a fully boxed frame Tacoma uses C channel from cab back
2. Payload is significantly higher in Hilux..even more than Tundra
3. Diesel options available
4. Interiors are different

The Tacoma just looks tough the Hilux is tough .

I'm sure you could git them imported in...if yer willing to pay all the costs associated with them to git them up to US standards.

HILUX is a sicker mofo out of the box. Got to drive one during a recent trip to mexico. I like the looks better, less bulge. Other than what pagemaster wrote, I don't other differences. the gears seemed lower than a 07 taco pre runner, then again I've only driven an auto pre runner.
