Ive never seen a lux smoke the rear wheels up for the length of a carpark before
they go, and make my prado look like a NA 2.8D!
But it still looks like someone tapped an air line into the old hilux and inflated it till it started to pop!

I'm over in Thailand for 1 month at the moment for work and have just seen the update look of our new Hilux.
I'll take a pic when I get a chance.
They are all BAD.
The new ones also come out with a 2.5D4D diesel as well as the 3.0D4D.
Oh and they don't call them "Action Utility Vehicle"
The D4D engine came out in Thailand in 1997.You can buy a second hand diesel with computer for A$1500 .I am looking at buying one and putting in mine.Got to work out overal cost.
Cheers

I am keen to hear what the auto goes like in the diesel.

Driver in question had just jumped out of a fully laden 2.4petrol Hiace bus into this thing, took off, went to change into 2nd, gave it a bootfull and slipped teh clutch- like you have to in a gutless petrol van..... and she transfered the duelers to the car park!
I think toyota have bought nissan LSD's tho! this thing left 2 black lines!

Well, that's one good point I guess, the LSD works...
(I wonder how it works with 1 wheel in the air......)
Thanks for your reply mate, I hope the auto goes well like the manuals.
