1991 Toyota Hilux Pickup Diesel 5sp Double Cab (USA Import) Japan Auction Purchase Review

[@Okie93]

I actually just purchased the truck in this video. I can say I didn't recognize it at first because the paint is in worse shape now. It was off roaded a few times at least. A lot of work was done to it by previous owner, and it still runs and drives great! Probably repaint and do body work in the next year...

[@Adi-kr5nd]

awesome! would you care to share some videos on it?

[@marcelopepinho]

I love this old school Hilux ... I had one 1995 and miss a lot ....This type of pick up is still used in Middle East and Asia - particularly Afhganistan ....Why do they use? Because it goes to the extreme ...it never breaks and the engine can reach 1million km ...

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

It's also very popular in south America and central america. It's popular everywhere basically, except America, cause we didn't get the double cab and it's a small/midsized truck. Only now midsized pickup trucks are gaining traction, mainly cause they're less thirsty than a full size truck, as gas prices go up sadly

[@LachlanPhil]

They're really popular in Australia too

[@RioGamer]

Really popular in New zealand

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

@Navigator Rock Sorry to hear that! The buyer probably took advantage of her... it sucks when people do that to our parents This truck is awesome and I would love to own one if I could!

[@bastianpate-uc5hd]

Very popular in south america, I am from Chile and we have them everywhere. We use them for heavy work on farms. They can go easy 500.000 km with nothing but oil and filter change. Hard steel and high quality engine. My family had several over the decades, they will keep working when others stop. Japanese cars are built to last so are old German cars unlike american cars that are only big but trash. I have seen hiluxes taken bad beatdowns during work but their engines will keep going.

[@adityaputratama2]

The unbreakable!

[@skeleguns10oooooo10]

Jeremy Clarkson proves

[@haydenfyfe885]

This is the Toyota Hilux SR5 4WD Crew cab pickup truck. A 4WD Crew cab pickup ute that can haul heavy items. It is the unbreakable ute throughout Japan and made from the USA import and may tow 3kg towing capacity.

[@snatchbandicoot]

I never thought that "it's the one the terrorists use" would be a good selling point for an item... I guess it is.. Someone needs to look into Toyota's marketing division.

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

Terrorists aside, if it's durable enough to be used as a war vehicle in the desert, I think that's pretty good PR for Toyota lol

[@Fayyazshk]

Australia and NZ get so many good japanese cars!

[@christopherwaits7852]

For those unaware, Toyota discontinued the Hilux after a short run of 1995 models in the US and introduced the Tacoma which is a NA model only. Looks similar and basically doesn’t drive much different than the 5th gen Hilux, but I guess the US execs felt they needed a truck more tailored to the US. Hilux and Tacoma aren’t the same, despite similar styling (they’re still Toyota’s after all)

[@renesantanamedina382]

Lo peor descontinuar algo que si vale la pena tener

[@m24hel74]

The Ford raptor is a girly truck next to this Hilux. If trucks were still made like this nobody would buy them.

[@nicholasmaher9175]

The American market did get this version, though not in this configuration, it was just called Pick Up, without a real name. Hilux and Hilux Surf (Tacoma and 4 Runner in the NADM market) share the same suspension components actually, the difference between them is that the Surf (4 Runner) used a coil spring rear axle.

[@maravilla1992]

I just simple love the hilux, and will be happy if I can own one

[@vinkoivomilicdiaz6932]

That window deflectors are the best factory item!!!

[@nickmarangos2475]

I have a 2.8 turbo diesel!!! Freaking beast of a car! Great video!!

[@noetobar5018]

How you get a turbo in it?

[@buddy8225]

Toyota pickups are one of my favorite trucks. That one would make a great Overland rig.

[@mcbain3949]

The ones round here in south east Asia are 2.4 . Awesome trucks that outshine the big trucks in many ways .

[@BearInThePhillipines]

Hello from Phillipines. Just bought 2001 Hilux Surf Turbo diesel. I just retired driving Kenworth and Peterbilt work trucks Caterpillar engines.. My personal truck 98 Dodge cummins 12v 4x4. This little turbo diesel toyota purrs like a kitten

[@thesis4349]

Oh, you find a lot of this in Brazil, but they're expensive but great cars to have, it's not that easy to find one on sale.

[@mickgerkinsquirter1736]

It always amazes me we want what we don't have!. Here in Australia we have thousands of these trucks and in better condition that this one. I had one for 13 years did 250,000 km and it was like new. Yet because it was not sold in the US, Americans want them. Here in Australia we want the full size pickups from Chevy and Ford. They were sold here years ago but not recently. Each truck has its charms; I'd seriously recommend any American buyers try to find one in Australia as our dollar is only .75 USD and there are thousands to choose from.

[@tacodude286]

I'm looking in Japan and Australia. The latest Year we can import is 1993 and it looks like the 2.8 diesels are the way to go.

[@mickgerkinsquirter1736]

The 2.8 was bullet proof but were all naturally aspirated so good power at low speeds, not so great on the highway. But an aftermarket kit would be available. Top spec here was the SR5, no V6 at that time. Australian price for an immaculate example could be $8,000 to 12,000

[@tacodude286]

Thanks for the info! I'm working with an importer here in Houston Texas that imports from Australia so definitely looking.

[@christopherwaits7852]

I wish we got double cab versions of the Hilux, but not with the diesels. Way too underpowered for here in the States. 22R-E is good enough for me. You trade us the Hilux and 70 series Land Crusier and we’ll give you all the Fords and Chevys you want

[@rogermiller6049]

In the United States we did get this model truck. We just didn't get the four door version of it.

[@adriantrejo6696]

In diesel?

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

Which sucks

[@KelNg130]

true, but still, the toyota pickup with the 22R/22RE are still just as reliable and legendary as the diesel hilux of that time. I still drive a 90s toyota pickup with the 22R carbureted engine to this day!

[@Camhin1]

How can someone not like you Derek?!

[@psmith85channel5]

Can you give a range on what this era of Hilux usually goes for?

[@tacodude286]

Saw these all over the middle East. I wish I could get one here in Texas.

[@jacobsheatsley3080]

It's mine and in Arkansas now! Been enjoying it, might sell for the right price

[@tacodude286]

I am definitely interested. My email is [e-mail] when you get the chance.

[@jacobsheatsley3080]

I will send you an email

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

They're everywhere except in the US sadly, companies think Americans don't want smaller trucks but I don't think that's true. A lot of people don't need to carry too much, that a small pickup truck won't carry or tow. Full size Trucks are mostly overkill for most people tbh

[@morgan3072]

South America and Central America You can see a lot of this trucks

They need the oil changed every 5000klms. Because they are indirect injection, they add carbon pretty quick.

[@gabbyvillocillo8117]

Is there any aftermarket support for performance upgrades on this truck?

[@MaIagoli]

Toyota Goat, haha Really like this cars too... and there are plenty of them here in South America! .. But they aren't cheap.. every type of them hold value really really well compared to other similar pickups around.

no its a ute

How much money is considered pricey for you guys?

[@PacificCoastAuto]

Prices on these change over time but right now, it's about $10,000 - $15,000 USD landed for one of these.

do the USA and Canada imports have to be converted to LHD i know if we want a Ford F250 here in Australia you have to pay $35'000 to convert it from LHD to RHD

[@machscope]

The Wide Open Life Nope, we can have the imports as is with no LHD conversion.

Hi, Dude! How is going? :-) I just can't understand why do this Hiluxes still cost more than mine Mitsubishi L200 (or JDM Strada) MY'2005? Mine has an ABS, power windows and mirrors, a pneumatic rear DiffLock, two 90 A*h batteries, widebody fenders, seat heaters and 120bhp 2.5 turbodiesel? WHY??? Only because of solid front end or due to it is a 25-year old Toyota which won't break? :-D (Added) Oh, mean, this one even has an independent suspension. Why, Derek? Why are they so expensive? Is is an utility cheap vehicle. Why even a Surf is cheaper? Nice photo at 1:14. :-)

[@worldhello1234]

"Why, Derek? Why are they so expensive? Is is an utility cheap vehicle. Why even a Surf is cheaper?" Easy, because only actual cowboys ride this horse and when a cowboy invests in a horse, he makes money with it instead of just showing off. ;)

Dang, once that thing touches US soil, itll most likely be turned into a rock crawler or prerunner so gone with the diesel (not a lot of power to us americans) and in with a 350 v8 or 1uz with method wheels and fox shocks on a 6 in lift lol

How much does this car cost

[@arefeshghi]

why do you leave the engine on?

[@PacificCoastAuto]

Typically we let the engines run for about 15 minutes during the review to give them a chance to warm up to operating temp. Sometimes problems can only be found once they are warm. It is easier to fix problems before they go off for shipping.

[@orampage1_462]

[@30minforasn]

Hey Derick how pricey are these. Iv been looking for one too but never knew the japanese name. Can you give me a rough estimate?

[@jacobsheatsley3080]

I'm the guy that won this at auction they go from 450,000Yen - 1,800,000 Yen. They are hard to find without having over 250K KM and rust... lots of rust. This one I won for 750,000Yen, after shipping and paying Derek's fee I'm at $9,000 USD right now. (this will go up especially if the US customs person views this as a 25% taxable truck).. Derek and pacific Coast have been a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend them. Crazy part is that in my part of the US a 2000-2004 4Door 4x4 Tacoma gas 3.4L w/ 200,000 miles goes for 9 -14K... So even after shipping and taxes, importer fees, PC fees I will be in the same neighborhood.

[@30minforasn]

Hey thanks alot for the reply. In the US still a decent one with well over 200k still will go for a good 6k n up. So i consider that a solid to a very good deal.

[@KelNg130]

The hilux and pickup were essentially the same truck. It's only a difference in name because we refer to that truck as the "pickup" in the US, while the rest of the world called it hilux. I don't think the diesel version was sold in the US, as the petrol engine (22R/22RE) was more favorable in the north american market.
