      Toyota makes so many good work/4x4 trucks that we can't get in the US. I don't understand the economics or the reasoning. Wish they were sold here, prior to the 25 year import rule

          Oh, you might want to look into getting a side view mirror…

          (see what I did there?)

            Happy you guys and gals found my trustworthy Toyota interesting!

            @Chris - I misstated the engine specs…she’s actually a 3700 cc inline 4 cyl diesel. No turbo. The engine is so strong she gets the same mileage whether empty or fully loaded: 16 km/liter. And the mirror was lost after this mishap

            She was fully loaded then. We spent two hours offloadind, righting her and loading back up. That happened in a deep rut; luckily the dirt banks kept us at 45 degrees. She is less stable after I modified by bringing the leaf suspension from attaching under the axles to on top of them. Did that to reduce the frequency of getting stuck in deep mud. That modif and the extra large tires made me pay a price in stability.

            She doesn’t spend much time on roads so mirrors aren’t essential but I’ll soon get her one!

            @Sage954 - Toyota stopped building these in Brazil around 2003. They reckoned they would never be able to comply with upcoming emissions standards.

            I’ll be carrying lumber in her in a few weeks. I’ll try to get a nice pic to post here.

            The journey is the objective.

                                    I am in Laos and the car is in Chesterfield, UK. I am receiving limited info via email and Instagram (scoobyclinic). I received the image today, which I posted, but none of the Dyno data. The car is now to be driven on local roads at engine rpm < 3000 for 1000 miles. I am due to collect the car mid Feb.

                                      Your horn needs hiding, @den1mhead (pardon the phrasing).

                                      The one on my old Impreza was shocking. Sounded like Road Runner with a lung full of helium. Think it’s a Japanese thing.
