    google tells me the second gen BT-50 is on the same base as the Ranger but the current BT-50 is based on the Izuzu D-Max

    For anyone that is into collecting upvotes there are free ones given out in this thread for anyone that says nice things about Hiluxes (what is the plural? Hiluxi?)

    I will make space in my cellar for those that don't.

    A family friend had a Hilux for the farm. They had it in the 80's when I was a kid and I am pretty sure it was still going a few years ago before they sold the farm. It survived being sideswiped at the Whangamata turn off at Hikuai by american tourists.

    I remember we had a day out with that family in the hilux joining a 4wd trip up somewhere off highway 25A. Never got stuck and we were pulling out the drivers from Pauanui in there Lada looking 4WD's.

    I drive a Cerato and I still need a big mortgage to fill it up.

    No gloating to come from here sir.

    @voodoo I was just going to answer your question - "No" but you didn't say anything nice about Hiluxi so I figured I'd insult your car (not you).

    Hilux's are overpriced and overrated and have rested on their laurels for 20 years

    @mariner4life GFYs.

    I miss @jegga He was a hiluxophile and would not have stood for that sort of shit either.

    Actually, you saved yourself a very nasty stay in the cellar with the last bit because I agree with that (although you are out by about a year. 19 would be better).
