RE: After sitting in a field for 6 years. It takes a 800 mile trip to Houston... And much more.
I had a Hilux pick up model year 1990 and i've read this post with great interest and i feel kind of touching seeing this truck. These trucks are extremely reliable und undestroyable nice to see that with a little effort you ve bring it back to duty. Nice post i ve enjoyed reading it.
These trucks are definitely reliable. Though they are a little scary to drive without ABS brakes and airbags.
Not at all! For me it has been great fun to drive it although of course didn't had Air Bags or ABS or even air conditioning or power steering it has been for me a real thing to drive regarding complete concentration because its ride quality unloaded was kind of unpredictable i d say. Its rear suspension was constructed for heavy loads and while on the bed was no load the back of the truck was jumping on every bump of the pavement and it was real pain to drive for long distances. Beside the very uncomfortable cabinseat me and my wife we were making long trips and had some wonderful and unforgettable holidays with this track while we were young and bold.
