My grandfather used to have a yellow '77 Hilux like this one but with the 1600 engine and a column shift which appeared to be the H-pattern flipped upside down, but once you get used to it, it is pure joy to shift! The first gear was extra low and the truck (or bakkie as we call it) would easily spin on tarmac. It could exceed 120 km/h easily on a level road. I drove it with a heavy foot compared to how my grand dad did and the overrun would make a loud trumpet sound during gear changes! The day my grand dad sold it, I realized the accelerator cable was not even fully adjusted! :(

I drive a 78 4 speed everyday. I love this truck so much I'm thinking of fixing the rust. I rev the crap out of it and drive it like a supra. I'm thinking if putting gills on the fenders and for ultimate appeal a shaker hood. Kinda transform it into a toycuda. Carburated cars rock-- way more connected to the machine than fi

Just picked up a 1975 Toyota hilux that's great, but pulls super hard to the right on big bumps especially at higher speed. Anybody have an idea of what the issue could be?

Anybody else cringe at his calling it a "He-lux". It is a Hi-lux. Short for high luxury.

Arghh you American's annoy me with you prenounciation it's a HI...LUX not a HE..LUX it literally says Hilux

@timothy2935 Жыл бұрын

Bruh I can assure you as an American and the owner of a 77 sr5 longbed hilux , we pronounce things however the fuck we want, even if we know the real pronunciation we don't give a fuck and will say it wrong all day if we feel like it , plus in American English a hilux is also a commonly known shape. Pronounced heel-lux a fucking word we have heard before. also there's no one around to correct us but this is the response you'll usually get when you try 😆 I've never called my own 77 anything but a pickup or if im being specific an sr5 but hi-lux ima start using that one so I can tell people it stands for high luxury 🤣 thanks dude
