Technically, before 1995, the US pickups were considered Hiluxes. In 1995 'Tacoma' was born in US markets. Hilux continued elsewhere around the world. The Tacoma is basically a Hilux with different styling and badging and no diesel.
Some of the later model Tacomas are made in Japan, Fremont California, and some in Mexico.

are they made at NUMMI? I thought NUMMI was Matrix and Corolla? learn something new everyday. Does the Hilux have hte 4.0 liter v6? or only the 2.7? I also thought the new Hilux was 5 lug? I guess i should pay more attention.
