New member, Hello from Chile

[zolo]

Hello from the south of Chile, Currently rocking a 120 Prado and a 07 Hilux.
Prado is modified with the basics and the Hilux is stock.
Its used as a work truck more than anything.
Prado has a factory LSD as does the Hilux.
The Prado is lifted with full skid plates and a snorkel. Basic stuff really.
Only had the Prado about a year. But it has taken us all over Patagonia in both Chile and Argentina. Good truck, nice to drive and travel in.
Anyhow. Cheers from the south.

Welcome

Is a HiLux a RX in our country?

Hmmm not sure I understand? Which country and what do you mean by RX?

 

[GXO]

A Hilux isnt anything in our country...closest thing to it is a Tacoma...but a Hilux is better.

If you're referring to the Lexus RX that's a big negative.
The lexus RX is a unibody crossover. Not even close to a real deal SUV.
My Hilux has a fully boxed frame. Turbo diesel engine, heavy duty suspension. Low ratio first gear trans, manual tcase. Ultra low gears in the tcase, LSD rear diff and in general is a tank. Its rides like one too
Its more heavy duty that a Tacoma like Dan said.

So a HD version of the Tacoma. Got it.

Totally different truck from the Tacoma but the Tacoma is the most similar in the US correct.

A hilux is the next best thing to a 70 series land cruiser in terms of workhorse

Welcome to Mud. Those are some nice trucks you've got. The scenery looks amazing there! You should drop a pin in Chile on the map.
