    Ha!

    My problem is that there literally isn't another truck I'd rather have, period. Sometimes you get lucky and find a pair of shoes or pickup truck that fits ya (and dog) just right = Gen1.

    I wish Toyota would sell Hiluxes and diesels in the US. Love my old Tundra. New Tacos not so much.

    That’s not accurate. There’s several biomes in the island chain, as well as multiple biomes on each island. Some areas are desert climate like Kona, or Waianae while other parts of the island would be a rainforest such as Hilo or tantalus are.
