YO, love the truck! Honestly, one of my fav reviews so far on the channel.

An old neighbor had one, 4x2, bare basic. 2.8 diesel (here in Brazil), no turbo, only 77 horsepower, but ran forever. He was an old mechanic, always carrying stuff everywhere. Back then (this was roughly 25 years ago) I didn't care much about them, so I never bat an eye. In 2021, long after I had moved outta the neighborhood, I went to pay him a visit and found out he had passed away some years before, 2019 I think. I felt pretty sad, he was a very good-hearted individual. I don't know what was of the truck, I think the family sold it. If he was still alive and I had the coin, I would've bought that truck from him.

This is how environmentally friendly vehicles should be made. Simple works every time. Less resources used,even less to maintain it and it will work reliably until either rust eats it or road accident destroys it.

Even Toyota changed tack after this though. Instead of making electrical switches with contacts thick enough to last for 1,000,000 cycles like on this Hilux they started to think "why are we doing that when we could make contacts only thick enough to last for 50,000 cycles and save cost?" 🙁

Older port-injected petrol engines are typically far superior than direct-injected (yet more economical) petrol engines, in terms of the former producing less particulates. The former tend to be pretty good -- there is a study which compares the Japanese & Californian petrol-hybrid approach (i.e., Priuses for everybody) to the European diesel approach (i.e., Polo TDIs and Fiesta diesels for everybody) and finds the former far superior in terms of urban air quality. Obviously the diesel Hilux/pickup without any particulate filter, not so much.

It was great the time about a year ago on the highway I passed either a _really old_ Toyota or Ford pickup (forget now), made curious who was driving such a thing. I became more captivated the old guy had his dog sitting in the passenger seat. Maybe the mental image is infinitely better than a real picture.

In 2003 I bought a 1990 Pickup for $700. It had spent its entire life as a pizza delivery truck at the restaurant i delivered for and i used it for a few more years. That thing was completely beat to crap, but the 22RE gave me no issues. No AC, but it had little vent windows to keep me cool.

We had an old Pizza Hut Ford Ranger, just a tiny white box with an engine in it, needed concrete slabs in the bed in the winter or it had zero traction.

I love the details on this particular truck and its small homage to the Pizza Planet 'YO' tailgate. What's interesting is that you really don't see many of these on the roads in North America because this particular 'Toyota Pickup' (as it was actually called, rather than a Hilux) was in a transition zone between the late 80's Hiluxes with the claw-strap bed lips and the soon to be immensely popular Tacoma. Like many an old Nissan or Mazda truck, these too were beaten to hell and run into the ground.. good examples are a rarity.

I can definitely say, as someone familiar with the T100 here, and the Hilux in Africa, that this is the strongest truck I’ve even seen or driven!

I love the old school vehicles more than the current ones. Toyota has always been one of the most reliable car names out there.

Bought mine new in 94 208 k miles. Most reliable truck I’ve ever owned. Never selling it. I get offers all the time for it.

I have this same truck in white and with only 164k miles on it. The inside and outside looks brand new. Definitely turns heads and I get offers on it pretty much every week. I love these trucks.

Great truck. Had an 81 toyota pickup. Basically the same thing with a carbureted engine. Here in the midwest rust got most of them.

Out here in Idaho none of our vehicles rust so you can actually see what lasts and what doesn’t, I see these absolutely everywhere and mine is 30 years old and has 275k miles and still runs

The back bumper was also an option. Super base model Toyotas did not come with a back bumper. My dad had to haggle with the dealership for quite a while to get one with a back bumper & AC. He bought the 1994. Although he sold it in '97, I see it every other day where an old-time mechanic dailies it. He won't sell it to me just yet though...

according to ur macaoni styling, this is sort of my version to that, my grand uncle have a White one and and i grew up in a 4th gen Hiace which its interior looks very alike. and this is my favorite toyota era. in general i dont like toyotas (like the mid 2000s and some new ones) but this is my favorite because the shifter is nice and its simple to drive and CHILDHOOD NOSTALGIA

I had the same truck in Green. I even had the same after market steel bumper that is on your model. But mine was a 1993. I believe your truck is also a 1993 model since it has the two ovals badge. The 1992 had the "TOYOTA" badge. And 1994 had the rear brake light. And I had "YOT" on my tailgate. Unfortunately, the 22RE engine developed an idle surge at only 180K miles. And 3rd gear would pop out. So it drove it another 40K with those two problems. On the day I sold it, 3rd gear started to work again.

I have a92 manual rwd . About to get the timing chain and pumps done. I may do it myself. But. Idku ordered all the parts even gonna replace the radiator

Awesome review...

Love my 94! Exact same color! 135k miles, 5 speed, 22re!

I own a 92 toyota DLX cab v6 3.0 4x4. Ran GREAT until It blew the headgasket, so I had the engine rebuilt at 300,000 miles. Just got it back from the shop...I'm a HAPPY woman again now that i've got my truck back on the road for another 300,000 miles🤩😆!!

God what I would do for a brand new off the lot, 0 miles, Toyota pickup with the 22RE.

Toyota built these trucks so solid that they last a very long time. They keep going on and on like the energizer battery. You might say Toyota overbuilt them.

I've got a modern version of it, the 2.7L Tacoma and plan on it being my daily for the next 20+ years.

3:20 Tacoma followed that tradition to this day 😅 My 2021 Tacoma can't fit big bottles, too 🤣

Best big friggin bottle test of all time. 11/10 would test again

I had a 92 4x4 with a 22re and a 3inch body lift with 33s I picked up for $1500 that got hit so i decided I wouldn't put any money into it, It threw every code from thottle body to 02 sensor and drove down the road just fine when i sold it 7 years later for $1000. Had the full BTTF smithy set with the 2x1 lightbar. Just a shame the front drivers side was crushed in.

Old Toyota + manual transmission = double layers of reliability security

Been driving mine for ten years now and it has all the extras except AC. Vent windows, center armrest, extra gauges, door cubbies, xtra cab, and I couldn't take it anymore. Finally installed AC on it this summer since parts are getting scarce. Only left me stranded once early on because I neglected the water pump/alternator belt. The battery eventually died but it never overheated a single bit, I thought it was the alternator itself. It will probably outlive me, ticking into the distance

Have a 1992 Toyota PU. Four cylinder 4 speed. Yard truck and solid as a rock. Always starts and runs and runs with 144 thousand miles. Couldn’t ask for a better work truck for 700 dollars.

Easily the best looking pickup of the 90's. My dad had one, brand new in 1994. 6 months after he bought it, It got hit in the rear with me in it when he forgot to set the parking break and it rolled into traffic. Totaled it. I fortunately came out unscathed.

In the middle east toyota but the 22r in the cressida with 5 speed manual as 4 cylinder option What a great car it drives better than pick up

Ive been driving my 92 xcab toyota pickup since 04. I've driven it to places a two wheel drive truck probably shouldnt go. I have lived out of the back of the thing when times got hard for a little while. Best damn truck in the world. If it breaks, I just fix it and its back for more.

i learned stick on one and still drive it to this day with +250,000 miles probably one of the best first cars for anyone EVER

Perfect vehicle. A/C because lets face it. It's getting more and more essential for survival. No frills other than that. Perfect runabout

Fix the ac (optional) and put a decent sound system in it and this is all the car you need for the rest of your life.

The very definition of a pickup truck. It's built to do one thing: carry stuff with an adequate amount of comfort and speed. This is what made Toyota legendary. The only things that can kill these are rust and crashes.

I miss simplistic small trucks like this.

This is one of the trucks to have ever existed that I would shoot myself in the face to get.

Several billion years into the future, we will experience the heat death of the entire universe and all life as we know it will cease forever in the empty, starless void. You turn the keys on this Toyota. It still runs.
