BingoBoingo wonders why Toyota refuses to sell the Hilux Stateside
TomServo: BingoBoingo: I wonder the same. If you have a theory, I'd love to hear it.
BingoBoingo: TomServo: Well I'd speculate that in the US it is easy enough to sell disposable consumer motor vehicles, so durability may not be much of a selling point
BingoBoingo: TomServo: Also, maybe Toyota views witholding the Hilux from certain markets a for of arms control
TomServo: BingoBoingo: I always thought it had something to do with the aversion to diesel.
BingoBoingo: TomServo: That too, but that's too common sense
