So I just got this truck as man's getting older and practical and I'm loving it,maybe early excitement though,I don't know.
Things I noticed:
This thing burns a lot of gas,I mean a lot!15.5-15.6L/100km na em dey for dash steady ,used to be 14.3L/100km,don't know why it jumped.

Hard steering ,maybe because it's coming from someone that have been driving sedans for a while now and some CUVs.

Large turning space and poor manoeuvrability,Hilux no follow you manage space oo,you go reverse tire.

Sturdy suspension,you no dey feel anything.

Slow truck,crawls its way up to 170kph and stays there,sucks!

And I get free service for 20,000km or one year whichever comes first from the dealership at no cost.

Car came at 677km

Expensive purchase no doubt but worth it.

Congratulations. I bought mine in 2022 with a prado also 2022 model same year brand new and I'm still enjoying them till now. Tbh, both vehicles dey chop fuel eeh. My prado is a gas guzzling vehicle. Guess what? I later bought a sedan corolla but used, with a mileage of 60k, older model. I brought it in. That's what I drive to work daily in this tinubuconomy the hilux is for site inspection only, seldom go out with it. You'll enjoy it.

For real?
Oh nice to hear,thank you.
The Honda's still here,very rugged and too active.
And e no dey burn gas

Congrats man. I will get mine soon.

Am I the only one who thinks this is an ugly-looking automobile?

When I read it sucks gas then I think of it as a vampire.

Nice

Congratulations

Best car...i drive same.

As always. I drive the 2022 model which i bought same year, brand new. Your wrist watch is nice 👌. I wear the G-shock model too. I've been wearing casio edifice for over 10yrs now, the 2m configuration cos of swimming.

SeaTrade:
I don't even like the truck,I just went for practicality and simplicity over fancy.
I had 3 choices,
Fortuner, Prado,Hilux GR or normal hilux.
Picked the cheapest option tbh

Anyways,it's done,too late for options now.

As far as I'm concerned, the design brief for the Hilux must have been something like: "should be able to survive a nuclear blast".

The only error is the phasing out of manual transmissions.

Manual transmissions should be brought back.

I thought Naija has got to the point where everybody is hungry and none can afford this machine. Sorry, are you based in Ghana or Benin

There are millionaires in Somali and South Sudan , if you don’t know. The state of the nation is determined by the condition of the “masses” not a few privileged individuals. Nigeria is rich with natural resources that yield billions of dollars daily. But this money is not trickling down to the populace as it should. Hence the high poverty rate.

Manual transmissions haven't been phased out. Coscharis has that available for the 2025 model year.

You should have gone for the GR Sport, the one with BBL, it looks sexier.

Anyways, congratulations on your new whip.

Kudos to hose shouting "hunger in the land" o, na una know where una dey see hunger, person wey go eat belleful go eat belleful irrespective of the hunger in the land.



Congratulations to Mr seatrade jare, God will crown my efforts and do mine too, e no easy but we will scale through.

One of the best pickup trucks. Hilux and Tacoma 💪🏾

Nairaland shocked me. Them de use ai change sentences. I don die.

It’s a good buy on your next purchases consider electric car
Anything brand new car better to buy electric 50-70m and do solar 3m for house it will power the car u charge night when you come back by midnight he go don full it will last you 2-3 days

The next business that will boom in the zoo is electric cars.

4cyl Auto transmission.

Ford ranger is still kicking,though with a barrage of electrical problems.
That car died when I let charlatans touch it honestly.
Looking to get an L200 and rest and retire that ole miss,e don too chop my funds.
It's for my company anyways and I don't use it personally, bad operators too can also do a number on some of these machines.

I hv an L200
2020 manual
It's been used tho. Bought brand new.

Really? That's great to hear.

I have visited several Toyota showrooms over the years (only window shopping of course ) and I couldn't find a single manual transmission vehicle. Maybe I just had bad luck. Good to hear MTs still exist. But for how much longer?

There was a time we could get hydraulic power steering, normal (not electronic) parking brakes, automatic transmissions with a dipstick, normally aspirated engines, port injection etc. in your average vehicle. Nowadays, those features are slowly becoming extinct.

I hope the manual transmission survives.

That's the thing with Toyotas.

They aren't the prettiest automobiles. Not by a long shot.

They will not win any beauty contests. The styling of most Toyotas doesn't usually take your breath away.

But...unlike some other manufacturers (WMB and zneb sedecrem for example ) Toyota spends the money where it really matters - underneath the sheet metal. You can't see it - but its there.

Quality control. Stress testing. R & D. Supply chain management. Inventory management. That's where Toyota pours the money into - and it shows.

Toyota always gets the job done. Always.

Is this in Nigeria or where ?

For a brand new 2025 Toyota Hilux, you should be getting 2-3 years free service or not lees 40k mileage. Whichever comes first.

There should also be some warranty.

But if Naija, I go understand.
