Hi all. Great forum, I'm glad to find it. I'm from Pittsburgh PA. I've always been interested in cars and trucks, but never did much of my own work on any of my vehicles. I heard that the older Toyota trucks are easy to work on, so I bought a 1987 4X4 Longbed Toyota Pickup with only ~43,000 original miles on it. What a find!! I was also inspired by the BBC program "Top Gear" when they tried to destroy an 88 Hilux...and failed...twice. Simply Awesome. Many crazy videos on YouTube of people trying to kill these trucks to no avail. It's really extraordinary how much abuse a yota can take. Anyway, I'm very happy with the truck. It's a lot like a military vehicle. Almost no luxuries (at least compared to most newer vehicles), and looks kinda mean
...I love it! This is a new hobby for me, so I'm sure I'll have some stupid newbe questions in the near future...please bare with me
Thanks for making an ice breaker thread,
Tim
