What's the deal with Generations?
I have always referred to my 1987 Hilux as a 4th generation, but I am seeing people calling it a 2nd generation, Whats the deal with that?

Whoops, my bad.
I knew there was a 2 year gap between the T-100 and Tundra, must have got my brain confused and just thought 2002. Haha
Was the FJ45 technically the 1st Toyota pickup truck?

I meant 1st 4x4 Toyota pickup, haha sorry.
According to that wikipedia article, a 3rd generation Stout was produced, that as far as I can tell, looks almost identical to a 1st generation 4x4 pickup..
Anyone got more info on this vehicle?
From what I've read, they were 2wd only.
Says they may have been produced until 2000. Would like to check one of those out.

In Venezuela and Ecuador, the single-cab 2WD chassis/long bed is called the Stout II
The wiki refrence link for that stout mentioned has Body panels listed. Long box, short box, and 4 door OH my.. Options Options and more Options. The US got screwed.. And don't get too excited the convertible is a tease it's a bed canopy once you get past the thrumbnails.

So the '79-'83 Toyota "pickup" is obviously known as a Hilux in other countries but also a "Stout"? I'm curious if the 3rd gen Stout made in 2000 looks identical to our 1st gens, or if they updated some things/changed with the Hilux's body changes..
I certainly wouldn't mind having an old 2nd gen Stout as a DD:

There are two forms of stout the original and the lite, the US version RK41 was a lite and why the L or RK41-L the rest of the world had RK40 that was replaced by the RK43 lite stouts or 1500 that had independent coil front suspension. The RK45, RK47, RK100 and RK101 were front beam axle with leaf springs as were the third generation hilux style RK110, RK111 and YK110 had leaf front springs that were the same as the first generation hilux four wheel drives. So actually the first generation four wheel drives are actually a four wheel drive version of the stout and the only hilux that was sold as a stout is in certain south american countries is known as the stout II when the original stouts ended production in 2000
