I have one of these, but in Central America where they’re plentiful. I personally think it’s a good looking truck. Very basic even when fully loaded compared to anything marketed for the USA. Solid diesel engines and solid suspension. I’d love to bring mine back to the US, but the import process is a turn-off for anyone.
I’m actually in the process of bringing my ‘14 Jetta TDI to Central America. Even on this 10 year old vehicle, import duties are ridiculous. But I know the car is worth bringing since I’m about to permanently reside here.
Oh, and by the way, a Hilux, like some other Toyotas, keep high resale value. I’m about to trade in this 2019 model for a 2023. My 2019 has 75,xxx km. I’ll only pay a difference of about $4,000 to upgrade.
