Transplanted Texan living in Germany 7 years and many to go. Bought my dream rig (Toyota Hilux) 3 years ago and slowly getting it ready for some Overlanding. First big trip will be a 1000+km jaunt from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic through the Pyrenees mountains of Northern Spain/Southern France. Started off with a slick finish on the paint (gotta look good), dropped some Method Racing wheels on the 4 corners, and have a a few more necessities to go. The ‘Lux is no rocket, but it pulls like a beast with the Turbo Diesel.

Hello Jason and welcome to the OB crew...great looking Toy and look forward to seeing your build and your adventures.
 
Welcome to the Crew from one transplant to another. Love the Hilux. What motor do you have - the GD or KD? I’ve got a J150 with the 1KD. Hope to see you on the trail or at a meet up.
 
Okay, the GD. “Relatively” new but I’ve heard nothing but good stuff about the it. I’m in Germany, Hessen.
