The reason why is that it is a well engineered diesel engine.
Some people just don't like change, but this is for the better.

The current hilux is rated to 2250 . Yet mine can't handle my little tvan without the auto temp light coming on . Imagine if I had towed near its limit of 2250 . Come on

Roo I'm all for change, thats why I keep an open mind about what is the best bang for buck. I do between 40-50K kms a year, often loaded up, I know that the 1GD is fine in lighter applications, I am unsure how it will hold out in 40c towing a tonne in a trailer in a near two tonne chassis.
There's change, then there's reality. I am well connected in Toyota Aus, even they are worried!
