Hey all,

Have been looking round for a new truck, and have come across a 2001 toyota hilux model which has the 3.0l diesel engine in it. Many things i have heard is that they are slow, whats your guys thoughts?

Cheers

Is that a 5L or 5Le? They have heaps of take off torque, use less fuel/kw than petrol, but are neither fast nor quick. They run a long time with few problems until abt 250,000km, then after a head job and some other things will do the same again. See my other posts, particularly buying a used hilux diesel.
