They are not the same. They may have been marketed as such, but have
different payload capacities, interior, etc. Only thing that is really
the same is the frame and some of the body. I have driven both and if
you think that a tacoma is a good work truck after you drive a hilux
that would costs significantly less there would be no question of the
one you would want. If it weren't for the light duty truck import tax we
would likely be able to get a diesel hilux for less than 35k. It would
be hard for you to get a base line tacoma for that. I wouldn't trade my
F350 in for one, but I'd definitely have one rather than trying to get
an all wheel drive maverick hybrid for a daily driver.

They seem pretty cool. Might make a decent install truck if
your not in the mountains.
I was reading about the new Toyota Hilux Champ the other day.
I really want one, but not likely we will see them in the US.
Its really a shame that we can't own these trucks just so we
could keep our monopoly on chicken in Europe. You know if a
politician wants my vote they can run on the platform of
allowing the import of Toyota Hilux trucks.

Great to carry some people/tools (cheap!). Terrible if you

I’ve seen some Ford Mavericks on the road but they don’t
seem like serious work trucks – all cab and no bed. It
looks like you can get as much or more in the bed of one
of the little kei trucks.

They're super cool toys, there's one around here locally
that shows up at the car shows all the time.
