I can say that I lived in Japan for a year and half back in 95 and 96. The streets are narrow and small. The gas is very exspencive. I was in the Navy..so, I had to get my D.L. as a duty driver. Not sure if I would want a full size truck. If I was Toyota I would question that thought. It would please the Americans But in their Country...Everyone rides bikes,motor bikes and very small cars. I know here in Texas, San Antonio...They have started on a Toyota Plant. Maybe they will belt out the "full size truck". But, then again....that is just my thoughts and what I have seen over in japan. I perfer my 80 toy...Simple, clean and A STRONG.!!
