Toyota Tundra

I watched another video on a Toyota Tundra and I would love to own one. I know they're coming into Australia through Toyota themselves with the help of a local company to do the conversion.

A year ago I got pricing on getting a brand new one. To get it here at the harbour already converted to right hand drive was a little more expensive than a new 300 which I thought was fair but, getting it through customs and paying taxes is extra and my problem which makes sense but does anyone know what the process and costs are?

Think they are very nice bakkies. When my brother were in the States in 2014 he had the 5.7l V8. According to him it were the best vehicle he have ever owned.
In 2011 I tried to import a v8 Ranger Raptor. Its price were more than double if I could land it here with all the duties. In the end I just gave up with all the red tape involved.

Maybe contact a company like US Trucks, they specialize in importing and converting the RAM, but might be able to help.

I found myself watching a lot of videos on the TRX.

I just got a Toyota Tundra. Coming from a Landcruiser 79 D/C, its a world apart. No 79's in Canada. Only big Toyota trucks here are gas engined Tundra's. Very smooth and have plenty of power. About 390 hp. I think its the same motor as the L/C 300.

I got the 5.5 foot bak. Easier to drive around town than the 6.5. So far, i love it.
