    Happy with your car? Settle the remaining 70%, or arrange approved financing, then complete the title and registration paperwork. If it is not right for you, request a return within the trial period.

A clear decision, with the costs in view.

Return policy: Under the agreed trial terms, the full 30% vehicle deposit is refundable if you decline the car within seven days. A separate $200 transportation charge applies when you return or decline it. The trial has no rental charge, but returning the car is not cost-free.

Before payment: Your written order must confirm the delivery date and address, trial start/end time, mileage allowance, insurance and driver requirements, condition/damage responsibilities, return arrangements and refund timing. Do not pay until those details and vehicle availability are confirmed.

Transparent totals: No undisclosed Aurelia service or intermediary fees. Applicable sales tax, title, registration and any agreed third-party charges must be itemized or expressly included in your written total before payment. The displayed deposit is calculated on the vehicle price.

Title & installments: We coordinate the sale documents and lawful title-transfer process; registration is completed under your state's requirements. Installment options depend on an available lender, eligibility and approval. Rates, term, total finance cost and any lien are disclosed before you commit; approval is not guaranteed.

Every listing has a vehicle-specific enquiry or reservation option. Availability is confirmed individually. Sold, delisted and unpriced vehicles require a sourcing request or written quote before a deposit can be accepted.

THE DETAILS

About this vehicle

Over here these days, Toyota pickup trucks are typically the Tacoma or the Tundra. But in much of the rest of the world, the Toyota Hilux reigns supreme. Produced since March 1968, the Hilux was actually sold as the Toyota Pickup in the United States between 1972 and 1995, when it was a compact pickup truck. Now, it’s a mid-size pickup truck and has always used a body-on-frame construction method. The Hilux is famous for being exceptionally tough, and basically unkillable. Jeremy Clarkson tried to kill one on Top Gear and failed; even with a bent frame and myriad damage, the truck could still move under its own power. Today, we have a 1978 Toyota Hilux RN28L for sale from Fremont, California, with over 70,000 miles on the clock.
