i've heard Thai food spice level turns your butthole into a napalm dispenser. (specially after watching Mark Wiens enough)
FYI, $12,000 is about how much it costs to replace the emissions equipment on a new F250 diesel.
Especially you should come to visit nagaland North East India 🇮🇳 for more spicy food 🥵🥵🔥 King chili 🌶️
Where do I want to modify the contact?
With a name like BEER that drives a Harley and a badass toyota ...he's a man of culture for sure
Bro is obviously a fan of usa😂
the 6 wheel conversion looks perfect! i clicked the second i saw the video just wow! im impressed.
Same here
That truck is so cherry, I'd love to have one in the states. Thank you for covering this majestic creature.
Yup, same. I was close to getting a used Honda Ridgeline but kinda big and mpg still poo. That truck for $15k would be awesome.
I went to the dealership here in Thailand to look at it. Even unmodified it looks pretty cool and the price is just unbelievable. I'll probably get one.
100x better than the Cybertruck
Cybertruck is more Star Trek, this is more Aliens, or Galactica, or Last Starfighter. Betting the fit and finish is better on this too, with nowhere on it that tears shirts or cuts owners.
@@PiDsPagePrototypescybertruck looks like a refrigerator 😂
@@charliestoybox2099 One the doors don't shut properly on, going by the reports on fit and finish.
not very hard to achieve but true
Or any giant penis enlargement American trucks thats not being used for any work but to inflate fragile ego.
Imagine if USA had low cost work trucks like this, cheap street food, affordable rent, no worries about extreme liability, low barriers to entry to start a business and make money…. If USA had all that then it would have a great future ahead of it.
We could even name it, call it the American dream!
Bro it costs $200 to start your own LLC. You have internet. google it and do it
used to exist, was why our country was founded
that would be giving the werking class a bone. death core capitalists say: hell no, shut up git back to werk homies
The Zionist occupied government isn't interested in American welfare or prosperity. They serve the interests of their masters, full stop
I like the new format Chad. Happy to see some locals get camera time and be able to share their stories. Thanks for doing this!
The Truck is amazing & the owners modifications are a perfect example of what makes this truck so appealing. the ability to purchase a vehicle for a reasonable amount & have enough left over to customize it to your specific need is priceless.
Toyota Champ is a really cool vehicle especially the ones modified with bigger wheels and suspension.
This is reads like an AI comment 😂
This truck was just released in Thailand, and they have already modified it. Crazy!!
Still has his red numberplate, less than 2 months and bro has added an extra pair of wheels. I love Thailand the individuality in vehicles is unparalleled.
Its a work truck, Chevy and Ford used to sell those with plastic floors, roll up windows no radio/AM radio in the '80s for about $10K, you could hose out the interior.
Bring this to North America this shit will go crazy
Already been tried for a year heh.
There is more than 1 guy doing it for sure already but the import fees will double price, easily
Ford, GM and Chrysler will not let that happen. You crazy? They are shafting people with $80,000 f-150s.
Even Toyota don't want people in the US to know about these cheap pickups, they are selling Tundras for 80k and Tacomas for 50k.
Bro, you know very well that, if and only if, they bring this truck to the US, I will not be $12000. Add a zero....
@@EuroVrod This truck with some extras for 20k is a deal.
Illegal in the US. The government has been bought by the big 3.
Hey Toyota ! Bring this to the states.
i told them for a year... the prices are too high because of regulators etc
Chicken tax would never
i would buy one today
By the time they did that would cost 40k 😂
It would be illegal if they brought it to the US
As you know we love modify things even human, we just needed basic truck with lowest price. Then let our idea flourish to fit each other's preference and styles. 😁
That's what I like also about Thailand is the all the custom car and modified without the heavy restrictions or rules in other countries.
the reason they don't sell those trucks in america is because it would hurt gm, ford and dodge a lot and they are already having a hard time selling trucks right now.
that truck is a bargain. would love to see those in the Caribbean. the 6 wheel setup is👌🏾
Import tax
@@zeusapollo8688 alot of our 2nd hand pickups here in Barbados are imported directly from Thailand, only a matter of time before some of these turn up too...
@@briangriffith3985 we used to buy from Japan. I have never seen used cars that clean again
@@zeusapollo8688 the models from Japan and Thailand have better features than the ones from our local dealerships
Night you wouldn’t believe it. I was looking at the same thing but making it into a full-blown dragster caught up with the Petaya about a year and a half ago.
I start the build next year. I’ll send you photos of the progression.
I can't with the closed captions saying "sweaty cups" when you said sawadeekup 😂😂😂
This video starts wild. Turbo Diesel Toyota, 6 wheeled, driven and owned by a guy named Beer, who uses it for his Chili business and motorcycle.
Only Thailand will made work trucks sick af
Thank You 🙏🏻 for showing more details on this truck!!
pretty cool truck and the convertion to 6x6 was nicely done
It's probably a 6x4 or 6x2.
My first Muay Thai Kru was from Nakon! 😊
Hope to see more videos like this, where you talk to and test drive local's cars. And those red light vendors are cool. When they sell fresh donuts it's pure bliss! 👌👍
the 2gd ftv in this truck is fully complaint to euro 6 emissions , so it will easily pass american emission tests. the other engine options like 2tr-fe were sold in usa for many years in toyota tacoma and 4runner . they won't sell it in america because americans can afford to pay 50k 80k 120k for a truck while much of thai population can only afford 10k 20k truck.
Nah its due to taxes, called the Chicken Tax funny enough look it up
Msking parts all last year for many big brands(shorts) we talked about this truck a lot... but the import costs would make it a minitruck and those are not allowed in most urban areas, and cost 25k after import for even smaller usminitrucks
Toyota builds trucks in America, it’s not because of that.
Yeah that sucks. We need to end this form of protectionism. Maybe with more videos and talk of stuff like this, it'll get the people pissed off enough to do something about it. The economy is so hyper inflated ending the chicken tax could really help a lot of businesses and folks that need a cheap, light truck. I need a new truck but cannot possibly afford the insane prices.
@@13JimmA it is small trucks arent made in america for legal reasons
@@13JimmA US government regulators have been paid-off by the big 3, to the point that big V8 trucks are emissions-compliant while this 2.4 liter turbodiesel is not. That's why not even the Ford Ranger 4 cyl turbo diesel, which is a bit popular here in Asia, is not available in the US.
We got millions of unroadworthy vehicles running around and they claim this is about crash testing. Our gov is so uneducated lol
IT’s corruption not education.
I definitely agree with him about the cab. That truck would be awesome with a crew cab.
Great work truck for an awesome price. As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
I love that Toyota have built these great little trucks. These something really special about a really utilitarian vehicle. I imagine that there are going to be some amazing builds done with these as a basis
This modify so same as "1986 Nissan Big-M 6 wheels version pickup truck (D21)" but completed from factory and become a rare to find it.
I'm sure a Toyota Hilux Champ (IMV-0) can be anything from modification as mini-trailer truck, motorhome and special vehicle such as "jigsaw kit car"
Awesome CHAMP 🏆
That is so sick.... I want one!! One of the reason I want a Velociraptor 6x6
That boxy look will always be my favourite...
Thank you for coming to Thailand.😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
You could of bought at least one drink off the poor guy baking in the heat 🤣🤣🤣😝
Knowing Chad, he probably did (off cam).
I love those plastic interiors! They don't get damage!
The Suzuki Carry orders must have dried up with this diesel Toyota Champ.
It is not surprising that Suzuki is stopping to manufacture vehicles in Thailand.
Suzuki And Toyota Has Tie Up Now.
They Are Selling Each Other's Vehicle In India With Just Badge Change
I did not hear Suzuki was stopping production in thailand.what are they doing with their plant at BoWin?
It's just sweet you can see its genuinely a work truck for his business and a leisure truck for his bike. Not a pavement princess.
That's the Thai G wagon 6x6, if that was the camper version it would be sweet as though I still love it.
That truck is dope AF, damn son!
In the Philippines, they call this Toyota Hilux Tamaraw. Check them out.
That Harley is Badass
I think if it ever came to the US it would take a bunch of sales away from the tacoma and every other "mini trucks". I want one of these so bad.
It's also a Toyota, like the Tacoma. But this ain't legal in the US even if a US factory builds them. Though i bet this is legal in Mexico
@@sepg5084it should be even a Chinese car is legal in Mexico now I spotted some JAC and BYD here in us from Mexico
Awesome and outstanding truck.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
I'm into truck that much but When I saw this truck advertised in my area it's so fking cool and I want one for no reason
I love Thai people, Thai food, Chili and Beer (the owner) and the cold ones. Super cool custom Champ. I assume the trailing axle just there for load or is that driven by the engine somehow? I love the small diesel, the flat bet with fold down sides too. Curious how he loaded that big hog in the back. Thanks for that tour and in cab drive.
YES! Superb truck for the $$$. Great interview/video! thanks.
We do have MANY diesel vehicle brands available in America. We have Nissan, Toyota, Renault, Mitsibishis, among many others... It is the US that does now allow many of these brands to ve sold in The States.
That ride goes hard. Can’t wait to drive it in the states.
The car market is crap here plus super expensive so they'll never bring that little truck here. The dealers couldn't keep them in stock!!! Thanks for keeping the videos coming!!
Cool. Love it. The Truck. The modification he had done...and his Harley in the back mostly. Yeah...show us those local builds. I know you got the baller street cars covered...but what aboot the budget guy...what are they doing to their cars ?
Dammit it's cheap, it's gorgeous, it's cute at the same time, small, and it has the same engine as the good old bigger Hilux. Please toyota make this thing available in more countries
I was literally talking about champs to my wife last night. That one is awesome
12K unbelievable, that is one sick Toyota. Love it, its not in US or Canada because they know they can gouge the consumer.
In Indonesia, the price of the Hilux Rangga hasn't been released until now, but the thing I don't like about the Hilux Rangga is the absence of a headrest
I like how you did a u turn onto a 2 lane and a cybertruck would struggle to get a u turn done with 3 lanes
Mans built an excellent truck.
What we really need are Japanese bubble cab trucks like Canter, Dutro, Elf, and Atlas
I love that truck ! So awesome 👍👍
I Remember buying a Base Tacoma for $14,999 back in 2006 ...
Toyota needs to make the Back to Basic Truck for the US market
In Australia we get Hilux also made in Thailand, also with wheel on right, also 2WD, also with 2.4L diesel on workmate model. But almost twice the price ~US$24k without auto.
Yeah, we still get slugged with taxes meant to protect the now non-existent car manufacturing industry.
If I am ever moving to Thailand, this will probably be the number one reason why.
the markups for these would be insane in the States
even I'm not into mini-truck, but gotta say,, Chad is being Chad XD
being salty here because I've seen others stole your contents and spouting shit on a counch, while you're on here and do it for real
for the dog, may be he's chasing the ice cream cart in front of him ?
"basic" truck with 2.4 diesel and automatic transmission. This is a treasure.
That truck could be the frame of a sick cube van/tiny home!
I wish us North Americans could get this exact version. I'm diggin' the double axle rear.
Base model 2.0 petrol model is 13000USD. Diesel turbo is 20000USD.
Even if it cost $15k and met all US safety and emission standards, it would never sell here; dealers can't get you hooked for 84 months @ 9%, and it's not brodozer / 'influencer' cool. Very refreshing seeing this, as it reminds me more of how it used to be in the US - Pickups used as pickups, not vanity projection devices that used to be the cheapest new Toyota vehicle on the lot. I remember when a new Corolla cost more than a basic new Toyota truck.
Chad,you rock! That's one badass little truck for 12k. Keep the content coming. Peace ❤
Chad, you should try to link up with the Crown Prince of Johor, Malaysia. His car collection is insane.
I’m not even kidding if Toyota brought this to the United States I would trade in my $60,000 trail boss and buy this. Too many of us (myself included) use our trucks status symbols. I would love to get out of some debt with one of these and still be able to have the utility of a truck.
And we can't get little two door trucks because of some out of date law that encourages massive sedans with truck beds. I'd love to own this in diesel form but at this point I'd be happy with a NA gas 4 cyl.
Soon to be launched (and be built) again here in the Philippines as 'Tamaraw' (name after a native small buffalo). This will definitely sell here very well with variants ranging from gas and diesel engines as well as m/t and a/t options. And no, no 6-wheeler variant.
Love the topic. Trucks are a catastrophe in the US right now. I want to buy, but can’t afford. This truck is killer awesome!
Would love to see the undercarriage, specifically the added axle. Someone knows what they are doing.......
That thing looks like a beast!!! I'd daily drive the hell out of it in the Midwest!!! 🔥
we need this champ in America!
Hey Chad. Love you work. Cool truck. The closest experience to a 6 wheeler. Dual rear is a single real spooled differential. A full locked diff. Not a true trac or Detroit. A spool. Cheers mate 🙏
if you want this in LEFT HAND DRIVE, Toyota Philippines manufacture this Hilux Champ (Hilux Tamarraw) in their Toyota factory plant in sta rosa Laguna. I believe only Toyota PH made this truck in left hand drive
Lol, in pHiliplines this is called Toyota Tamaraw, it is made in Philippines by Filipinos
Oh it is coming and everyone will be buying one
I would love one of these. I need a truck for little things around the house and this would be great for that use. But I'm not gonna hold my breath for it to come to the US without a huge increase in cost.
Look up the Chicken Tax from 1964 and the UAW.
In the '80s, the government introduced a new law that made it harder to import new cars from abroad. Furthermore, in the '60s, a tax called the Chicken Tax added a 25% tax to light-duty trucks, which the Hilux was. To get around these laws, Toyota started making cars in the US, as that would avoid those regulations.
Ah man cool stuff indeed. Can't wait to see one in person.
I wanna see that chili grinder in action! I have to drive 2.5 hours to Nashville for descent Thai food. I’m looking forward to the feature videos btw. I like these kinds of videos! Are both rear axels driven?
The chances of you getting decent Thai food in Nashville is slim to none. 😂 what’s the name of the restaurant?
I never see like this in my country.
🤣
Toyota had a 1-ton dullay truck in the U,S, back in 1980s, they need to bring this vehicles to America!!!
Looks like a "tag" axle. Hope it has a lot of suspension travel so that when backing up in rough areas that the rears don't lift the drives off the ground. Saw that happen a lot in the farmlands in the US midwest back in the day. Be nice if it was s twin screw. Just my 2 cents. Other than that, love it.
Wow, what a deal for that truck. Wish we had that in the states!
I also with it came in double cab config
That truck is BAD AZZ !!
That 2.4 (2GD) engine is already potent with 150hp, 343nm (mt) and 400nm (at), very enough and sufficient already for that chassis. What more if they install their 2.8 (1GD) with 200hp and 500nm! 😎
I’ve never seen a Champ with an automatic transmission or adjustable steering wheel, I wonder if those were modified as well.
Nice cell phone cut-ins with the bear 🥳
LOL about the dog.
The dogs down in Mexico are no different. Kind of dangerous at night, as i've come across a few sleeping on the road, on a bend.
As an American.........it saddens me that we don't have this.😢
Smart Four Two: Ok
Toyota Champ/Hilux: No
Me: WTFN?!?
