But from old memory: Hilux trucks are built amazingly and have awesome reliability. Real, authentic, Hilux trucks are thus valued by freedom fighters/terrorists in Afghanistan.

People associated the Maple Leaf with the quality of Hilux, to the point of at least one person getting a Maple Leaf tattoo to signify his quality.
