Car culture is often associated with celebrities in the media. Today, we have an intriguing review from Saheefa Jabbar Khattak, who shares her recent experience with her new acquisition of Toyota Hilux Rocco, a sleek black flat-bed truck she purchased to fulfill her childhood desire for classic American passion.
Decision to Buy
She opted for a 2022 Toyota Hilux Rocco with a 2.8-liter Turbo engine. Having previously owned models like the Civic, Haval H6 HEV, and Hyundai Tuscon, she still holds a fondness for their speed and performance.
Saheefa’s Experience with the Hilux
Her purchase of this “kaala daala” reflects her love for pick-up trucks. Raised in Oman, she never had the chance to experience the power and strength of a truck until now. While transitioning from a speedy car like the Haval, she finds the Hilux slower and less fuel efficient. Despite its shortcomings in comfort and design, she appreciates its power and ruggedness, making it ideal for rough terrains.
Planned Upgrades
In the future, she plans to customize the brake calipers, repaint the truck in a striking color, enhance the seat cushioning, and upgrade the head unit. However, she misses having a sunroof in this model.
Price and Conclusion
Saheefa purchased the Hilux Rocco for 14 to 16 million rupees. Despite its limitations, she considers it a reliable choice for adventurous road trips.
