There's no Great Evil conspiracy against consumers within engineering, manufacturing and supply. Just the many tradeoffs incurred to satisfy diverse tastes, priorities and wallets. But first comes all the insatiable Gummint eggsperts, nanny-staters and usual suspects.

I saw a report that the Hilux is prized in under developed countries as a vehicle of war.

Every truck you see with a machine gun mounted is a Hilux...

The report indicates that most of the stolen hiluxs are shipped OS....

I lock mine and keep it insured.

As my Dad used to say. " A lock only keeps out an honest thief"...
