First Drive: 2022 Toyota Hilux GR Sport
Being a petite-sized Asian means that I rarely get behind the wheel of vehicles the size of pick-ups. In fact, I’ve probably only driven less than a handful. It was, therefore, a bit thrilling to take one of the most iconic pick-up models in the Philippines on a 60-kilometer road trip. Beyond that sense of personal accomplishment though, does the Hilux live up to the expectation, even in the new GR Sport guise, that it’s drivable by every kind of motorist?
