Trouble is that the Toyota Pick-ups you guys get in the US have had IFS for made years now so if you go that route, you're likely looking at vehicle that's been well used and possibly abused..

To be honest, I am not sure that IFS is really a deal killer in a pick-up as their off road ability is already somewhat compromised by their (relatively) poor approach, departure and ramp-over angles..
