This might be the last we see of the NSR HiLux. While she proved to be worthy of some of the most difficult terrain known to man, it seems she finally met her match. A vehicle known in Nicaragua for it's ruggedness and durability was brought to a grinding halt today (yes, literally). It seems that a combination of slight neglect and a faulty oil light proved to be a deadly combination for the small diesel motor. Six fresh quarts of oil failed to remedy the god-awful sounds that bellowed under the hood. Luckily we were able to limp back to the mechanic under our own power (which is way better than being stuck out in the middle of nowhere). After a solid 24 months of service, the motor is shot and needs to be replaced. Ouch. Fix or Replace? That is what we must decide. It's an emotional time, but we must move on.
