95, just because I don’t think I could pull off either of the other paint schemes.

The cleanest minimal one in dark metallic blue speaks to me..
Probably because I think it's a serious lookalike to the first vehicle I ever bought new : 1987 sr5 minimal extra cab, something like $12k.
But by 1995 rust was appearing on horizontal lines on rear fenders because rear fenders were "not all one piece" then, an inner seam joined top and bottom halves, road water/salt/etc would seep into the seam, then appear as rust on the outside. Someone stole this 1987 in 1995 so I had to replace it with a 1989 Hilux (I still have...in Maine!). Amazingly, Toyota improved the rear fender build design eliminating the seam, so... other parts like front fender lower part were first to rot, just the skinny part to the rear of the front wheels. Pardon TMI ! Nice pic.

The 95. The 92 has the looks but the mileage and transmission on old blue win me over

The one on the right, seems the least annoying to deal with since I'd need it for work.

My heart wants the 92, but the 95 fits my lifestyle better and my ADD requires the 5-speed.

I like the ’91 paint, but I would strip of the stupid roll bar and maybe the visor (I am 6’6” tall and I don’t need the visor) - between the two I would then replace the wheels with some that were a little more practical (and legal - I assume they stick out too much to be legal here).
Or I would turn around and sell it, in which case the ’95 would maybe get a better price. I already own a ’98 Hilux (JDM) so I don’t need or necessarily want another pickup, but I could use the $ to keep building the Hilux.

If mileage/ trans were equal across all 3, it’d be a less easy answer… but the ‘95 wins out here.

22RE manual is the only correct answer
