Explain why, if they are so much better than the Taco and Tundra, we can get the latter here in the US without paying the Chicken Tax?

Toyota manufacturers those trucks in the US. They could manufacture the Hilux here too, but they choose not to. So it seems like the Chicken Tax isn't the actual problem. Toyota seems to think Americans do not want the Hilux, at least not in sufficient quantities to justify bringing it to market.

Correction: they think they can make more money selling the Tacoma and not the Hilux.

That’s not the same thing at all.
