Although, new Broncos like sexy too! If that is an option and I heard they are coming up with V8 Jeep too! lol....

1st Gen Tacoma... You could just swap your 3rds. Your mid travel LCAs, and UCAs would swap. Your coilovers would swap....

Just sayin

 

I've thought about a trailer too. Easy trails, load that bitch up and let it carry the weight. Harder trails, either set up a base camp or just go solo and leave the weight at home.
Wouldn't be a bad option but I don't have anywhere to keep it, or the resources to build it since I'd want to, from scratch.

Thought about this too, or a first gen tundra to get some V8 in my life.
Only problem is there isn't much more space inside the cab. It would be nice to have one with a Vagabond and full bed build...

 

Yes and no, I'll be patient on buying something. If I decided to do an 80 series, I would part the 4Runner out but not necessarily to fund the 80. More to either keep it or sell it stock and get the most money.

If I did an 80, I'd hope to find a triple locked one. That way I can start wheeling it right away. The lift, armor, etc. would come afterwards but a fully locked one would be plenty capable for the time being.

 

Here we go...Mojjara Frita!

 

I kinda wish I'd gotten a 1st gen Tundra from time to time. I love my 1st gen Tacoma but the v8 and space would be nice too.

 

I'm still on the hunt for a v8 as well.

My dream is a 1kz turbo diesel in my truck with a veggie oil burning system.
I can get used fryer oil from work. Start and stop the truck on diesel, once it's warm switch to fryer oil and drive around on that. Free fuel.
There's a place in Bend, OR that'll do the swap for $24K.
Assuming the diesel motor get's around 25mpg with my camper it would take a around 10 years to break even at the rate I drive my truck.
Now, if I didn't have a daily driver it would take around 3.5 years to break even. That makes it realistic. Even at 20mpg it's pretty good. However, I don't think driving my truck everyday would be all that much fun.

The big challenge is getting it smog legal. I could buy some property in a non smog county and register it there. There are other reasons to buy some property somewhere else in CA beside this.

 

Lol...no kidding.

I have friends in Salt Lake City....and from the several times I've been there I like it. Plus I've spent around 13 weeks rolling around southern Utah and love it.

If I could transfer my job there I would. But they also have smog in SLC. Their air quality is shit.

 

Come get mine!

 

Long term option is register in South Dakota and go live on a beach in my truck in Baja.

 

Forgot about that!
