    APEX1 — All-Pro Offroad’s newest Expedition Tacoma Build

    All-Pro Off Road has built some pretty wild Toyotas over the last 20+ years, but Jon Bundrant’s next creation is sure to be his best and most advanced. Forged with the experience of multiple 4WD vehicle builds, championship rock crawling and trail proven products--Bundrant’s next project will encapsulate the ruggedness of backcountry adventure with the reliability of the Toyota 4WD Truck. The All-Pro Off-Road APex1 truck is a purpose built 4x4 vehicle designed to explore North America’s scenic and extreme terrain. From some of the gnarliest black diamond trails to scenic mountain ranges--Bundrant will hand build and modify this 2012 Toyota Tacoma to be able to handle a multitude of terrains.

    To make a true overland / expedition vehicle we had to keep the weight factor in mind so we designed an all-new Aluminum series line that will be available to purchase very soon.

    We started with the Aluminum Apex Series front bumper, IFS & Transmission Skid, and PackRack.

    Just the AC, no DC model? Maybe a 2000W generator might be better maybe? Not a lot of difference in size, weight, fuel consumption . . .
