If I had the cash, I'd love to run a Pinzgauer..

And it'll say STEYR on it.
Not anymore, they are now built in the UK under some agreement to supply the British Army..
Of course that means they probably leak oil like the Exxon Valdez and have electrics by Lucas, but they are still better than the various 1 tonne LandRovers ect they replaced...

I think a number of the Japanese/Chinese mini 4x4 vans are popular for off-road use here in the states, with decent capability. I never have messed with one, however.
Here's a website for them, and it shows prices for the used versions. They are somewhat cheaper than a typical new UTV.

Some online reviews of that taxi stand:"The restroom is nasty, wet and the whole place stinks like butthole." "People washing their feet in the restroom. Ish." "Always busy... Employees are friendly... Always tons of taxi drivers just standing around and getting in your way."

Not sure where I was. I try and stay totally obliterated the entire time I'm in MN. It makes it far more tolerable. Travis

Would love to try a new 5.7L Super Crew 4x4 if they didn't get such abysmal fuel mileage. Nice trucks though. We've had a couple of the earlier models with this same engine and got 15-16 hwy miles at best.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

I'd never need one, but I would like to see Toyota's version of a 1 ton diesel. Travis
I'd LOVE to see a diesel Hilux (aka Tacoma) in this country. I'd be tempted to buy two before they changed their minds.

Does toyota take trade-ins?
I've seen two come in the shop in that condition this year. To be fair, one had 450 000+km on it, not sure what the other had but it had definitely been used hard. Anything mechanical will wear out and needs periodic checking. Would love to have a nice Toyota, maybe someday I will.
