Over the last decade, I’ve traveled extensively in my 1986 Volkswagen Syncro but a significant chunk of that time was spent wrenching or sitting in a garage waiting for a devastating invoice. As much as I love my van, I concede that it’s robbed me of experiences, and with every year that passes, that becomes a harder pill to swallow. Time is our most valuable currency, and with this in mind, choosing a dependable platform that’s fit for purpose is key. Toyota 4WDs and trucks are widely accepted as the ultimate travel companions with the full-size Tundra being no exception. The third generation carries forward its predecessors’ workhorse credentials while introducing the latest refinement, enhanced capability, and a more efficient motor. Crucially, it shares a chassis and engine with the 300-Series Land Cruiser, aka a pinnacle overland platform. The frame is fully boxed and precision reinforced which improves strength and reduces weight, while also enabling the conversion from a leaf suspension to a five-link coil-spring system. It was for these reasons and more that it featured in our Overland Full-Size Truck of the Year with Publisher Scott Brady stating: “For light-duty full-size trucks, the Tundra remains the quality, durability, and reliability (QDR) champion.” In short, if you’re looking for a full-size pickup to explore both at home and abroad then you can count on the Tundra to make your dreams a reality. Cue today’s low-mileage (18,951 miles) 2022 Toyota Tundra 1794 Edition, which showcases a plethora of factory options, premium aftermarket upgrades, and is topped with a well-equipped Alu-Cab Alu-Cabin.
From the Seller:
“Virtually no expenses were spared on this build. Equipped with an Alu-Cab and numerous high-end modifications, this truck stands out as one of the best builds among 3rd-gen Tundras (I’m biased, I know). While it has been lovingly used for its intended purpose and shows signs of use, the truck remains in very good shape. Minor exterior cosmetic imperfections are present, but nothing out of the ordinary for an overland build. The interior is in excellent condition, thanks to a ceramic coating applied to the leather from day one. Overall, the truck has been meticulously maintained and cared for. I’m asking $110,000. This price reflects the extensive investment, highlighted in the linked spec sheet, in building a high-quality, comfortable overland vehicle.”
