Overland Classifieds :: 2016 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro

Toyota 4runner TRD Pro backcountry

The Toyota 4Runner is a respected platform for overlanding with the TRD Pro variant being considered by many as the crème of the crop. This package uprates this already capable 4WD with a locking rear differential, skid plates, Bilstein shocks, Crawl Control, and more. In short, it’s a vehicle that from the factory is overland-ready and could be driven off the forecourt and around the world (not to mention it’s a great daily driver). However, if you did want to make further upgrades then this model enjoys access to a wide array of aftermarket parts, accessories, and services that further optimize the 4Runner for off-grid adventures. Consequently, it’s popular on our forum with recent examples including this 2014 SR5, a 2003 Sr5, and a 2010 Trail Edition. There’s no shortage of videos demonstrating the Pro’s backcountry prowess, including field tests from The Fast Lane Car and Driving Sports TV. Today’s 2016 example has covered just 57,000 miles and features premium modifications and a Alu-Cab Expedition Gen 3.1 rooftop tent.

From the Seller:

I’ve invested a lot into it in the past year as this was our dream rig. An addition to the family has prompted us to move to a larger platform. This is a seriously clean 4Runner with several high-end components that are very lightly used. The Trek Boxx, rooftop tent, awning, fridge, etc. have only a few weekend trips on them.”
