2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4×4 w/ AT Overland Summit :: Featured Classified

As I drooled over today’s overland-equipped Tacoma, it suddenly struck me that despite seeing hundreds of third gens listed to our forum, I’ve not read about a single engine or transmission replacement. Needless to say, I’m not suggesting it never happens. Still, when you consider the sheer number of these vehicles in circulation and how many are excessively modified and overloaded, it’s a testament to the platform’s build quality. I’ve always loved the saying “be undeniable.” In other words, master your craft to such a degree that your credentials are indisputable, and I believe this to be true of the Tacoma. It represents almost 30 years of Toyota’s mission to carry forward the legacy of the bulletproof Hilux while introducing elevated refinement and everyday practicality. Today, the Tacoma is widely considered the midsize pickup by which all others are measured, a pinnacle overland vehicle, and is undoubtedly the most popular truck on our forum. Crucially, it’s a tool of freedom and allows its owners to simply point their compass and explore without hesitation. Cue today’s 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road (44,778 miles), which showcases a wide array of premium parts and accessories and is topped with a well-equipped AT Overland Summit camper. Crucially this configuration respects the limitations of the platform and wherever possible has been professionally uprated for the added weight of the camper.

From the Seller:

Up for sale is my 2018 Tacoma, built out for ‘overlanding.’ The truck has low miles and has always been reliable. Regularly maintained. This setup works very well for us with two adults, two kiddos, and two dogs. The Summit bed is for the adults and the Goose Gear sleeping platform down below is for the kiddos. We’ve done numerous local trips and also down to Baja, and we love this setup. Below, I will list all the upgrades I can think of off the top of my head and will include pictures. Please contact me with any questions or requests for further pictures or info and I’ll happily get back with you.”
