2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road w/ Alu-Cab Canopy Camper :: Featured Classified

Toyota Tacoma

The Tacoma continues to dominate the midsize segment and remains the most popular truck on our forum. It’s a proven platform depended on for serious overland trips and was the pickup of choice for publisher Scott Brady’s Arctic Ocean Expedition. He states, “The Tacoma has been the benchmark of compact overland trucks since its introduction, and the model represents 62 percent of all trucks reported in our reader surveys. Overland Journal has owned a Gen 1 and Gen 3, and we have driven Tacomas from the Arctic Ocean to the Darién Gap in Panama.” With this in mind, cue today’s 2019 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road DCLB (93,000 miles), which showcases a wide array of top-tier modifications and is topped with a well-appointed Alu-Cab Canopy Camper. This is a pinnacle build with everything you need and nothing extra and would be the perfect turnkey rig to explore the US and beyond in 2025. If you’d like to learn more about the benefits of the venerable Taco for travel, listen to Ashley Giordano’s interview with Bound for Nowhere on the Overland Journal podcast or check out the adventures of Drew Simms, Rogue Wanderers, and Expedition Overland.

From the Seller:

“This truck has been an incredible adventure vehicle, thoughtfully built to handle the added weight while maintaining excellent performance and reliability. It’s been well maintained and is ready for any journey. With 13 gallons of onboard water and a Dickinson heater, you can stay off-grid for days on end. In my opinion, the Alu-Cab Canopy Camper is the best quality camper on the market. With the removal of the tailgate and a full seal around the camper, it is completely dust and air-free—the closest you’ll get to a slide-in camper solution. This, combined with the Tacoma, ensures you have a bulletproof setup to tackle any terrain or conditions. I’ve put a lot of time and effort into getting it just right and honestly been on the fence about selling but my kids are getting bigger, so I’m looking to shift to a full-size. Excited to see where the next owner will take it!”
