2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road w/ Alu-Cab Canopy Camper :: Featured Classified

First introduced to the US market in 1995 as a replacement for the Hilux, the Tacoma faced the seemingly impossible task of living up to its predecessor. Yet, against all odds, it not only lived up to the Hilux’s legendary reputation but in many ways surpassed it. The Tacoma carried forward its forebear’s bulletproof build quality, reliability, and backcountry ability while introducing welcome refinements. The Tacoma remained a truck you could abuse on the worksite, but unlike the Hilux, it was better suited for highway miles and recreational usage. In recent years, it has become the midsize darling of the overlanding community and remains the truck by which all others are measured; it’s by far the most popular pickup on our forum. Faced with such a competitive midsize segment and so many legitimate alternatives, it’s perhaps hard to decipher at a glance just why the Tacoma continues to reign supreme. It’s a topic discussed by Bound for Nowhere with Ashley Giordano on the Overland Journal podcast. They explain that after years of problematic vehicles, they turned to the Tacoma, as it removed the anxiety of breakdowns and thus allowed them to fall back in love with adventure. Overlanding is, first and foremost, about experiences in the great outdoors with people you love, and to this end, the Tacoma is a pinnacle platform. Cue today’s low-mileage 2017 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road (55,600 miles), which showcases a broad array of top-tier parts and accessories and is topped with a well-appointed Alu-Cab Canopy camper. If you’re looking for a dialed overland-ready rig to hit the road with this summer and explore at home and abroad, look no further.

From the Seller:

“Great truck and camper combo that’s been a secondary vehicle (not a daily driver) for fishing/camping excursions. All major modifications were completed by the pros at OK4WD/Alu-Cab USA using top-quality parts. Regular service and maintenance completed by the local Toyota dealership and Fowlers Gulf in Princeton, an independent owner/operator mechanic with over 40 years of experience. A folder with receipts from the Toyota dealer and Fowlers Gulf will be provided. The vehicle is mechanically sound and runs great. Clean title in hand. I’m the original and only owner. I can provide Carfax for serious inquiries. I’m willing to work with the buyer on fly and drive (Philadelphia International Airport) or shipping (buyer handles logistics and all costs). I can also have the vehicle ready for pickup at OK4WD if you’re looking to get any additional items added.”
