Overland Classifieds :: 2018 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road w/ Alu-Cab Canopy Camper

The Tacoma is without doubt the most popular truck on our forum with recent adventure-ready examples including this 2009 TRD Pro w/ Super Pacific X1 Wedge, a 2013 TRD Off-Road w/ Custom Camper, and a 2011 TRD Off-Road w/ GFC V2. This desirable Toyota truck has been a hit since it was first introduced to the U.S. market in 1995 as a replacement for the legendary Hilux. These are big shoes to fill, but the Tacoma rose to the challenge by continuing much of the Hilux’s rugged workhorse dependability and legendary capability while introducing an altogether more refined driver experience. It was a winning formula ensuring the Tacoma had gone from strength to strength, especially with Toyota’s introduction of SR5, TRD Off-Road, and TRD Pro packages to further enhance capability. This immense popularity has also incentivized companies to produce a vast array of parts and accessories to further uprate the Tacoma and fully equip it for the road less traveled. Today’s example is one of the most heavily modified to date, featuring the desirable TRD Off-Road package, extensive premium modifications and accessories, and an Alu-Cab Canopy Camper. 

From the Seller:

Up for sale is my Tacoma, my adventure rig, and quite honestly what’s been my baby for some years now. Very bittersweet to be selling, but life happens and sometimes you gotta make big-boy decisions. Please ask if you have any questions or would like any additional information or photos. Thanks so much for looking!”
