This Is Why Everyone Loves The First-Gen Toyota 4Runner The Most
This Is Why Everyone Loves The First-Gen Toyota 4Runner The Most-July 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:23

The most recent generation of Toyota 4Runner was, as puts it, "a rolling supermarket where kids cough on all the produce." But it wasn't always that way.

The first-generation 4Runner was, and is, one of the best off-roading vehicles ever made, a tough-as-nails, no-frills truck built for climbing, off roading, and other assorted acts of truckery. It was destined to take Moab by storm.

The latest RCR video centers on a modified 1986 4Runner owned by a real off-roading enthusiast. Not only that, it's the video that converts Mr. Regular to the Church of Rock Climbing.

What a great truck.

Taking the paths you choose, learning to work with the car as a family, and discovering the Southwest off-road in the 1950s before people really did that. That’s what makes this Willys Jeep CJ so special to Larry Shank. Shank’s father worked on radars and jets at Lockheed after the...

The Jeep Shortcut Is The Best Damn Retro Wrangler Custom Around
The Jeep Shortcut Is The Best Damn Retro Wrangler Custom Around
The Jeep Shortcut Concept is basically a current Wrangler with the front and rear overhangs chopped off and some added off-road hardware, but made to look like that stemmed from World War II. It’s cute, but it definitely looks like it could kick butt off-road. “Why did they call this...

The Jeep FC 150 Concept Is The Forward Control Wrangler Truck Of Your Dreams
What happens when you take perhaps the best Jeep engine of all time, the AMC 4-liter, and plop it under perhaps the sexiest Jeep body of all time, the FC pickup? Answer: borderline perfection. The Jeep FC 150 Heritage concept is a stock 1960 FC-150 body sitting atop a 2005...
