Hello All!
I'm new to the overland community but not the budget friendly camping/wheeling rig community. As my family continues to grow (15 month old, another on the way) I am looking for a light duty overland vehicle for weekend wheeling and camping. This will not be my daily driver. I love the fj80's but most seem out of my price range (overpriced?). I am looking to spend about $7000 on the vehicle and build over time. Low mileage is a plus as I have some mechanical skills but I'm not doing any engine swaps. I'm considering T100's, older Tundra's, a double cab tacoma(out of my price range but I can dream), LC's, Montero's, etc. Please pass on any recommendations, experiences, thoughts...
Thanks!
