Hi Guys! Hope you are doing fine!
So I came across this article:
And I got very excited about building myself family overlander.
Here in Canada we don't have many options for double cab 4x4 and I figured I have to look into JDM
From what I can see my best choice will be ex firetruck. Low kms and not overpriced in general...the question is why they go for so cheap compared to civil trucks of the same kind.
Im not sure what truck will be best base truck for my purpose, my knowledge on the topic is very limited.
I have seen some ex fire trucks online that are double cab ( with like high cab, more headroom), 4WD. They were Toyota Dyna, Isuzu ELF, Nisan Atlas, Mitsubishi Canter. From these 4 which one will be more desired? And if we come down to specific model, what year, engine, chassis?
So I came across this article:
