Say Hello to Kenny Rogers (aka. Our Toyota 4Runner)!

Located and Squamish BC CANADA
$16500 CAD

305,000 and going up slowly

3rd gen limited with e locker



This fully-equipped overlanding vehicle is perfect for those looking to get off the beaten path and explore the very best of the backcountry. It’s fully equipped for days off grid Making it ideal for those wanting to get off-road, hike into the backcountry or sleep on route.

Interior Description:

At first glance, it may look like he’s just another vehicle – wrong!

The rooftop tent is ready for all your epic rooftop dreams! This means you can camp and sleep anywhere you find a cool place, without having to find a flat surface for pitching a regular tent ( He has a custom bumper which is equipped with extra water, fuel, a 5lb propane tank and a drop down cooking surface which fits your very own camp stove The tailgate is equipped with pot lights (no more one-pot mystery meals in the dark) and the interior of the vehicle has LED strip lighting with its very own dimmer switch. Because cold beverages are essential in the hot backcountry, we have a 35L fridge to hold your food and beer (it also fits a bottle of wine; don't judge us for knowing this!) This fridge has its own temperature control, so it can also be turned into a freezer if you desire. The fridge is plugged into Kenny’s internal wiring system and runs off it’s very own battery. Even though the fridge and lights draw very little power, we don’t want to leave you stranded without a starter – which it why the battery that powers the fridge is NOT connected to the starter battery. Just in case, we even have a solar panel that is equipped to help you power everything else you may need … such as your phone charger or laptop. There is one 12V-110V inverter located in the front of the truck, with two additional USB chargers at the back.



In the interior of Kenny, we’ve got plenty of space for you to stay organized.

Behind the driver and passenger seats, all the way to the back of the tailgate, is a wooden platform which can store plenty of storage bins underneath for clothing or shoes. There are also strap down points on the top of the platform for any additional items you have.

The real #StorageGoals however are located in the back of Kenny in the form of 2 long, deep pull-out drawers. Located in Squamish. The real party trick this is Registered as an RV so insurance is super cheap! Needs nothing. Only selling due to Going traveling in our new vehicle.
