I don't see that happening, figure it would be a different motor designed from the get-go for the North American market and our current/future emissions considerations.
Though I wonder if DieselToyz ever actually did that 4.5L conversion they were planning? I heard they had the motor, but I...

No 'technical' trails, pretty much SoCal mountain dirt road stuff, but it seems like there's finally some stiff competition for the Tacoma as far as the new Colorado being a good starting point for a camping/overland vehicle.
Will be nice to see this segment of the truck market finally get some...
Awning suggestion - INNO awning weighs 17lbs, measures something like 50"Lx5.5"Dia when stowed and unrolls/unfolds to 13'x10'.

Since he learned how to post on forums, lol.
He is right, though. And it's not like they're getting anything special under the hood, just the same 4.0L V6 we already have in the 4Runner, FJC, and Tacoma.
Yeah, I'd like to see a 70-Series sold here, but I'm more interested having other engine...
Depending on your length requirement you might try looking at some rifle cases. You could probably find some used ones on eBay or CraigsList.
From the 'Narrow Roof Box' thread last year...
You never said what size you're looking at, so I'll assume it's either the stock 265/70-17 or the common 285/70-17 (approx 33") upsize replacement.
Unless you're bashing the sidewalls I'd try to stick with a C or D Load tire on that 5th-Gen 4Runner.
Honestly though, the biggest hit to your MPG...
I also have a white one that I got when they were just $35 at http://sport.woot.com/offers/engel-30-quart-cooler-dry-box.
I generally use frozen bottles of water and/or blue ice packs to keep things chilled for a day. For an afternoon or day trip it works great.
If we're going to be out all...

Wow. Not to get OT, but that reminds of when we picked up my buddy's M101A3 that was still so unused it had the rubber feelers still on the center tread blocks, and an invoice zip-tied to one of the parking brake handles.
The invoice/packing list as for 10) M101A3s at a total of something like...

"The story begins with a letter to Santa in 1972. A boy in Philadelphia wanted a houseboat. He did not get one. But a fascination with small environments began. These spaces, where the rituals of daily life feel more...
Wow. Even considering the 2.5gal greater capacity of the 100-Series that's a pretty huge difference over a long trip, especially with a couple of 20L cans in reserve!
Wish my FJC had that 4Runner's 4gal larger fuel tank, lol.
If you look closely that price is for the optional extension panel only, and not the full vehicle awning. They definitely need to make that more obvious on that website.
That looks great! Beyond the simple water storage that smaller 9"x9"x6" 3.5gal WaterBrick could allowed to freeze (with the cap off) and then used as a replacement for block ice in a larger cooler.
Liking the tan option, too.
