This buyer is the hero Jalopnik deserves in the “Which car should I buy” column series. It needs a follow up with the buyer in 6-8 months for sure.

Yes x 1,000,000. You want to become a market leader? Putting the 2.5 turbo in the AWD will make you the market leader.

Who gives a crap about modern safety standards and dealing with the never ending chain of repairs on a 3K beater when I can save money?!?! 

You’re not wrong to still be mad for this.

Holy bad comment batman! Peak car in conjunction with Uber, Tesla, raising prices on cars maaayyyyy have played a part here. Last time I checked, interest rates have been a great way to stabilizing the housing market which has been on a tear over the past few years. Trump has made just a feeew comments about the fed…

In my mind the value here is the lack of alternatives. I can’t think of any other true 4x4 camper with cab egress that comes even close to this. The Jeep Habitat is a comparable but at 5X+ the cost.

My prediction is this will become the greatest off-road RV platform off all time. Sportsmobile meets Winneabago. The only question is who is going to be the first to build the bolt on camper shell first and charge crazy dollars.

Somehow, I approve of this relationship. Worse couplings have been done.

No reason to wander outside the Toyota family. 4th Gen 4runners with the V8 can tow up to 7K lbs no problem. It can also pull double duty when you get the bug to tackle some of those Colorado 4x4 trails.

4th Gen 4Runners are a hidden gem in my book. Plenty of power, perfect size/utility, reliable, roll-down back window, and one small lift and tire upgrade away from an enormous amount of off-road fun. Imagine the kids squealing from the back seat “Dad is the fun parent!!!” while driving on a mountain trail to do some…

Jalopnik needs to offer this man a job immediately! He is clearly an entertainer in the written form and also has emotional connections to shit boxes.

This will always be the greatest concept in the history of concepts. Absolutely stunning car that I would happily sell body organs to own if they made it.

For the the best of both worlds it’s going to have to be a Chevy Astro Tiger by Provan. Hard to find but possible if you look hard enough.

You get all my ‘Recommends’ for the day good sir. Flex on!
