Matchbox has a 4 Runner of the years you are looking for. Maybe you can modifiy that into a pickup. Jada just re-released the Tundra with oversized tires. Ebay has some of each listed for sale.

How hard do you guys think it would be to modify one of the Hot Wheels Off Road Race trucks to get what looks like a normal truck?

But yet the F-series is the top selling pickup and Ford sells trucks throughout the rest of the world too....just saying, and if a diesel pickup gets stuck in mud more than likely a Tacoma or Tundra would too, haha. And with Yota parts being hard to get right now and exepnsive Ill keep my Ford. Sean The little Toyotas (stock) will go through a lot more then a stock F-150 will. Just did 130 miles of towing this weekend. A Tundra or 1500 Silverado would have towed my trailer every bit as good as the diesel did. |

It is a nice truck, but we don't have a use for it since we put the hitch on the combine. I've been using it to pull my race car with. My dad's Chevy 1500 with a 5.3L could just as easily do that job. |

Do I care? Absolutely not. Sure, the Cummins can get me to the track while pulling down a few mpg better at 60mph, but the 5.3L pulls the trailer just as good at 60mph and can get me there just as fast. My 6.6 duramax outpulls our 6.0 gas's any and everyday.... Trey Thats nice, not all of us need a Duramax to drive back and for to the store with. A little Ranger (or take your pick of small truck) is a much more practical truck for many farmers out their then any diesel could dream of being. I'll stick with my moped to get back and forth to the farm with. It was more then $40,000 less then your truck and sips fuel. |

My 7.3 doesnt do any worse on fuel than a Ranger...just sayin. Also where you live, you must not have hills, its the hills that gets alot of trucks towing, not flat ground, lol.
