What is this thing?

 

[kolelt]

Bro that thing looks sick though.

 

[coleb10]

Strange. How does the front door open? Door handle is not in the usual location.

What is this thing?

One of 9 of Toyota's own SEMA show vehicles. It's a Sienna body, on a Tacoma frame and drivetrain.

All of the doors are rear-hinged too. Super cool!

 

[Hapkijo]

Lift, bigger tires, rack, CBI bumper front and rear with swing away and we are good to go.


That is sweeeet!

 

[azcat90]

Oh ok glad Toyota is not ruining the 4Runner like Nissan ruined the pathfinder.

 

[W3LCH]

Toyota Sienna! Now that's a minivan I'd consider driving.

It is true, Toyota did make that. It wouldn't surprise me if the new Siennas had more hp than our old school rigs. :crybaby:

I can pretty much guarantee they do, gotta keep those soccer moms on time!

Edit:

3.5 L 2GR-FE V6 (266 hp)
2.7 L 1AR-FE I4 (187 hp)
6-speed automatic


The 2GR is a badass little motor

^I agree & by no means am I dissing the 4th & 5th gens b/c those would probably be my next choice if the 3rd gens didn't exist but I do feel like they kinda lost the "coolness" factor, looks wise at least, that the 3rd gens have. I always thought the 4runners progressively got better looking with each passing generation but that stopped after the 3rd gen. To me the 4th & 5th gens are kinda like the slightly less attractive younger sisters? I'm hoping that won't be the case with the 6th gen.

hmm... I know I didn't pick up my 02 for its incredible hp but not sure how I'd feel getting punk'd out by a minivan off the line. prbly sting my ego a bit

You'd feel worse if that minivan beat you up a trail. We don't drive racecars man

 

[gamefreakgc]

Whoa, that's actually really awesome. I thought it was photoshop'd at first. I need to find a way to work for Toyota!

 

[SilverRidgeRunner1]

Yea I don't know what the deal is but apparently Toyota wanting to appeal to the expedition crowd. Any way it has with this but I kinda feel ground clearance is lacking and apparently this is sitting on a Tacoma TRD PRO series frame
