Just might be a tad too funky and underdone in the lungs department for old Toyota tragics-

Load it up with decent solid running gear give it a steroid hit to make it full grown and it might be a seller .. Nothing wrong with using plastics / composites for body parts,  if done correctly ..

It sounds to me like a really good replacement for the Suzuki Jimny and Sierras before that rather than anything Toyota made, maybe even a series one Land Rover as that only had a 1.6 IIRC.

I see the boom box is removable and it runs Android Auto and Apple Carplay for the beautiful people off to ski at Thredbo for the weekend (the ice crystal is a nice touch) . The dual fold rear hatch is interesting but no good for a spare wheel mount. One thing that made me nostalgic for my L- Series Subaru wagon was the floor treatment-
'There’s no carpet anywhere in the cabin so it can be hosed clean'
http://www.caradvice.com.au/541399/toyota-ft-4x-concept-surfaces-ahead-of-new-york-debut/
Picked up some Sandgrabba mats for the new Challenger and I can't understand why makers don't offer that sort of complete floor treatment for fourbies instead of their useless car carpet and mats. Wakey wakey guys.

Australian millenials should note that while it won't climb Everest if you want to go to Joshua Tree for the weekend or camp at Yosemite it's ideal  :cup:
