Will include basic camping set-up if purchased at full asking price (new 6-person tent, queen inflatable mattress, 2 camp chairs, collapsable table, 4 Front Runner overlanding/camping storage/transport boxes, awning & posts). Great beginning Overland setup for couple or small family.

Originally a California truck, it was built for overlanding in Maine before coming to me in March of '16. The previous owner (PO) bought it with 226k miles and it was in "excellent condition", "like it was from the factory". Original frame sticker and paint pen marks are visible. "Fluid Film" anti-rust treatment on entire underside including in the frame while in Maine (fought off all road/coastal salt), it's still on and doing it's doing well. Never went mudding, it has seen mud but I hate cleaning mud from under the truck, so no-thanks. The PO built ALL the armor and roof rack for it himself. The skid plate mounts to the new front cross member and can be removed without removing the bumper. The front bumper designed to sit as close to the truck as possible for extreme approach angles. Front bumper also has a 2" receiver and recovery points. The rear is extremely high clearance I trimmed part of the pinch weld to gain clearance. Recovery points and 2" receiver on the rear as well. Also designed it to be lifted with a high lift jack. Bolts to all factory frame holes. Sliders are 2" Dom square tubing with filler plates to keep the kicked up rocks off the paint. All the armor has been well thought out. The roof rack is a modular design and mounts to the factory rails. I get 17mpg at 80 mph on the highway with the rack installed. The PO did the major maintenance for the next 50-70k when I bought it ~14k miles ago. Whoever buys this truck will own a very reliable and capable family rig. I will be sad to see it go.

It has been my daily driver since Feb. 2016. I'm a late-40's, non-smoking, creative executive that works from home. I'd get in this rig tomorrow with my family and drive it to Alaska. I'm 100% confident in it's reliability.
