WALL-E 2.0
After canceling our Pan American Highway plans in 2020 due to COVID-19, I sold the Hilux to my dad and purchased a 2005 Toyota Tundra. The plan with this truck was to build a vehicle that would be comfortable to drive daily but also be able to take on the Pan American Highway once borders re-open.
