So I am looking for a platform to build a camper on the back of and am entertaining the idea of building on a Japanese heavy truck platform.
I do not know where to start this search for information so I figured I would employ my friends at ExPo for info.
I am needing a 4-5 seater truck that has 4WD and is ideally a gas-burner but that's not a must-have. Diesel would suffice if need be.
Does this truck exist and how are they for parts, reliability, turning a wrench to fix, etc? What makes/models do I even need to be searching for here in the USA?
In the attached picture from a build down under, I would like to know how to lift similar to this and what tires/sizes this may be.
Thank you in advance for any info!
