86 Pickup truck
https://www.carscoops.com/2018/12/na...-pickup-truck/
"Built on the latest Toyota 86, it’s body has been transformed to include a Lamborghini Urus-inspired design and a truck bed behind the front seats, which has been stretched out considerably so as to match the Lambo SUV front end aesthetic. Unlike a real Lamborghini Urus, this so-called ‘Super Sports Pickup Truck’ is powered by a modified version of the Toyota 86’s (and Subaru BRZ’s) 2.0-liter unit with 270 PS (266 HP) and 304 Nm (224 lb-ft) of torque at its disposal. It’s also fitted with a TRUST GReddy T517Z Turbo Kit. Of course, it pales in comparison to the Urus’ 4.0-liter twin turbocharged V8 engine, which produces 650 PS (641 HP) and 850 Nm (627 lb-ft) of torque." Making use of that tiny backseat area? |

Not anymore if you want new.
Our government got sick of bailing out GM-H. People got sick of poor build quality and poor reliability. The last SS rolled of the line more than a year ago. Ford Australia went the way of the Dodo due to similar circumstances. Sad in some ways, but we were flogging a dead horse with our economy.

I thought this was going to be about a 1986 Toyota Pickup.
I am sorely disappointed

It was a sad day when they went out of production (although I wasn't familiar with the build quality issues). I kept hoping GM would bring the UTE to the US, particularly the Redline. I would have signed up for one the day it went on sale.

Visit my Owner's Journal where I wax philosophic on all things FR-S Post your 86 or see others in front of a(n) (in)famous landmark. What fits in your 86? Show us the "Junk In Your Trunk". |
