1989 TOYOTA HIACE FIRE TRUCK
SOLD
Vehicle Description
Where do you even start with something this unbelievably cool? What you have here is a nearly brand new truck; late 80's industrial styling, seating for 6, ultra-reliable 2L diesel engine, go anywhere 4WD with high and low ranges, and a 5 speed to boot. Nothing even remotely close to this was ever offered for the US market -- shame on you Toyota. As a former Japanese fire truck this LH85 Hiace lived a very easy life. With an even 6,500 miles on the clock, this beauty was driven an average of under 200 miles per year! However, these fire trucks are always very well maintained throughout their life of service. Some tasteful upgrades such as the 2" lift and 30x9.5" BFG KO2s take it to the next level. Perfect for promotions, events, shows, a custom overland build, trucking around town, and anything else you can imagine. The only limitation is your imagination. It was imported in September 2022 and is offered for your consideration.
