1982 Toyota Pickup Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Performance is very unimpressive, but it is a tough, sturdy truck. I could easily haul a 1000 lb payload with decent performance, and it tackled winter roads with ease. It also had a sturdy frame that made for ideal off-roading and hauling. It looks fantastic, gets decent mileage, and it's a very fun truck to drive. Heads turn when you drive this rare truck, as only a few survive. It has a tendency to rust and the interior is cheap and plastic, but that is common for most 1980s cars. It isn't a particularly comfortable truck, with a rough ride and smallish interior, but it is a great workhorse.Jan 11, 2009

'Twas three years old when I bought it. I kept it for thirteen years. It had 206,000 miles on it when the engine died. Some months after I sold it to a salvage yard, I saw it around Lawrence, Kansas, obviously with a new engine in it. I hauled housing supplies, antiques, camping equipment, furniture...trash to the landfill...towed a couple of rental trailers, once over the Arkansas Ozarks.Jun 14, 2008
