WME Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 With proper planing Winter camping is possible. I've camped at -15. 4WD is another story there were about 30 something 4WD Toys made and maybe 18 or so left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gulfstream Greg Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 The 4x4 machines are extremely hard to find. There were actually 3 for sale this year (rare to see), one of them being mine. Sold it a few months ago. There is one still for sale http://www.toyotamotorhome.org/classifieds...ng.php?view=591 You could actually go for several years without seeing one for sale. The link I just gave you is for a V6 model. The Sunraders I do not believe had any V6 models at all, only the 4 cyl 22r carburetor and fuel injected. There were also I believe 3 turbo 4 cyl produced, one of those was the one I sold. Another turbo seems to have had the turbo engine removed and the 3rd is believed to have been wrecked.

Yours was too well fixed up and you needed a project, something to do. C. You now have 5 kids and no longer fit in the 18'er. D. ?????????????????

I loved the 4x4 and turbo. We just took an overnighter with the grandson (6 yr old in 3 days) and having the extra room was really nice. I will have to say the V6 does not seem to have as much power as the 4 cyl turbo but then again the gulfstream is probably much heavier. We bought a fixer upper and WOW has it been a project. Starting to see the daylight though at the end of the tunnel. Got some minor projects to take care of but its trip ready now. So in a way the answer would be B, C and D.
