I recall one other US-SPEC truck without a rear heater. It was originally sold in Hawaii. My bet is this may be the case with this truck. Non-cold-SPEC trucks will not have a rear heater or side defrosts. Standard-radio trucks will not have door speakers either.
This is a base, base US truck. Probably ordered by mistake by one of the private distributors since it has a very early build date.
It is 1,980 units prior to mine.
Seems amazing that it was registered in HI and the shows up in OR with such few miles four months later. Must have been an expensive trip.
That two compartment center console is normally not found with cloth seats. It must have been upgraded by one of the POs. Seems amazing that it was registered in HI and the shows up in OR with such few miles four months later. Must have been an expensive trip.
Maybe it was EXPERIMENTAL!Maybe something is wrong with the system, but when I search this VIN the the online TIS system, I get nearly no info back. No model year, grade, first registration, production date, etc. everything is blank. Doesn't let me see anything. I only have access for US, Canada and Mexico. I wonder if Hawaii was a different destination code?
According to your build code FZJ80L-GNPEKA, this is either for US or Europe destination..
But your VIN gives me nothing except it is a Land Cruiser.
Cdan for the win!
Hawiaii has its own distribution system separate from TMS. You will not find much information on it on the mainland.
This.
I believe they order directly from the mothership and bypass TMS, USA altogether.
Anybody have a random Toyota originally purchased in Hawaii I can check? This is curious for me. I have heard they have a different group they order from, but I'd like to see how other, newer vehicles compare
