It was a bit humid at the welding seam, not leaking!



The truck is in Puerto Vallarta/Mexico. This is a popular tourist spot for Canadians and US Americans.
See Your Own Personal Sunset at Puerto Vallarta | Official Tourism Guide

There are flights from all mayor cities in Canada and the US to Puerto Vallarta.

I sell the truck because we actually nearly don’t use it anymore (no time).
And it’s a shame to go only shopping to Walmart and not on an adventure with THIS truck.

I am asking 29.999 USD

If you are interested send me a message or an e-mail to
cruisertravel(at)gmail.com

We could arrange as well (video) phone calls with Skype or Whatsapp

Living proof that 3B's will get you everywhere and you don't have to spend a 100K to be a real overlander !

Good luck with the sale this looks like a very well build Cruiser.
 
Hello again


Some info about the 3 B Engine for those who are not familiar with this motor.

This is a nearly unbreakable engine with a spur gear system and has no timing belt like the 1 HZ engine. This means less maintenance and less risk of damage to the engine.
This particular motor with turbo and intercooler has more power than a 1 HZ. We tested it when we drove into the higher mountains (over 10.000 ft) with my car and a friend’s HZJ 79 with a cabin with similar or less weight. The BJ 75 with turbo could pass the HZJ without problems going uphill and was “smoking” less black smoke then the 1 HZ without a turbo.


Fuel consumption is between 17 MPG – 23 MPG.
Depends how and where you drive. On or off road, altitude.

I hope this info is helpful.

Please feel free to ask if you have any further questions.

Thank you
 
I like to mention that if you hesitate to buy a truck, which is in Mexico, that it’s possible to deliver the car to the US (border area) after prior agreement.

I would also install some new rear tires.

And it’s possible to repaint the truck here in Puerto Vallarta after prior agreement.

Thank you

This means you could come and see and buy the truck and I can drive with you to the border if you don't want to do it alone...
You could combine a nice holiday with buying a special truck...

We have here a motorcycle touring and rental business and we are no scammers :)
