My dad owned one, and you could get these before Toyota offered the 4 door Hiluxes to the US. It was actually pretty cool, had a full backseat, and a regular sized truck bed. He bought it brand new in 1986 and had it until about 1998. I still see it around town periodically. The lifted 4wd versions look pretty cool, IMHO.

maybe a Trekker-pre 4Runner years
from your description I was picturing the "Trekker" which spawned the 4Runner, it had a bench back seat and a truck bed, but only a 2 door like the pickups....but I have been wrong before....

Naw, I'm pretty sure he saw the Custom Cab. That description sounds identical to my dad's old truck.

As I recall, it made it a little nicer for my sister and I on long road trips. Of course, I only allowed her on approximately 1/3 of the seat... (I was kind of a jerky big brother... )
