Uncover the Ultimate Toyota Hilux Treasure: Rare Factory Bed Crane Option Discovered on Marketplace

The Toyota Hilux with a Crane: A Rare and Unique Find

Are you a fan of trucks? Then you’re probably familiar with the legendary Toyota Hilux, known for its indestructibility and versatility. But have you ever seen a Hilux with a crane? Yes, you read that right – a crane! Toyota offered this unusual option on some of its Hilux models, and we’re about to take a closer look at one such example.

A Rare Find

The Hilux we’re featuring today is a 1995 model, sold out of Closer, New Jersey, on Facebook Marketplace. With only 130,000 miles on the odometer, this right-hand-drive JDM truck is in excellent condition, with a clean New Jersey title. The seller has recently serviced the truck, including an oil change, and even applied anti-rust Fluid Film to the frame and undercarriage to prevent corrosion.

The Crane Option

So, why did Toyota add a crane option to the Hilux? According to a Toyota press release, the crane was designed for lifting sports gear, such as off-road motorbikes. But we’re sure you can think of many other creative ways to use this unique feature. The crane is mounted on the rear of the truck and has a supposed lift capacity of up to 450 kilograms (992 pounds). The seller also includes a detachable stabilizer bar to help you place the crane under the left rear fender.

A Rare Opportunity

This Hilux with a crane is a rare find, and the seller is asking for $22,000. While the truck didn’t sell at its initial price of $22,500, the seller is willing to negotiate. If you’re interested in this unique Hilux, don’t hesitate to reach out.
