At first I thought it had been a Mazda B2200 but on second look, I think it's a t4. 4 bolt tires, fuel cap in the right spot, front fender and roof lines look like a t4, and so does the front corner lens.

here's the pic, in case the article disappears one day.

sure looks like one. it has that raised roof line, what we can see of the dash looks correct for a T4wd.

it appears to be a 4wd, that fool does not know the transmission alone is worth more than everything else combined.

The story this comes from only identifies it as a truck. they said they took the "truck" off the road "permanently". some lucky wrecker got it, and will unfortunately likely crush it.

Gee, they should have dropped it off at my place. I could use it on the property. That's nearby, but I've never seen it.
