Hello all! Am back RV'ing again, now in a classic 84 Toyota Dolphin; found it with 45,000 miles, stick shift. Goes about 25 MPH in 2nd gear up the passes on the big hills!

Those are great little units. One issue I'd worry about is lack of parts. Anything that old is REALLY scarce in junkyards as very few keep older stuff around long anymore. Even simple parts, while still available are no longer kept on the shelf in many parts houses.
In 1984, the Toyota Pickup truck was without question, the most popular small pickup truck in the US, bar none. (probably around the world too) Finding parts, both new and used shouldn't be a problem for the foreseeable future. If you gotta have an older small truck, that would be my choice. That platform would even be a good candidate for a 4wd conversion. Just don't plan on carrying much or towing anything.

agreed on 80's Toyos. nope, gonna leave this unit as-is. for the $8K we spent on it, and the condition, not gonna mess with it.
