    Default Toyota truck still there?



    Is the Toyota fj truck still parked near the loading area for the grizzly river run? If so it will throw off the theme of being in the 1950's as the truck is from the mid 1960's. I wonder if DCA will sell it.. I'd like to have it. It is super rare as the US didn't sell these. It would have had to be imported from Japan. It is very sought after by Toyota FJ purists.





    thanks,

    Awesome thanks. If they are truly going for an authentic period look for that area.. the truck would have to go..

    Put an old 55 ford f100 or something there instead.

    Maybe you should try to see if someone who does regular photo updates can see if it's still there? I know I've read for specific photos on some blogs and such that people requested. Worth a shot!

    Interesting. Maybe prepping it to move? I hope they put an old truck (1957 or older) maybe something like this:

    Chances are it's part of the retheme of Grizzly River Rapids to a more "national parks" theme over the "extreme sports" theme it once had.

    I agree. But the truck isnt era appropriate. Thats a late 60's toyota i think. Maybe one of the old stretched tourist shuttles would be neat or an old hudson or chevy/ford sedan posing as a ranger's vehicle would be awesome. would definitely set the scene.
