4WD?

Are there any 4 wheel drive Toyotas? If so, ones that are like the wagons
and can get maybe 30 MPG? Reliable?

I'm thinking of this in terms of my deliveries. If I had a reliable 4WD I
could deliver things in snow, that other people couldn't.

You know those old commercials where they showed a pickup driving over
railroad ties with a glass of water on the dash? Does that require a
special suspension? That's the kind of thing I'd need, to be able to do
deliveries over snowy streets, without getting my guts rattled loose.

You can check out the Toyota website for their model line-up.

I don't know the first thing about new cars. We're still driving the 93
Corolla. :)

Do they have 4WD cars or just SUV's for example?

Anything 4WD for under $20k new?

We'd probably look for something 3 yrs old anyway, with low mileage, to
save money that way.

Try looking for something like a Caldina, it started out as a 4WD wagon
version of the carona in 1997 and they still make it.

It comes with varous motors from 1.6L 4cyl to 2L diesel to 2L turbo out of
the GT4/All Trac.

As far as i'm aware the are still being made.

with the exception of VW's and a few benz's the only diesel options are
huge 6litre i6 engines or 7.3l v8's.

Re: 4WD?

I have given up on what car is in what market, I just work off what we can
get in OZ, and 90% of our cars come from somewhere else and are called
something else over there.

Sorry if I lead anyone up the wrong path.

It's OK. It's too bad we DON'T get the Caldina here!

You guys get a LOT more of Japan's output there than we get here.
Unfortunately...

All the 4WD's seem to be under RV's, I don't see anything like the
Corolla wagon in 4WD under cars. In fact I don't see Corolla wagons at
all, at their site. Don't they make them anymore?

I bet I could still get some money for this '93, it's sweet.

Coming a bit late to the feast, as I don't really follow this 4WD
game, but isn't the Lexus (a Toyota, after all) R330 a 4WD? (And
a hybrid to boot, yay!) Or is that a tad glamorous for the job?

If you are in the U.S., go to [url]www.toyota.com[/url] and look at the Matrix under
cars. The Matrix is available in AWD, (all wheel drive) which is full-time
four wheel drive.
