Vintage semi truck pulling a lighted car trailer with Plexiglas windows carrying Radwood-eligible rides.

Truck in mind:

Ford AeroMax L9000:

I mean, look at it, it looks so...90s. Sleeper cab is mandatory, especially if you’re going to haul a bunch of rad rides across the country.

Peterbilt 372:

...and it’s predecessor, the 362:

Trailer:

Tommy Ivo-esque:

Yes, Tommy drove the hauler with a ‘68 Vette on top and his dragster(s) lighted up inside.

M2 Machines car hauler style except longer to store at least two cars inside:

Vehicle selection:

1988 Nissan Desert Runner:

1991 Chevorlet S-10 4x4 Baja (in either black or white):

Ford Ranger Splash in Bay Watch guise:

Eunos Roadster M2-1006, the “ CobraSter” recreation:

By far the wildest Tachibana creation was the M2-1006 “CobraSter”, as it was referred to by Mazda’s insiders. This was the Mazda version of the infamous Shelby Cobra of the Sixties, fitted with the Mazda 929's Quad-Camshaft, 24-Valve V6 under the hood. The rear subframe was ditched and instead M2 Engineers used the rear subframe and suspension from the Mazda RX-7 for added strength. The front tires were 225/50-16's, and the tucked under the bulging rear fenders they used 245/45-16's tires.

Total cost:

All my organs, all the money in my bank account, and my life.

Value: Totally worth it, dude.

Those Baja’s are hard to fine.

I too have dreams of owning a Dekotora.

I’ve seen only one and it was rusted beyond repair in someone’s back yard.

That would also be hilariously awesome to pull into Radwood with. The one in the Initial D movie was pretty sweet carrying the badass EVO III.

Used to drive a ‘91 Aeromax in the early 90’s...I concur with this decision...

I’m stealing this from the Mercedes museum in Stuttgart, then I’ll be right over:

Cars: 83 500SEC, 85 380SEL, 85 230E, and 85 280CE.

Sadly I didn’t write down what the truck was, but it’s a period Mercedes as well.
