In honor of Oct. 21, 2015, the futuristic date noted in "Back to the Future Part II," Toyota recently decided to develop a modern-day version of Marty McFly's dream truck using the all-new 2016 Toyota Tacoma. Modified from the ground up, the Tacoma pays homage to the cult film and arrives just in time for the release of the "Back to the Future 30th Anniversary Trilogy," which is now on DVD and Blu-ray.
If you're a fan of the classic "Back to the Future" films, then you already know all about Marty McFly's dream truck: an all-black Toyota Hilux 4x4. Originally debuted in the first installment of the popular franchise, it quickly became one of the most memorable vehicles - aside from the futuristic DeLorean - in the series.
Toyota, being the fun-loving brand it is, recognized the impact their former model had on fans who cherished the trilogy from the mid '80s to early '90s and came up with the idea to recreate the famed truck. With the Hilux no longer in production, Toyota used a 2016 Tacoma instead, outfitting the truck with KC HiLites Gravity LEDs, a custom tailgate, custom vintage headlight/taillight designs, custom tubular bumpers, custom 1985 Toyota truck paint, 1985 Toyota Truck mud flaps and a custom light bar. Additional modifications came in the form of TRD wheels, an off-road suspension, BF Goodrich tires and "D-4S" fuel injection badging to complete the throwback look.
