Every shop has that one truck.
The truck that gets used to test ideas, try new products, and prove what works. The truck that slowly evolves over time into something that perfectly reflects the people who built it.
For us, that truck was this 2021 Toyota Tundra.
Originally built to be the ultimate Tundra, the KRAVE way, this truck started life as our vision of what a full-size overland and adventure rig should be. Capable, reliable, comfortable, and ready to tackle everything from long highway drives to remote backcountry trails.
Eventually, the truck found a new home with a great customer who shared the same vision. Since then, the build has continued to evolve, most notably with the addition of a Four Wheel Camper Raven, taking an already capable platform and turning it into an incredible road-trip and adventure machine.
The result is a truck that's just as comfortable crossing provinces as it is setting up camp at the end of a remote forestry road.
And let's be honest, who doesn't love a 5.7L V8?

What we love most about this truck is how it evolved over time.
It started as a KRAVE shop build, became a customer build, and continues to grow with every trip and adventure. The addition of the Four Wheel Camper Raven completely changed how the truck gets used, turning it into a comfortable and incredibly capable travel platform that can handle just about anything Western Canada throws at it.
Whether it's chasing fishing spots, exploring remote mountain roads, camping beside alpine lakes, or simply taking the scenic route home, this Tundra is always ready for the next adventure.
