1991 Mitsubishi Fuso FG, 4×4, 4.3L Diesel with Only 45,000 km

Overview

The 1991 Mitsubishi Fuso FG is a tilt-forward cab-over 3-seater vehicle with a remarkably low mileage of only 45,000 kilometers. Imported from Japan in 2008, this right-hand drive truck features a spacious 15-foot long, 7-foot wide, and 4-foot high cargo box equipped with three sets of double doors, making it a versatile choice for various uses.

Known for its economical nature, the Fuso FG is an ideal option for those who require a larger vehicle without the associated high fuel costs. However, its low power engine limits its top speed to 100 km/h. This model has also been recognized for its robust design and off-road capabilities, boasting a 14-inch ground clearance, making it easily convertible into an expedition vehicle or useful for businesses needing 4×4 commercial trucks.

History

For most of its existence, this Mitsubishi Fuso FG was parked in a warehouse in Japan, serving as a Disaster Relief Vehicle. It has experienced minimal use throughout its life and is in excellent condition. When it was decommissioned as a disaster relief vehicle, it contained large tents and kitchen facilities designed to be set up in disaster-affected areas.

Imported to Canada in 2008, the Fuso FG was destined for conversion into an expedition vehicle. However, due to personal reasons, the original importer was unable to proceed with the conversion, leading to its sale in 2009.

Current Use

Currently, the truck is used primarily for camping, seeing about 20-30 days of use each year. On non-camping days, it remains parked, only taken for short drives to keep its systems functional. The interior includes removable shelving for storing camping gear in Rubbermaid boxes, and a comfortable mattress for restful nights. The setup allows for outdoor cooking and enjoying the campsite atmosphere.

Additionally, a well-suited 15’ x 8’ awning has been added to provide shade and protect against rain, enhancing the overall camping experience.

Current Owner

At 67 years of age, the current owner has a background rooted in farm life in England, where he developed an understanding of vehicle maintenance. He has taken care of the Mitsubishi Fuso FG, ensuring it remains in top condition with no signs of abuse.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• Good vehicle condition with very low kilometers.
• No leaks and smells fresh and dry in both cab and cargo area.
• Only used as a summer vehicle, never driven in winter.

Cons

• The tachometer is non-functional.

Why is it for Sale?

The current owner and his wife are looking to transition into a pickup and camper setup for longer road trips across North America. The decision to sell the Fuso FG comes down to wanting a vehicle that can comfortably travel at full highway speeds while providing ample living space.

HISTORY
For most of its life this vehicle was parked in a warehouse in Japan. It was a Disaster Relief Vehicle, parked in a warehouse waiting for a disaster to happen. It has had minimal use for all its life and is in very good condition. When it was a Disaster Relief Vehicle it was packed with a large tent and kitchen facilities that could be transported to the location of the disaster and set up to feed the impacted population. The tent and kitchen did not come with the vehicle when I bought it. This vehicle was imported into Canada in 2008, several years prior to the tsunami that caused the nuclear meltdown in Japan, so it does not glow in the dark. The person who imported it was going to convert it to an expedition vehicle, but he had a second child, and the vehicle is only licensed to carry 3 passengers, so he sold it to me in 2009.

PRESENT USE.
My wife and I use for camping, so it gets used for about 20-30 days a year and the rest of the time it is parked in front of my house, other than occasional short drives to keep everything running smoothly. I have installed shelving (easily removed) down one side of the interior of the box and keep all my camping gear in Rubbermaid boxes on the shelves. We have a mattress in the back for sleeping on. Basically we use it to transport all our camping gear but the truck is not a camper per-say. No camping gear affixed inside the box. We set up a fold out table and chairs outside, set up the Coleman stove, cook and sit outside, and sleep on the mattress in the back of the box. I have added a 15’ x 8’ awning to the side of the box for rain or as a sunshade, and it works well.

PRESENT OWNER
I’m 67 years old. I started off life on a farm in England and we didn’t have much money so I learned to look after whatever I had. I still look after my things and treat them well, including this truck. It has not been abused and it runs well.

PROS AND CONS
PROS:
It’s a good vehicle in good condition with very low km’s.
No leaks – smells fresh and dry in both cab and box.
Summer vehicle only – not driven in winter.
CONS:
The tachometer doesn’t work.
The glow plug light on the dash is permanently on.
Limited visibility at some intersections due to right-hand drive.
Paint showing some wear but no serious rust (except one patch on one of the black lower bins).
Not aware of any other problems with the vehicle.

WHY AM I SELLING?
My wife and I want to take long distance road trips around North America and will buy a pickup and camper that will travel better at full highway speeds. Otherwise, I would keep it.

CONTACT
You can contact me (John) using phone, text or email. Although I will try and respond ASAP, I am sometimes busy, in which case you may not get a response until the next day.
