Having owned both 4 and 6 cylinder I would go with 6 as that engine can even seem anemic at times. Maintenance will be minimal, just standard stuff like oil and brakes. Both easy for a DIY guy.

I have spoken to the I-10 Toyota guys a couple of times.
They have a network of west coast sources for Toyota parts and older trucks.
They localize all the stuff to LA and hit the road. One operable truck tows the inoperable truck, both packed full. sometimes three pairs in a caravan.
When they hit the Mex border its 5 days driving in only daylight to Guatemala.
I have two 22R project trucks @ my AZ home. I get notes on my gate a lot.
Thinking of a Somalia style urban assault vehicle.
Need a Browning 50 Cal?
