90,000. It's a really peppy engine. I'd take it over my 3vze anyday... hahahah. There's a few people showing interest in it. We just want to get it gone so we can buy a more suitable vehicle for the family...

Might want to check out a 4door for carrying a car seat. The rear facing infant carriers take up a lot of room and I doubt anyone would be able to sit in the passenger seat with it in there if it would fit at all. When the baby is able to sit in a front facing seat (after 1 year old)it would work, but it would still be very tight.

My 2001 S/C Doublecab is the family vehicle, the rear facing car seat works just fine. We have three different brands for all the vehicles and all work fine. I am 6'2" and I have the drivers seat slid all the way back. Still no issue. My 88 4runner is great with that too. Dont buy a 2002 lexus is300. I can drive it with the seat in that.

We would get a double cab in the generation that she likes, but they only come in automatic. She really likes to drive manual. I was thinking about doing a manual tranny conversion on an '01-04 D-Cab... any pointers?

I have done alot of conversions but thats one that I would not attempt. Do what I did. If the auto is not exciting enough, put the supercharger on it. That will keep her busy and she will be happy. If I had to guess, I think you would need the transmission computer, possibly the ECM for a manual depending on how it interfaces, Of course the transmission and I believe the transfercases are different too, shifters, manual console. New radiator or just plug the cooling lines. Alot of work. Other option is to buy an '06 where the manual is offered.
