i agree with joker.. its not liek he held a gun to the guys head and said take $900 for it or die.. as far as we kno he didnt haha jk. but seriously. if you make an offer, then make another one and the person accepts willingly.. hows that dirty? peow130. so your tellin me if you was gonna give 1500 for that runner, you go to pick it an dthe guy says.. gimmie $1000 and its yours. then you would say "no 1500 is the least im givin you" dont think soooo. money in hand talks

Excellent looking runner and deal!

In the last two months I've bought 2 runners, don't ask why, but there seem to be two kinds of people out there when it comes to low prices. In a hurry, or just ready for it to go to someone else to enjoy. Both sellers in my case (2 VERY good deals) said they had gotten every penny they put into theirs back in usefulness and memories and were just ready to let it go to a new home for someone else to enjoy.

One of the guys I bought from dropped his price 50% because he liked my plans for his runner.

I sold my V8 FJ60 for about half what it was worth because it went to a non-profit inner city group teaching kids about off-roading and the outdoors.

So, on that note, we don't know why it's such a good deal, but congrats to you Joker for finding it!!!

That's a good find!!! Got a great deal on it. You made an offer and he took it. He didn't have to take the 9 but he did good for you.

Nice looking machine she'll do you well and first off cover the rad!!!

its a v6. Its not too bad getting up to speed. Just gets horrible gas mileage.

The speedo doesnt work, but im assuming im going around 70mph with the tac at around 1800-2000rpm's

Mine was a steal too and I don't feel bad about it, I paid $1,200 for mine and it ran perfect with no problems. The only things that don't work are the ac and moonroof doesn't open. So as long as the buyer and seller agree on a price, no matter how low then it's ok.

Nice!!! Now just upgrade to a 3.4 5vze and SAS that thing!! And yeah, guy could have counter-haggled, I don't really feel bad for him. Guy should have looked into his mechanical problems further as well. Obviously he didn't know about Yotatech.
