If I was selling that truck I'd hope for $2k, but if I was buying it I wouldn't pay a dime over $1200...

Good luck with it though and don't mind me. I tend to be, shall we say, unreasonable sometimes.

You guys are funny.
Price is local MARKET on the truck, with basic disclosure in regard of milage and age.
NOT what do you all "think" is worth, regardless in what hole it been before.
Do not even ask advice on price here, just check your local trader and go from there. Or try Ebay.

Build trucks value? Also market, forget parts list.
Would I buy build truck from known "builder"? Nah, I can do it myself and it is my pleasure... but most of you gentleman, with all due respect, are just offroad hobbyst with no wrenching expirience, tools, equipment... so why not. It is usually a bargain.

Lastly should Swamp sell 4runner, why? To get other junk you do not know? I understand runner is your only vehicle. Those `lil PU are totally unpractical, there is no room to keep stuff locked, cant carry passangers, etc... real pitty.
I have T100 standard cab and it sits 3 on the bench, not 2 like pu, but still I wouldn`t keep it if it was my only vehicle.
If you think you be OK with PU for practical reasons, get a jeep it is more sensible choice I would think.

And I'll quote from the first post in the thread by the thread starter...

You know you could spend a little less time on here trying to be a smart ass and just simply answer the questions people ask... It would win you a lot more popularity points.

Everyone in the thread simply answered the question he asked in the first post. Why couldn't you just do the same?

First of all, price is not just about just about local market, milage and age. Condition, mechanical reliability, brand, cosmetic appeal, and buyer disposition all play a big role in the price that you'll get for your vehicle. Second of all, I've already checked with a "trader"

Unpracticle? My "lil" tacoma saved my life. No room to keep stuff locked? Ok, I guess if you don't have the mental capacity to operate a tool box, lockable tonneau cover, or chain something down and pad lock it, maybe. Passengers? If I really carried around that many passengers, I'd put the back seats back in the runner. But seeing as how I don't, and the only other people I carry with me is women, I'm sure a s/c with bench seats will work just dandy for me. And if you don't understand about women and bench seats, I'm not going to ruin it for you...

Do you even know how or what I use my vehicle for? And a jeep... HAH!

And another thing.
