Dude, you have no idea how tempting that is, mainly because your 4Runner is a turbo!

Shoot me an email (thomas.lovejoy@usafa.af.mil) with the specs on both and i'll think about it. The reason i'm trying to sell it is because (even though she doesnt know it) i am picking up an 08 FJ tomorrow for my wife for her Christmas present... gotta hide it at Huths house until Christmas though!! So i could really use the cash to offset the cost of the FJ, but let me think about it.

For the right offer i will bring it to Cali, we travel out there a lot as it is and are always looking for an excuse to go back, where you at? You could also look into flights coming into Denver, they are a little cheaper and its not terribly far away, i'll come pick you up if you fly in.

I had this year model and color and loved it!!!!! I would buy this if you still had it in January. I will be looking for one like this same coler w/ lift after the first of the year! Best vehicle I ever had! Why you getting rid of it? Free bump for a bad ass runner

If you are serious about buying it after the first of the year get in touch with me, it will probably still be here seeing as how no one seems to have any money, especially this time of year!! I am selling because earlier this week i took delivery of an 08 FJ Cruiser for my wife for a Christmas present and this is her DD right now, so no need for both anymore and i have other projects i want to fund so it makes sense to sell this one.

Yes I am serious but the mileage and the distance between us scares me away a little. I know its a yota but 185,000 is a lot of mileage. Mine had 140,000 and still ran fine but....185,000 sounds like new motor time. Even though a friend of mine has one with 300k and still running fine and its a turbo.

I have to say, thats the first time i have ever heard anyone say that about a Toyota! No offense, but thats a little overboard if you ask me.

Anyhow, if the new years spins around and you want to work something out let me know.

185K???? Yep,that's the first time I've heard that on this board ever.

Most people see easily 250k on what seems like all Toyotas but of course there are a few that don't make it to 150k but that's very rare and usually can be traced to owner neglect.

I've got almost 140k on mine and last year I did a compression check and all my cylinders were within 1-3psi of stock specs.

No problem man. I just didnt think about the mileage it had on it. When I bought mine it had low mileage. I have come to learn over the years that high mileage cars are for people with deep pockets and a mechanical skill. And I don't have either. lol

Okiyota, don't worry. You'll sell that truck soon! It's just this time of year is pretty tough for everyone. You have an awesome awesome truck though. You'll sell it!

Thanks, i'm not too worried about it either way, i dont have to sell it i just have too many vehicles as it is plus the new one that is hiding at my buddies house until Christmas morning. And yeah, this time of year is probably the dumbest time to try and sell, but like i said, i can wait.

Here's a few more pics for those interested....



This one it looks like the slider is getting bent, but i can assure you it is as straight as the day i put them on...












Look fellas, buy it and even you wife will want to go wheeling, although she may demand to drive!!....
