I have never posted on yotatech before but have been a lurker for the last 8 months...sorry for my first post being a for sale.
anywho,
I am looking to sell out-right or will even consider trading, my '93 yota pickup.

year: 1993
model: ext. cab DX
miles: 169,xxx
engine: 3.0L v6
transmission: manual 5 speed

VIN: JT4VN13D3P5103650

Recent History of truck
I have had the truck since Oct. of 2005.
I have driven the truck daily for the last 7k miles
I have changed the oil and filter every 3k miles since I have owned the truck.

Cosmetic condition
In my opinion, I would rate the cosmetic condition of this truck a 6.5 out of 10.
BAD

• minor rust at corner of passenger door (pictured below)
• minor rust spot along rear passenger wheel well (pictured below)
• minor rust spot bed rail driver's side (pictured below)
• minor rust spots in pickup bed (pictured below)
• pickup bed rails have holes drilled into them...previous owner had a camper top on truck (camper top will come with truck if you are interested in it)
• numerous light scratches in paint at various parts on truck
• normal wear and tear on interior...few stains in carpet, driver's seat worn
• winshield has crack along bottom but the crack has not expanded since I have owned it.
• no tailgate...tailgate net in it's place

GOOD

• new BFG 31x15x10.5 all terrain tires at 160k miles
• new 15x10 black powder coated wheels at 160k miles
• tinted windows (rear sliding window not tinted)
• new pioneer CD player (approx. 6mo's old)
• new seat cover's at 160k miles
• tubular rear bumper

Driving condition
The truck drives strong.
Most of my mileage is in town and I constantly get 17mpg
The truck will easily cruise the hwy at 70+mph and hold mph steady

• new cat. converter, spintech muffler, O2 sensor at 162k miles
• steering linkage recall done at 162k miles
• new CV joint(passenger side) at 162k miles
• new K&N drop in air filter at 160k miles
• new battery at 165k miles
• new spark plugs & wires at 166k
• new master & slave cylinder at 166k
• new fuel filter at 166k

Important Notes:
-truck does not have air conditioning, was not installed from factory
-truck does have cruise control, and cruise control does work!
-the engine leaks oil...about 1 quart every 3 months...I think it is leaking from the driver's side valve cover.?.


If I were to keep the truck i would do the following:
-replace the front winshield
-line-X the pickup bed & bed rails
-replace the driver's side valve cover gasket
-re-tint the windows

Asking price: $5,000 obo If the selling price is right, I am willing to deliver/meet you the buyer, up to 350 miles of 66612

Thanks for looking!

 

any advice, opinions, offer's on this truck?

 

your truck caught my attention...and amazingly its just inside my price range...but are you anywhere close to texas?

 

He's in Topeka, KS.

Nice looking truck JWhite.

 

like EWAYota said, I am in Topeka, KS.

I just updated the original post b/c the truck now has close to 169,000.
I might add, the reason for all the miles lately is that I just drove it from Topeka, KS to Tucson, AZ and back = 2600 miles.

the trip there, i had a full load (camper shell, full bed, full cab) of stuff.
the truck performed better than i could have imagined. 70 - 75 mph on the hwy was no problem...with the full load, on the way to tucson, the truck averaged 19mpg!

On the way back (empty truck) I got 21mpg once and for the most part averaged 19mpg. I believe the truck would have gotten better mpg, but I set the cruise at 80mph (3500 rpm) and let 'er roll.

I'm almost having second thoughts about selling her.

BigBen, if you are interested, I would be willing to drive the truck (meet you) up to 350miles of Topeka, KS.

TIA
