Just bought my new/used trail rig. 150,000 miles nice condition with minimal things to do on it. Runs good just needs a brake job. Negotiated the price down to $7900. Only thing I didn't get were lockers the ones with lockers the price was 3-4 thousand more. What do you guys think, did I get a good deal.

So when I can use your 4runner since I know you won't be driving that as much

Looking at it in person makes the deal even better! Great find!!

Looking good! Are you going to lift it and put 35's on it?

Thats one fancy trail rig - I checked out a one LC's when I was Yota shoping. Is there much differenc in size between the 2 rigs? They look to be about the same in the photo but I have yet to park next to one. Is the LC longer or wider?

You know I am. I already have a list of mods- Lift, Exhaust, various engine mods, and ofcourse new shoes. Supercharger would be cool, but I don't think I can sneek another s/c past the better half.

The difference is mostly in the back, the LC has a bigger butt than the runner, and handles a little bit stiffer. Besides that Its a sweet ride.

I = In-line. All the cylinders are in a straight line rather than 3 on a side in the shape of a V.

Think of a 4 cylinder with 2 extra cylinders, it's just a smoother engine then a V6, their are advantages but it's more like do you perfer a V6 or a V8, you do realize the IS300 has a straight 6, nice ride

I think I've heard that the straight 6's are more reliable and maybe develop better torque for their displacement. But they need more space up front so they aren't as popular as they once were.
