5 spd and supercharged? If the price is right and the truck is clean on top and bottom go for it! Maintenance history is a great plus too

I would bet you are looking at the one in PA, 200K+ miles.

I LOVE my supercharger.
Other options are all subjective. Although I will say a 2WD 4Runner is not all that useful... at least not for me. And I don't offroad, but do live in a state that gets a lot of snow.

yup, i just found out it has a frame rot and didn't pass inspection. the owner told me he returned it where he got it in NJ. Now I'm seeing it for sale again at NJ. looks like the undercarriage was spray painted now.

How bad is the frame rot? If it's repairable with a just a few patches, a 5 speed 4wd supercharged with 200k for $7k is a great deal, IMO.

I'll pay half that price if there's a hole in the frame. It's an easy fix but I can find better trucks for that money. Paterson is known for shady ass used car dealers so buyer beware.

That's a real shame. That would be an awesome rig otherwise.

The undercarriage was a red flag for me. You can tell it was covered. And with how the engine bay looks, you know it would have more rust than that.

Real deceptive dealer, of course they are in Paterson
He shows pictures of the undercarriage above the rear wheel and it looks good.
NJ doesn't inspect the frame or anything really. Just emissions.
Scary stuff.

Poor guy was charged a restocking fee $1100.
So my hunt still goes on , my search moving down south of me . Looking for an e locked 99 or 2000 . I would just consider a non locked one if it's really in prestine condition .
