    2003 Sequoia Limited - 2uz donor - $2000 in IL

    Selling my 03 Sequoia Limited. Frame is rusted. Still drive able and and motor runs very strong. Body and drivetrain is in good condition. Picked up up about 4 years ago with 180K miles. Towed a 17.5ft Bayliner this summer. Frame is rusted above the drive control arm. Frame was coated...

    99 3rd gen limited vs GX470

    Body of the 04 is surprisingly in good shape. Even better shape than a couple I looked at listed in the $10k-12K. The plastic bumpers and some of the plastic body panels have some scrapes but the body is relatively spotless. Undercarriage is decent for a Midwest vehicle. Surface rust but I...

    99 3rd gen limited vs GX470

    Thanks for the input. I should note that we also have an 03 sequouia. With 3 kids and a mastiff, its the weekend/road trip warrior with 230k miles on the clock. The main reason for me considering the GX is for the low miles compared to my 3rd gen and the issues can be fixed reasonably. In...

    99 3rd gen limited vs GX470

    I thought about buying it and keeping my 3rd gen but we already have an 03 sequoia designated as the family Colorado Cruiser and my wife has her 2015 GX460. Unfortunately 1 has to go. Frame rust is the typical surface rust. I should also add that in the last 3 years, the gx470 was only...

    99 3rd gen limited vs GX470

    So my dilemma is I came across an midwest, 3 owner, 04 gx470 with less than 120K miles for $6500. Its lacking service history. But it needs some TLC. Interior has been used but in good shape other wise. I currently have a 99 limited with 236K still running the original timing belt and water...

    Hope for the best prepare for the worst.How are you prepping for the covid-19 virus.

    Just want to give a couple updates and reminders. In Illinois, travel has been deemed ESSENTIAL if your daughter is training to be a professional equestrian rider. It is known that they have a ranch in Florida and it is also known that their daughter has been training to be a professional...

    How is "distance learning" going for you and your children?

    I have 2 kids doing e learning. Taking this as an opportunity to vent. Oldest in 2nd grade and middle child in kindergarten. The 2nd grade e learning has been marginal at best. Servers are known to have issues for certain required activities. Kindergarten is basic to begin with so not to...

    Hope for the best prepare for the worst.How are you prepping for the covid-19 virus.

    I just want ask if anyone has noticed that its GM and FORD making ventilators. Two companies not exactly known for the RELIABILITY. And one of the main reasons most of us are in the forum. Makes me wonder if they are giving a 5 day/60 hour (which ever comes first) warranty on them???

    Starting an overland youtube/instagram

    Good luck with the channel. I personally, enjoy watching the grass roots overland type videos. Once the sponsors start pitching in is when, I stop watching. What were once honest reviews of gear and equipment used, now become very biased.

    Hope for the best prepare for the worst.How are you prepping for the covid-19 virus.

    Per CDC, 22,252 deaths "linked" to the coronavirus. Admissions for coronavirus patients have been on a downward trend. Hospitals in major cities packing up coronavirus run off tents Health experts are coming out stating the worst is behind us. This disease ran rampant for the US for at...

    Hope for the best prepare for the worst.How are you prepping for the covid-19 virus.

    Absolutely! I have an uncle I am close with who smokes like a chimney, drinks heavy, not too active, has heart disease and is 60. He himself has admitted he is a dead man walking. It will be sad if he passes but is well aware of the situation his lifestyle has put him in. Doesn't blame...

    Hope for the best prepare for the worst.How are you prepping for the covid-19 virus.

    Two things to add to this. 1) Those people were in poor health prior to contracting the virus. Combinations of hypertension, diabetes and histories of smoking. So im my opinion, these people killed themselves. 2) From January to April, that is the only instance the CDC could find of this...

    Hope for the best prepare for the worst.How are you prepping for the covid-19 virus.

    Take away the junk food, booze, vapors, and cigs, all things that directly contribute to hypertension, diabetes, COPD and you have over a 99% survival rate. But what you are saying is that its NOT OK for the government to tell you what to eat and drink or smoke but its OK for the government to...

    I am not a infectious disease control specialist. Just a biomedical engineer specializing in cardiology and neurology. I am someone that looks at the facts and statistics on hand instead of believing everything that is posted on facebook and then reposting on here. Even the Democratic...

    Hope for the best prepare for the worst.How are you prepping for the covid-19 virus.

    There is actually no evidence to support that social distancing is working. At the same time there is no evidence to support that it is not working. Not enough testing available. Which makes me think that this virus was already known it wasnt as bad as the media made it out to be. And when...
