This sold just under asking price after a PPI for those in the market. Cheers,

Price police - am I out of the ballpark with this?

Highway driving is relatively easy on vehicles. I think you're much better off in a high mileage 4Runner that you know the history of than a 50k Kia with no records. Plus the 3.4 is common enough to find parts for virtually anywhere if things do go south. I have taken my 320k Tacoma and now my...

short version: 265,000 miles, good mechanical condition, average cosmetic condition, ~2.5" lift, bike rack not included, tent is negotiable but I would prefer to keep it and will not sell it without the vehicle. Long version: When my 325k 2000 Tacoma was totaled in the hail storm last year I...

I believe rhino racks makes a stock replacement setup that claims to hold the highest load of all traditional rails. I've had good luck with their products in the past

Put it up for sale :crybaby: Too much highway driving, too little wheeling. Thinking it's time for the minivan. Or a gx470...
