Man, I just want to find my T4R :frog: !

Thanks BigSlim.

In the end, I passed :( Back on the hunt...

Thanks jgeorg. My mech. has provided some feedback post-inspection. Overall, it's a pretty healthy truck still. However, the transmission cooler lines look quite rusty and are sweating. Rust I expect at this age and especially in this region/climate, but is sweat something to really worry...

The owner is also unsure of why the cat. and evap system were "Not Ready". He is not aware of any issues with the battery or an electrical drain of any kind. Overall, the truck was good to him except for a coolant system issue. An inner hose blew and pressurized the system, and tranny fluid got...

My biggest concern for this guy is the rust on the hatch.

Ah. Of course it is :brick:
