Not yet. I'm down to $11,500.

Frank, I'm down to $12.5. I had advertised on CL and Autotrader, with little luck. I've had 20+ inquiries since I put it on FB market place, so ad channel is key. Avg. sale price nation wide is $4,500. My rig is a unicorn, rare, and in very good condition for its age, but with typical...

Thanks. I submitted it to BaT. They said they would run it, but only WITHOUT a reserve. I just got an offer for $10k, I'm going to keep advertising it for a while. We 'car people' that spent 1/4 of our lives taking care of our 'babies' always think it's worth more than it actually is. :lmao...

Thanks for the primer on the 5th Gen. I've changed my own oil since the 70's and on all my Toyota 4X4's since my 1980 4X4 Pickup. Glad to see the OF canister set-up is the same as my 2016 RAV4 XLE AWD, I know that procedure. I took advantage of the dealer's 'free' (included with purchase cost)...

Here's my 2019 T4R TRD Offroad next to my 1997 T4R. I've had the 2019 for a year now and have 3,600 miles on it. It's a great rig.

I quickly learned....just buy a replacement mirror. Cheap fix. I was disappointed that the mirror vibrates in the housing and gave the vendor that feedback.

Any ideas on where to purchase the factory original spare tire tools (green bag, lug wrench, crank, etc.) for a 3rd Gen T4R (1997)? I have owned my TR4 since new and I have no idea how the tools disappeared from the rear storage compartment (but I suspect my son misplaced them while camping :-)

I backed my 1997 T4R into a light pole :-( Bought the replacement tail light on Am@zon and I'm now looking for a new bumper. Can anybody recommend a source, besides a junk yard?

I was able to remove the outside mirror from the housing and look into the swivel mechanism. I believe the mechanism works as follows: 1) Post, hollow - the wires for the electric motor come up the post; the mirror housing swivels on the post. 2) Spring - The spring, when compressed, applies...

Thanks. I'll look through those threads.
