If I posted this in the wrong section, Moderator or admin, please let me know and I'll delete it and repost in the right section. I just want lots of members/readers to see it.

We have a 1988 4Runner Black 22RE with almost 140k miles. It was my dads, he bought it in 1991 used. I learned to drive it and it was my first vehicle. About 6 years ago I bought a Jeep Cherokee, so I essentially gave it back to my dad. We both didn't have the space to keep it so he sold it to my mother. They divorced when I was 3, thats the reason for selling and not just handing it over.

Anyways she is getting tired of driving it since it is a manual. She offered it back to me, but I have a new 4Runner, and really prefer to only own one vehicle and really only have enough space for just one vehicle.

It runs great, as mentioned I think its almost at 140k miles. I just adjusted the valves a few weeks ago and changed the spark plugs, wires, cap and rotor along with an oil change with 20W50 Royal Purple and WIX filter. We have only ran Synthetic oil since my dad purchased it. I'm the one thats done every oil change since I was able to drive. From the pics you can see it has 15x7 Pro Comp Steel Black wheels, BFG All terrain 31" tires tube front and rear bumpers. I installed an Aussie Locker in the rear. It has BufBuilt Transmission Skid and mount and more.

I'm just wondering if I should try and keep it or attempt to sell, and would anyone here be interested in buying it or telling me what I should attempt to sell it at.

Thanks for looking,
Nathan

You should give it to me :naughty:

It is a classic and could be a lot of fun, but if you never use it I would try to sell it to someone who would really appreciate it. I would try to sell it to someone on this site or yotatech because you know it will go to good home. If you posted this a year ago I would have been all over it.

What are you thinking is a selling price?
 
I agree that IF you REALLY need to sell it you should sell it to someone from this site or one like this. If it were me I would keep the older one for an offroad/hunting/ trail rig and keep the other one as a daily driver.

If you're ever taking it up closer to the bay area for some reason my girlfriend and myself would be very interested in checking it out. Looks like a great rig and I know they run forever
 
I will buy it from you!

I am looking for another 22re manuel. Black is fine it looks straight in the pics. My only concern is cancer(rust) Do not be fooled by my number I am closer to than you think. 702.232.8662 email at [email protected]. I can pick it up tuesday of this week. It will cared for, used well, and in 3 months I send you a picture and you may wish you would have kept it. If you want to sell it I will pay you a fair price. If you keep it you can enjoy it for years to come and of you have kids they can learn to drive it. It is your call!
