Good deal on a 2004 4Runner??

[AlrightGuy]

Just ran into what looks to be a killer deal! Found a 2004 4runner sport, V8 4x4 with 130000 miles, silver, has a trac light on (probably a sensor), small dent in front bumper and the tires arent the greatest. Im going to look at it after work today.
I wasnt in the market but my girl could use a new vehicle and with gas at $4 a gallon why not another 4Runner!:doh:
Probably short on time to be asking but what do you all think a truck like this would go for? Im keeping the price a secret until I see it.:laugh:

Is this that cheap one on craigslist? I thought it was a deal.

Hot sure how this will transfer to the board, but here are CR's prices for a 2004:

2004 $8,375 - $11,450
Toyota 4Runner Sport Utility Auto 4WD 8 Cyl 4 Doors $10,700


In Good Condition, Kelly Blue Book Says $10195.00

Its not on Craigslist.
Just got back from looking at it....Its got a few lights on the dash, abs, vsc, trac and check (?). Says its a wheel sensor. It runs and drives great. Front bumper cover is busted and the rear hatch has a dent and a little rust coming through. Other than that it just needs detailed. I dont know if were gonna pull the trigger or not. I think it would be stupid not to but it kinda sucks taking out a loan on something thats going to need a few parts thrown at it when we dont "need" it.

Thanks Jack. When she told me the price I laughed and thought she misunderstood but after talking to the owners it got even cheaper. If I had the cash I would grab it up today but she would have to get a loan and shes kind of up in the air right now. They are going to hold it until tomorrow for her but then itll be gone quick. A divorce is forcing the sale.

I assumed it was this one, but it's an 03.

Depending on your timeframes I might be putting mine up for sale very soon. Test driving a few options this weekend, PM me for more info.

They were asking $6500, went to $6000. We decide we didnt want a loan so got ahold of them and said we were passing and she quickly said she would go lower on the price as she wants a Jeep.
The man we talked to when we went and looked at it said his daughter (the owner) was going through a divorce and it had to go. He also said that they have the title but theyre not sure if the lien is cleared.:suspicious:

Something isnt right about this. Ill pass

Uh yeah, pass. Sounds like a possible scam to me.
