Looking to Purchase - Questions

[cburton]

Went and checked out a 08 Limited 4wd V8. Truck is very clean one owner with dealer maintenance records every 5K. I was very surprised to see that it didn't have a sunroof, based on reading in the forum this is quite rare...

Asking price is 23,900. Any opinions on this price? Based on looking at autotrader and craigslist it seems fair. Thoughts?:shrug:

My suggestion would be to take the VIN number and create an account on the Toyota Owners website. It will allow you to view the vehicles service history to see how the previous owner took care of the car. How many miles does it have? Other than that, sounds like you may have found yourself a nice deal

No sunroof on a Limited does sound odd.

did they stick the Limited sign on the back?
Anyway where are you based? Ive been toying with the idea of selling my 2006 v8 sport. But only to the right person, attached are some pics pm if interested in talking. It has exactly 50,500 miles on it at the moment and i only use it to go to work and is totally stock. Has sunroof LOL, cloth seats but i was toying with the idea of clazzio or wet okole anyway. Always servcied @ the Toyota dealer. Use it about 5000 miles a year and bought it certified 3 years ago. Some quick pics are attached of it outside my office this morning.

That only applies if you had the vehicle serviced at the dealer. And with 40 years of vehicle ownership I've NEVER had any of my vehicles serviced at a dealership.

Thanks for the heads up. Ran the VIN and it has a full service history at a local Toyota dealer every 5,000 miles. It currently has approx 67,000 miles on it. Seems a bit high for an 2008 but looks like it was well maintained.

Pretty sure its a true limited, has leather, homelink, navigation, and the standard hood on it. Your truck looks great, unfortunately I am on the opposite coast in California.
