I want that truck. It has the three things I need to complete my exterior . . . sport hood, color matched wide flares, and color matched rear center bumper piece. Those are the only things my exterior is missing! (other than WMW roof rack, 33 tires, SCS wheels, jaos spoiler, sliders, led bar, new paint job, etc) How about you buy it, then trade me for mine (minus a few of my mods) then sell mine. Sounds like a good deal right?

If that's a 4" lift, then I must have special edition TRD 99 tall coils that give you 12" of monster trucking lift. If I ever wanna lower mine I'm looking into his super not-stock suspension lift.
Seriously though, if somebody buys it...:rockthrow:
For that price I could almost buy the equivalent of my truck 3 times over... and mine was 138k when I bought it, must be a world record lowest mileage EVER.
He must be saving up for one of these :flypig:

Or, he has indeed used it exclusively off-road...which means those low ODO miles are meaningless.

I wonder if one could make decent money buying 4runners in the mid-Atlantic and southern states (carefully checking for frame rust) and selling them in the Pac NW.
I can see my ad now -
Super rare; 1999; 2wd; Desert Dune; Auto; Base Model; No Rear Locker; Over $10,000 put into truck (via the gas tank). Original Genuine Toyota Radiator, Timing Belt, and LBJs. Tires in excellent condition (if you need track day slicks). Brakes have audible notification of operation, plus vibrate mode. Handy light on dash indicates engine is present. Only 460,000 KM on odometer; I believe that equates to 85,000 miles. Only $9999, much lower than ridiculously priced purple 4Runners sold elsewhere.

There is definitely money to be had here in the Eastern Mid-Atlantic for 4Runners. Most mom and pop dealers have at least 2 3rd gens on their lots, and my neighbor 1 house down buys, repairs, and flips them - sort of like PitbullRescuer. He has a '01 Black Limited 4WD that he is fixing up. He said he generally makes $300-900 on each vehicle. Which he flips them relatively quick. It's not primary but his hobby, rather.

yes. without hesitation, yes you could.
4x4's, especially Toyotas sell for a lot higher up here.

If anyone wants to make a business out of it, I'll help. They sell for so much more than they should in the PNW. I bet you could make $2k a vehicle if you drive them here. I'll drive them here and store them till they sell. 
the one I bought for $5500 was a steal since it had a locker. I've seen ones with more miles and no locker go for an easy $7500.

Look at those panel gaps! It must have been fixed in one of the best body shops around with only OEM parts.

Judging by his poorly written post he has automatic lockers; which he has mislabeled as spools. Which is probably because his IQ is below room temp.
"it doesn't lock up under deceleration"
Which is what an auto-locker does, like Lock-Rite, Aussie
Plus, no one makes a spool for the 7.5, for good reason

That's for extra "flex" like they do with land rovers.
Wow, if a salvage is worth $8900, I am going to go sell mine for $20K!
With "rare clean title"...sweet!
