Wondering if someone would be will to check out a truck for me?

How can a digital odometer rolled back though?

and odbII reader and the right software on it, it's actually easier then what it used to be because of the computer, you just hook up to the ecu and type in whatever number you want as opposed to having to manually roll the number back to something favorable, that said though i wouldn't let something like some minor rust spots being painted over as a sign the seller is lying about mileage as these trucks are starting to get old and can very easily be a low mile truck with a bit of rust from just sitting in the drive way for 10+ years.
i've come across deals like that before as well, where it was some old handicapped person who only drove 10 miles a moth back and forth between wallmart and the house, so it was a 15 year old truck with less then 30k on it, it can happen but usually not the case with dealers and most certainly not the case with these 405 guys....

you just reprogram it or clear it and put in the milage you want. dealers can do this if say they are replacing the damaged or broken cluster with a new one, the new one would say 000000, but if the car had 97325 miles on it they would need to correct the 000000 to 97325, they simply hook it up to a computer and using the softwear simply plug in the mileage.
 
If ur set on spending that kinda money on a 4r I'll sell u mine. However, its not for sale Lol. However, Scott @ addicted offroad would be my choice if I was to spend that kinda coin. I'd trust local advise on the sellers , coming from Hepar that's golden. He helped me recently very trustworthy.
 
Can you imagine how much OEM part prices will be when the buyer actually has to start replacing the water pump, timing belt, etc?

Find one with higher miles for a much lower price, or if you aren't married to buying a 3rd generation, look at the 4th gen.
 
I'm waiting for the ultimate 4Runner barn find... like this pack of Neons:

150 brand-new 1997 Chrysler Neons is the ultimate barn find

I wonder how much a 0 mile 1997 4Runner would go for today?

That is fascinating!!! I would love to know how in the hell that happened and why they are there. Maybe this was like an Auction Hunters type thing where they bid on the unit blindly. This has really got the hamsters in my head running on that rusty wheel overtime.
 
I just like how they describe a barn full of 1997 Dodge Neon's as being the ultimate find.

haha x2 wasn't there that guy that found a bunch of Mercedes and porches in the barn and what about the Audi car that was worth like 10 million found in the bar? i'll see if i can find linky's

also i think it was audi's first win car at le mans was also found in a bar a few years ago, have you guys ever seen the documentary on Ralph Laurens car collection? it'll blow your mind!

I know that first one was found out to be a hoax. That 2nd one is awesome though! (Sorry OP. We're not doing a good job of staying on topic)

meh, this thread is dead for him now, no one's going to look at that truck any who as we know the dealer is a shiester, i too am willing to have a look for the guy if he comes up with something worth while.
