    Nice to know a 2003 is still worth that much and ours has less miles on it then that.
    It might be and maybe just debadged?
    I had our broker look for a Sport Edition and came back to us with an SR5 JBL edition. Everything was exactly like a Sport except the badges and the SKEWP. :D Oh and it was about $3k less.

    If it has the V8 the only things that tend to be a pain are the headers cracking (ours has a small crack in it now) which makes them sound like they have a stuck valve until they are warm and the sunroofs will fall off track (ours has a loose stabilizer). Both of these are not horribly expensive parts wise but will kick your ass into tomorrow from the labor.
    You are making the right choice man. And definitely other AT's vs the Duratrac. Take a look at Hercule's tires too. :)

    I want the skwep. I would be ok with the v6 too. It can't be any slower than my 2000 3slow.

    Ahem:wave:

    Same as the tacos, only the sports have the "scoop". Sports also have larger calipers, and most cannot get 16" wheels to fit.

    The 03'-04 V6's have the 4 spd tranny, 05+ got the 5 spd. If you go with the V8, the timing chain and water pump needs to be done at 100K, which is an ~$2K expense if it hasn't been done, so that is probably the biggest thing to consider. If you can find one, I would say a V8 '08 would be the "best" 4th gen runner to pick up.

    Thanks for the info. I don't want to go to new. Because I don't want a big payment on this. But we will see what happens.

    Don't be a hater! That will never happen. I'm just holding off buying a diesel truck once I start building a house in said canyon. So I don't want a massive payment on something I'm going the wheel and camp with.

    Maybe I doubt I would regret the 6. I didn't regret it in my 2000.
