    LOL, is this guy serious ?? $ 25K for a 4x4 truck that is about as usable as a '63 Cadillac would be climbing dunes in Glamis !!!! Let's see ,hhmmm, 6" fabtech susp. (from what I've seen & heard from techs, fabtech kits are/were POS system from the get) 3" spacers, 3" body lift ?? AND WHAT ???? 38" swampers ??? WOW duuuuude you have a first rate NON-roader that will roll like a donut down a ditch on anything more than a , we'll say 10-15% incline. The fucking tires & wheels alone are enough to snap the spindles like a twig if a pothole in the road can't be avoided, but showing this POS ( yes, I said PIECE OF SHIT! , even if it is a Toyota )jumping into the abyss like its a selling point only means he AIMS for potholes !!! LOL , I'll take my stock TRD & drive circles around , under, definintely NOT OVER that bloated money pit ANY TIME...lol . OH YEAH its ALL been replaced ITS ALLLL G.! ( the G in this case means GARBAGE)

    A note to first time 4x truck owners: THIS IS WHAT NOT TO DO TO YOUR TACO!! I never/seldom put down ANYBODYS rig, but this guy has completely jacked his ride & not in the good way, Now he's gonna pull in some young, wide eyed kid & basically screw him out of his money I'll give him $$ 2500 for the salvage, cause thats all it is .....:jerkoff::jerkoff::jerkoff::jerkoff::jerkoff: :smack::smack::frusty:

    I'm gonna respond to this Craigs lister, i can't help myself ...

    you guys gotta remember... in Hawaii, that is the style of modding trucks...

    plus, with the shipping costs of getting parts over there, they pay a huge premium for the parts we take for granted...

    sooooooooooooo, based on their market and location and style, it could very well be worth 25k...

    plus, he had the truck rebuilt so it's pretty much like new...

    extra credit Quote: " There is none so blind as one who will not see."

    Bro', you could dip that truck in gold & it still ain't worth more than say this fine Nissan here....

    OK I guess if all ya wanted to do was mall crawl & change U joints, it would serve a purpose, I guess I'm getting too old to get pumped up about a truck that has OD'd on steroids...

    I'm not going to get into a pissing match with ya guy, but no matter how ya dice it , the truck was a total , so the owner may have bought the salvage & either patch-welded & seam puttied the frame back together (likely) or found a rolling chassis & piled all that crap back on it. ( I'll bet it drives down the road at an angle) I mean c'mon, 3" spacer w/3" body lift (Which most if not all of us here agree isn't the hot setup,nor safe way to go) & topped off with a 6" Fabtech lift ? & no it ain't my kid (or he'd get one of these :smack:for either wanting this truck, or for trying to sell it off to someone who isn't savvy enough yet to know a potential lemon when he sees/smells it ) So , yeah it looks pretty bad ass & the happy new owner gets in it & flips the fucker because he thinks it can go anywhere because it has so much body roll & has absolutely no center of gravity or balance point & is forever getting dollared to death with drive line issues. Speaking of issues, I'm not holding on to anything, seems like you are though bro' you aren't thinking about buying this truck are you ?? LOL we'll have to agree to disagree on this one.....:cool:
