    :rofl:

    Yes, as my truck was literally parked there, but my truck probably knows that it...er...she doesn't need to worry...

    I was showing pictures of this red truck to my dad and while it looks cool, we believe the previous owner may have beaten the shit out of it. It has about 9,000 fewer miles than my truck, but I have no way of knowing if the previous owner was as obsessive about routine maintenance as I am; Also, $21,990 seems suspiciously low for this truck in this market...

    See what switch slots are populated, if it has a rear diff lock and bed outlet it's a TRD Offroad if not it's probably an SR5.
    Most likely just aftermarket stickers.

    Does that VIN lookup say if it's had the frame replaced?

    Just a regional upgrade trim. I prefer it to the ugly base offroad trim.

    Nah. Those are the original specs from when the truck was built. Original factory & port options.

    Northeast regional? It says it was sold new at Team Toyota in Langhorne, which isn't terribly far from this place (Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield)...

    Ahh, I see. Your truck likes to be the quiet spectator watching over in the corner of the room. Hey man, that's cool. Whatever floats its boat. ;)

    Was interested in replacing my stock wipers with intermittent wipers. You have any links on how to do it? My toyota dealer said it can't be done.

    Dealer is full of shit; I got the same song and dance...

    Remove steering column casing, remove 2-speedwiper control stalk, replace with variable/intermittent stalk; It's plug and play, but if you don't feel comfortable doing the swap yourself your mechanic can do it :)

    During my Sunday exploration of Sloane Toyota, I came across what I believe to be a true gem; This is a base model 2007 AC 4x4, which I believe was traded in or bought at wholesale and is about to be prepped for the used lot...
