North East CraigsList finds

Doubt it will sell for that but the market dictates the pricing. As long as people will pay these high prices, then it will continue to go up. Especially since finding 4x4 trucks is increasingly difficult. I just bought my 2011 with 67k on it for 21k. It has a bunch of upgrades that I had planned on doing anyways so I feel like in this climate I paid a fair price.

 

That's just it, in your particular case the mods were ones you desired so it had that additional value to you.

I'm sure too they started high. My motto in selling is

"shop around as if you're buying what you're selling and see what stuff is asking/selling for..then ask a little more and write a better ad"

 

The big thing with the market now is the chip shortage made these trucks like gold. I just sold my 2020 Tundra and the dealer flat out told me they would list it for 51k with 21k miles on it. I bought it for 49xxx new. Crazy times we live in and I’m glad I found a deal in all this chaos.

 

Somebody on here was recently looking for a 6' bed truck cap - this just popped up in Philly, and its a decent deal. White matches most colors too...

i havent been able to search much but if anyone sees sliders for a 2nd gen please let me know, looking for flat sliders with step plate inserts, as the kids'll use them for steps much more than i'll use them on rocks...

Super ultra rare TRD rock warrior 17" wheels with tires! Wish I could get them!

 

If I had 500 on me right now I’d get them lol… then when my wife found out they were 900 she might kill me

 

Wish I was close enough
That's a steal

 

TW express.. they're about 40 min from me. You pay, ill get them to get started

 

Any deals on TIG welders? I need one to build a wedge camper. Deals on wedge campers would be good too so I don’t have to build one.

 

GFC can get you a camper in 3 months!

 

I saw that. They have a bunch of robots or something. It's tempting for sure. I think I can make one for under $2k even with buying a TIG welder. Still trying to decide which way to go...Buy a GFC or save $4k while torturing myself. I like to punish myself so the 2nd option is probably what I'll do.

 

Can you do it with aluminum brazing?

 

Not as strong as a weld.

 

Haha true. But I don’t know how to TIG weld aluminum so my welds probably won’t be any better than brazing.

 

Im sure theres tons of guys on here more knowledgeable than me about it, but I think aluminum requires a certain type of TIG machine. Possibly a step above the cheap entry level you were looking for.

 

Just need AC for aluminum, but most TIG machines you get these days will be AC/DC. Even the cheap ones are inverter AC/DC machines. Get some LaYZr electrodes and you're on easy street.
