    I sold my 98 4Runner SR5 4x4 with 120k miles for $6500 in 2009. I don’t know what’s a good deal anymore

    Not bad, but I wouldn't want the first year of the 4.0

    Look for a V8, unless that 4.0 has history of maintenance including the head gasket.

    Got rid of my '98 4R with 289k miles for 16k.

    I heard they’re asking 7200. :)

    prices are certainly crazy. I saw a photo of a Ford pu priced at 42k with added dealer markup of 30k!

    Got in an accident about 2 weeks ago. Bent the front of the frame. Insurance wants to replace the frame which is a major pain in the ass and takes forever - but they don't think it's worth totaling.
    Just took it by another shop and got a much better feeling from them as far as professionalism and everything else. They think the Tundra is worth totaling so we'll see

    Already found one :spy:
    That's part of the reason I want it totaled. That and the 5+ months repair time
