    Well, i just spent the last 22 hours curled up in a little ball in the corner crying like a baby..

    Now i'm going to go get something to eat.
    Then it's back on the prowl for a good deal.

    Let me know if you guys find anything else! I'll be in North Myrtle Beach area this weekend.

    Thanks,
    Flashy

    Awesome finds dude. I know somebody that would be all over that Comanche lol.. Showed my wife and she was like "Uh, no.. i gotta ride in that thing".. women don't know true beauty :/

    I like that 2nd one you posted. I may actually have to go check that out...

    #3 looks crazy awesome lol... I have little to know mechanical skills though. I'm kind of scared to buy something this old. Best way to learn is to dive in though i guess right?

    #6, i actually really like this thing.. 0.o... Would be fun to fix up the inside too..

    The one in your last post is wicked sweet...

    Thanks for taking the time to find/list these things for me.. I'm actually really interested in that comanche..

Good luck man hope you find something perfect for you. And that post about pirate 4x4 defintley check that out, those things typically are crazy bad ass 4x4 machines, and they can be expensive but if its worth it for any where up to 12k it will be CRAZY and AMAZING!!!

    Definitely. I'd still choose a 4runner over an Xterra but there is certainly nothing wrong with an X. A decent amount of aftermarket parts, they're solid vehicles. This is the supercharged one (factory) so it'll be thirsty.

    Hah! Yeah i saw that. Pretty funny.

    Okay cool, i'll add that to my search..

    I did call the guy on the Comanche and he said someone was coming out to trade him a vehichle for it. That sucks :/

    Nothing else really speaking to me at the moment. I'm just going to keep riding the wave til something lands in my lap :(

    I think i've decided to pretty much just wait for now. Going to pay down my current truck some more and just wait til that perfect deal shows up.

    Thanks to all of you for the thoughts and suggestions!
