    Hello all!
    I've owned a 96 4runner for the last 13 years as a daily driver and it's time I've decided to switch over to the dirty side. The TRD sport is the best lookin (pro outside my price range) but I realize I'll eventually use it for off-roading for future hobby- I plan on keeping it. So I'm now looking for a TRD off road...preferably cement:sadviolin:I've found one with some mods and need your advice fellow turds:burp: 2018 22K miles $33k - its listed as Off Road but missing the sticker?? it was also a leased vehicle with 1 owner.
    Jump on it or wait for a used 2020 for power seat for around $35k?

    Check the vin # online and you can find out if it is a trd or. Also if it’s a 2018, where is the tss sensor on the grill? Is it that uncovered square?

    It looks like it still has stock suspension, so it likely has spacers. You’re going to want to replace them if it does. TSS is in the grill. And look inside to see if it has the diff lock and multi terrain select and crawl control over the center overhead. Is this one 4x4?

    Harbor freight winch, junk! Pass on it , who knows what other junk is on that truck, and how well it was maintained. Over priced too.

    I'd wait considering the current world economics. Dealerships are hella thirsty right now for a sale. If you can wait until fall, they will have end of year clear out. I bought my '19 DCLB OR Cement out the door for $37K.

    No pictures of center overhead due to VIN confirming its a sr5- son of a winch!
    Dealers are selling fast even though low inventory coming in- I went the other day and the sport I test drive sold right after I left. I’ll keep my eyes open and maybe by then more used 2020s will be traded in. Thanks all
