    Greetings TW! I just purchased my neighbor's super clean 2000 SR5 Pre Runner. It belonged to his late father and he has not driven it much in the last five years. Nice upgrades with a moonroof and rear window. The only issue is a power steering belt squeal which I have not looked into, but hopefully, it's a belt adjustment.

    I sold my F150 a few years ago and have regretted it. I have two Land Rover Discovery II's for off-roading, but the new Taco does have the diff lock if I need it. I'll probably put rock rails on it. I should probably install that air deflector
    on the hood, too.

    I paid top dollar, but due to the extremely low mileage, service records and familiarity with my neighbor, I chose not to haggle too much. There is nothing else out there in the same price range with the low mileage and features. I just came off a bad experience with a "free" 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. My brother-in-law gave it to me three years ago and I have put $7k into it only to have the transmission go out.
