    44k original miles one owner

    traded in to a Toyota dealer a day before i made an offer(had to move quick) and was accepted at a very reasonable price and excellent trade value on my 2021 Rav.

    thrilled with this find. Frame in mint condition, entire truck is mint as well.


    Original plan was to move into the 4th generation until the reality of the price tag set in.

    Odds are pretty good that 2nd gen will still be on the road after many early/new 4th gens are retired.

    You can easily drive that truck for the next 20 years if you want, just keep up on the maintenance stuff.

    Being in NY keep an eye on your frame, I heard you guys use some nasty stuff on your roads in the winter.
