    Undercarriage in excellent shape, replaced frame, ZERO rust to include surface, not undercoated, underside of body very clean, 3400 V6 Supercharged, does look like it needs a muffler, possibly a tailpipe. 68 K miles, J[?] manual X fer case, auto transmission, saw no leaks under it. Interior good but not great shape, just normal wear. has receiver hitch.

    Body has a few paint scratches but overall in VG shape with zero rust. SR5 package. Good glass and rubber. A/C works. Had a valve replaced on the emission side as was coding but said that fixed the issue.

    Can snag it for around $9500 if so inclined, worth that? Just has the little jump seats n back.

    Owner has had it 4-5 years, it said it had been in a wreck which is why the frame was replaced but whoever did it did a VG job because I saw zero signs of any damage. Basically a buy and drive vehicle other then a muffler.

    What say ye?

    I'm confused by what you mean by first gen, 3400 LB? Do you mean a 3.4l v6 2003?

    If so, if you can pick it up for $9.5k with only 68,000 miles on it DO IT....assuming it's in as good a shape as it should be with that few miles. That's a killer deal for a low mileage first gen. Mine had about half that many miles on it and it was $17k

    edit: I read too fast and missed the last part about the frame replacement, that explains the low price. Salvage title? I dunno, if it really is in good shape it's still a good deal, if the frame was replaced right I don't think that should really be an issue :notsure: The low price reflects that after all.

    Have you test driven it? When was the supercharger put on, and by who? Make sure when you drive it that the supercharger doesn't have an obnoxious rattle to it, the belts and pulley are good, etc. TRD superchargers can go a long time before they need servicing (90-100k) but you never know how hard it was driven.

    No salvage title, it's clean.
