    That is the one.
    I am surprised he is saying the mpg is that low. I would assume the 2L-TE gets better mileage than that? 18-20 seems low.

    Looks nice and the price does not seem too unreasonable.

    I have read that there can be an issue with the heads cracking on that particular engine but don't know too much of the details.

    Can't believe how low the miles are :eek: . I have read it is really hard to keep high mileage vehicles over in Japan due to stringent testing etc. which I guess would explain that..

    What a fun truck to drive. Has suprisingly more power than I thought. Can't wait to take it wheeling out in the Desert.
    Here is a shot after I washed and waxed it. :D
