After being interested in 100 series for some years, but being discouraged by their prices, I got a 2001 4runner a few months ago and the thing has been great. I mostly gave up on my quest for a cruiser... until the other day I saw a 2002 200k mile southern owned, rust-free, one-owner for sale in my local area, for what I thought was a great price. Without a second thought, I contacted the seller and bought the truck within a few hours for $9200. Problem is, now that I've come down off the high from the initial purchase, I'm realizing that this thing might end up costing more than I originally anticipated. It needs a new timing belt, tires, work on the interior, new head unit, and some general TLC.
Now the question is, do I keep the cheap and solid 4runner and unload the money-pit LC, or do I get my money out of the 4runner to put it into the LC?
I like the cruiser, and I think it'd be cooler and longer-lasting than the 4runner, but is every dollar I put into this thing just burned, or could it be considered anything other than the worlds worst investment?
Any insight are appreciated.
