Not sure about these...

What do you guys think?

I saw this one earlier, I was wanting to get a truck but this may go cheap.

I think the custom paint makes this one. that and the half ass job mounting the side steps is at least worth 500 off the price. but it does have lockers. not sure how the salvage title works.

I don't think this guy will get close to 6000. body lift.

I like the last one, 87, auto, fuel injection. good start, a crawl box, strait axle and your good. low miles are always a plus. take the bed off and make one

I might just have to suck it up and get the 80, and buy a trailer to haul crap for my family.
This could be okay. I know the 91-92 are not as good as 93-97, any suggestions.

I think Bubba may have already bought the 2nd set of 4runners. I like the 1st one, low miles and very clean. Put a straight axle under it and wheel it. It already has a nice set of wheels tires. Keep the wheels sell the tires, I have someone who may buy them. Remember Norms did not have a straight axle when he bought it. I have cleaned my garage out so I have plenty of room to work on projects.

I see a straight axle conversion in your future!!!

Rob

I agree with Rob on the Second....clean looking rig. You may be able to buy the winch bumper from Bubba....

I emailed this guy
http://richmond.craigslist.org/car/476381980.html
last week, but had no response. Still looking, I am still thinking the mini truck may be the best fit for me. Keep getting hints from brother and mom about keeping a truck. if you guys see anything sitting on the side of the road, let me know.

Don't be a fool! Buy a real Land Cruiser, not one of these pea shooters!

Oh, wait... am I too late?

Sorry Lance, too late.
If you ever want to part with your 80 let me know (not sure what the good customer discount is though). A man can never have too many vehicles. I am not doing anything to this one for now, maybe never. Still thinking about, at least this gives me something to destroy in the meantime.
