I offered 17.5. I wasn't ready to pay 18K for some reason. I actually came across a 100 today in excellent shape for 19500. Drove it and thoroughly looked in over. Much different truck than the 80. V8 was nice and it had the rear locker. I know it has the IFS but I was taken back by how...

Thanks for all the advice guys. The truck was white and had the 40th carpets and badges. All the lockers worked and I can only guess they were toyota lockers because of the electrical igniition I heard in the cabin similar to the other truck I tested. Either way the guy didn't take my offer...

Rick, the one in Bristol was not nearly as clean. Also they didn't take my offer so it never even saw shop where my friends friend could take a look. I'm going to make an offer this morning. I'll let you guys know what happens. If it turns out well I'll be looking for some trails in about...

Rick, Thanks for the offer! Actually the truck is in Bristol at a place called Stephen's Auto Mall. They are supposed to send it through a safety inspection on monday (hopefully). A friends friend works in the toyota service department so he's supposed to take a look at it when it gets in...

Hey everybody. I'm new to the forum and looking for help. I'm in the process of buying a second vehicle and looking at a mid 90's cruiser. I know Toyotas are reliable and the cruiser is durable but I would end up picking one up with over 100K miles. Can someone describe the longevity of the...
