Hi all, I'm in the mid-south, not overly close to Atlanta, and I have no affiliation with this dealer. But, they continually pop up on Craigslist and, from what I can tell, they specialize in used Toyotas. They always seem to have a few 100-series in stock at different price points. There...

Sounds like it's documented, or he made up the date 2/20/2015

Dealer says the timing belt and water pump were done 10k miles ago. What do you all think is a fair price for this cruiser? It seems baselined and ready to go. I think 14k is too high, but if I were to make an offer - what number should I go with?

The dealer won't move on price. I'm guessing the price is so high because of the suspension and lift? I'm taking a hard pass on this one unless it comes under 11k.

Anyone care to lend an opinion on this guy? Looks good from I can tell... Seems to be priced slightly out of the market (14k). Link 2002 Toyota Land Cruiser ALL WHEEL DRIVE ! - Wholesale Import Cars Summary: Yes, price is no-haggle 2002 225k miles Nav OME lift package Ball joints and...

Wow, all of this input is great. Looks like base-lining can be expensive depending on condition. At the very least, I would need to budget for new fluids and some other things like brakes, ball joints etc. Has anyone here ever interacted with Fuji Motors near Atlanta (Kennesaw)? They always...

Has anyone experienced cracked or torn leather seats? Is there a community consensus on a brand of seat covers? Are there estimates on costs for basic baselining services, like flushing fluids or brakes/rotors etc. ?

In my mind, the maintenance history and condition would dictate price. I'm trying to find out what condition factors and maintenance items outside of rust formation and timing belt should demand the most attention. As well as gather opinions from people who have purchased 100-series and use them...

How difficult is baselining? I guess I should phrase it as - how expensive is baselining? It feels so counter-intuitive to pay what day are asking for vehicles with such high mileage. Right now I'm talking to a guy on Craigslist who wants 9.5k for a truck with 214k miles. I'm trying to get him...

Mudh8rs, I have been searching local ads for a 100-series. I intend to use it for long recreational road trips across the South. I am drawn to the over-built nature and versatility. My searches have focused on well-maintained cruisers with mileage ranging from 150k-225k from the 1998-2001...

Thanks for the reassurance, haha.

Wow. I do see them in similar condition asking 10k or 11k. I didn't know they were getting them for 6 or 7. Now I don't feel bad offering 8 or 9. Thanks for the insight!

Where are you guys finding these deals?? I must be looking for love in all the wrong places. The front seats look great. Excellent find, especially at that price.

To be honest, I posted here because I'm lukewarm on it and was hoping for reinforcement one way or the other. I've also been eyeing this one: Toyota Land Cruiser V8 4WD Outside of what's in the ad - the only thing non-functional is the CD player. Bilstein shocks have been installed. No Rust...

I am about 6-8 weeks into my search for a Hundy. I've come across one that I think is worth posting here for the community's opinion. 1999 Land Cruiser. 184k miles. Was asking 9900 OBO. Has since come down to 8900 firm. It was listed for 2 weeks at 9900, then dropped for 2 weeks to 8900, taken...
