Well, I didn't last very long in the 06. One thing I was to make clear is that I am trying to be as transparent as possible with the sale. I will probably end up trading in due to the condition but thought I would post in case someone was looking for a lower priced 100, albeit with some warts.
Truck is grey on grey. 135k. Truck is financed (small loan) so I do not have title in hand.
I bought this truck without doing enough due diligence. Truck came out of Puerto Rico (2 owners) and then was shipped to FL. I bought it from the 3rd owner, making me the 4th. It has been in an accident and, when looking closely, you can tell that some body work has been done. I'll list some negatives first and then the positives. Again, I know the truck has problems and I don't want to minimize. Please read my previous posts for more detail.
Rear bumper does not sit 'right'. There is about a 1 inch gap on the passenger side
There are various scrapes and rock chips in paint.
The driver rear taillight is cracked (but functional)
The leather upfront is cracking and needs love
The windshield was replaced at some point. It had leaks on both sides. I took to a professional replacement company and was able to stop the passenger side leak. The driver still leaks slightly. Please see previous posts about the rust that was found and treated under the windshield.
The frame is almost rust free with the exception of a section directly below the brake booster. The booster is seeping fluid and that seems to have caused some surface rust.
All 4 ball joints are crushed and need replacing.
The steering rack boots are shredded and truck needs a new rack.
All of the non pressurized power steering hoses are seeping and need to be replaced.
The speakers are blown and sound system needs work. The DVD and map system is also showing an 'error'
Valve cover gaskets need replacing - slight oil leak (nothing on ground)
All 4 shocks are leaking. Not bad but enough to mention
The positives:
Timing belt done at 118k
new (remanufactured) CVs installed from CVJ Axels
Tires are new
new fan clutch
synthetic oil changes
new TPMS sensors in all 5 wheels
new brakes
AHC serviced and flushed (system works - approx. 10 graduations between L & H)
Nightvision camera fixed and recalibrated
Weather tech mats (front, rear, and cargo)
PFran LED kit installed
Newer radiator (crack on plastic top caused replacement, don't know if truck overheated)
New(er) headrests - took out the old DVD screens for a cleaner look
Truck has been to ACC twice. While they pointed out the flaws, overall it was judged to be a solid platform. Just needs more money and expertise than I am willing or capable of putting in.
Pictures to come tonight. Don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions.
