95 cruiser advice please?

[MSK79]

Hello Gentlemen and ladies,

I know this isnt a tech question but i hope you guys can still help. I troll and sometimes post in the fj60 tech. Not so much lately since i started driving a truck.
Here is my situation. Wife, 4 kids, 3 dogs. Wife needs something with 3rd row seating that she can get around in the snow with. I was thinking about another cruiser just a little newer than the 60. She found a 95, 150k miles, 6 cylinder for $5,995. I have not yet talked to the guys selling it yet but plan to on monday. Any advice you can give me on this year cruiser, frequent problems/issues. Anything special I should look for when checking it out.. Would you guys recomend it for my situation?

Thanks all and Happy Trails!

Mike

I would recommend the 80 series forum(unless it is truly a 90 series your wife has found which would be an extremely rare find in the US)

Thanks guys, it was already sold when I called. We found a 2003 Tahoe in excellent condition for a great price and will be picking it up today. I have always been a Chevy fan also so I'm stoked about this one. I have my fj60 and the wife has her Tahoe and is happy. Happy wife, happy life. Lol
