Hi Folks!
Our beloved 1993 Land Cruiser just passed the 200,000 mile mark, and while it was at the Toyota dealer for some minor work, I spotted a very, very clean 2000 Cruiser with about 60,000 at a reasonable price: $29,000.
The dealer has offered $5,000 for mine, also a reasonable figure.
The 1993 is in very good, but not excellent condition, it has a number of minor blemishes outside and in from driver training six kids, towing campers, towing boats, hauling dogs and generally being an amazing work horse. The hood is beginning to rust under the front end, and the engine is leaking oil at a significant rate.
Two questions:
1. How many miles can I reasonable expect to get before having to do a major overhaul on the engine or transmission?
2. Would you keep or trade the 1993?
Thanks!
Dave
