2008, I owner, relative of the dealership owner so all maintenance done. 68,500 miles.

Immaculate outside, inside leather is kind of dirty and steering wheel is scratched up.

36,500 is best I can get them to.

What's everyone's thoughts?

That's a good price. I say go for it.

That's a great price. I saw a very similar one (same year, miles and color) in south Florida and the dealer would not go below $42k. I'd say go for it.

Bought mine 14 months ago for 38 with 60k miles and felt like I got a great deal. This looks like a very nice price.

Awesome. Thanks guys. Assuming they are at least fair with my trade in on Monday, this is the one. This will make us a 100% LandCruiser family. A 40, a 100, and a 200.

First thing I'm going to do is pull the running boards and put on some new tires.

Spent a while searching and reading last night, seems like 285/65/18 is the consensus for a stock height truck?

Check your craigslist for guys offloading their TRD 17 rims and 285/65/17 rims. I see them all the time for about 1K for both. Killer deal and you have the smallest rim that will fit on your LC.

Good tip, but please note that the Toyota recommended tire size for those 17" rims is LT285/70R17E.

HTH

Hope that happens and you join the all LC family...but be willing to walk if they dink with you...there will be others out there all the time. You will either get what you want or you will leave and they will call you later while you may find even one more to your liking...

It's at Van Trow Toyota in Monroe. 36k and change was the price, and they had agreed to detail it and replace the shifter knob. If you are interested call my guy up there, Eddie Floyd, and tell him Andy Martin gave him your number. 318-387-2020
If the truck was for me, and not my wife, I would have bought it. It's a 1 owner car, 68,000 miles, and the owner was a 65 year old, old money rich lady who is the Aunt of a friend of mine. She lives on a river down a gravel road, so there are rock chips on the outside of the car, and they painted the rear bumper (so/so job).
The inside of the car was the issue my wife had. The lady's rings scratched up the steering wheel and gear shifter real bad, as well as all the door handles. Plus, the car was DIRTY because of the gravel road. I have part numbers from CDAN to replace the wheel, door handles, shifter, etc, total was about $1000. Leather was dirty, but in good shape.
Bottom line is the truck needs a full detail, and you have to be willing to accept the dings in the body. Other than that, it was meticulously maintained.
