Anyone ever seen this truck in mesa

[eleblanc]

Currently at town and country motors in Mesa

anyone ever seen it? Does is have a lift?

Is this a ARB bumer?

 

[murf]

I havent seen it around myself, but yes that is an ARB. It doesnt appear to be lifted in the picture but possibly some torsion bar adjustment for a slight lift....?

NIce tires on it too...

What year, miles?

I might go look at the truck. Ive been watching the adds for 100's for awhile now and it seems to me that they are just not coming up for sale with low mileage which is a bummer. There just arent many for sale periode. I usually look at AZ, CA, NM, CO, UT and there just is not much out there. The other problem I have is I have to find one at a dealership so I can trade my POS BMW in on it. That being said I need a car that will last 3-4 years because I am getting ready to start law school in the fall. So I am not sure how comfy I would be getting a truck with 102 thousand miles on it. I drive typically 25 to 30 thousand miles a year so that would add up quickly on a high mileage rig.

Having spent about 2 months recently looking for a 100, I can empathize. However, the only "low-miles" 100's you're gonna find are gonna be high $, ~2005 or newer, and you're right, they don't come up very often. However, I consider 102K low miles.

And personally, if I was starting law school for the next 4 years, putting 25-30K/yr on it, I'd be looking for a Corolla/Camry/Avalon, not a Cruiser. Keep your 80 for fun, and buy something dependable and CHEAP to run/maintain for daily duties. Unless you're going to law school in AK...

Since i'm looking to import, i've just went through the importation condition and the truck must not have been modified in anyway from original. Only repair and parts replaced. So i have to rule this one out unless i find a front bumper and have someone install it. Then brind the ARB and winch in the truck, if it fits... Might just look for a stock one...

If you guys see one let me know. I don't car about mileage, but i want one that has been very well maintained and clean

Gotmud, you know the truck?

 

[gotmud]

I don't know the truck, I do pass by that dealer on occaision and wouldn't mind looking at it for you. The build sheet was created from the VIN on the dealers web site.

Besides the rear end damage I would pass just because it had been in New Jersey. On a old cruiser I plan on restoring it wouldn't be as big of a deal but on a cruiser I plan on using as a DD I would probably pass on anything from any where then the south west part of the US. I know I passed on a few four years ago when I bought my 100 series. In AZ it doesn't make sense to buy a late model vehicle from any where else when you can find then local. That's why I have to see the carfax. Looking for more than just a damage report.
