So I call toyota and wanted them to do a recall. So long story short they are going to call me and want to back back the 1988 land cruiser 218xxx miles on it. what is a good price for it? and what would you take?

This happened with another member. @FJmoneypit

Ahhh to the crusher it goes.
Toyota REALLY wants these old cruisers off the road. I guess they are ashamed of them or something. Or there is a liability of some sort.

If it's for the fuel tank recall, likely cheaper to start buying them back then keep making a few tanks and paying to install them.

I'll bet there are list members that would be willing to buy your rig, rather than see it go to the crusher....I would. Good luck with your decision. Let us know what Toyota is going to give you and give us the chance to SAVE her.

Too nice to be crushed. Offer it up for sale here or CL. Toyota doesn't care about old Cruisers, just check out the thread listing the parts inventory that's disappearing for the 60 series.

Post some more info. More pics! The one pic looks nice and I'd say that you could get much more on a private sale than the dealership.

If I had to actually watch my 60 die in a crusher, I know I would cry.

sell it for parts! help other cruisers extend there life

Recycle, not 'buy back' ...

Bull**** lawyer up...

 

[cruiserpilot]

So what? You don't like the truck any more? Sell it to someone who wants it. It's not a newer throwaway car.
If Toyota buys it, what do you think they'll do with it? If it were my truck, I'd just pay to fix the tank.

 

[dbleon]

Get um to pay msrp dealer rate for the tank recall to you in cash and tell them to f'off. They are definately hard balling you to avoid having to do the recall.

Take note purists...

Do we know for certain it's the tank issue? Has your tank been replaced with recall fix?

OP made a separate post about losing 4 quarts oil, ? Rear main bearing...
Salvage / recycle it.
Like pets, some need rescue.

Don't sell it back. Make them make the fuel tank. They have the money.

When I called about the tank recall and no supply issue recently they also offered a buy back, and after I told them no, they then told me to look for an aftermarket tank.

Did they offer to pay? If so, may be time for a long range tank?

Before anyone else says it. I'll take the mudflaps off your hands.

Hahaha, no way. More of like "You're SOL with us then, so go explore options on your own dime and time."
