For the early 200s LCs with more than 200k miles, it was the best priced in the whole country by $2k.

This was a sweetheart of a deal, likely not easy to replicate without patience and a lot of luck. Main thing was mileage was so low. I would have expected much closer to 200K miles on that one for that price. But if you see more like this, def pass them on as their are lots of mudders in the wings probably willing to pick one up for that price.Sorry, but you need to dig deeper. Go back through the thread. I just picked up a 2010, 110k, $24k. But hey, if you think that is a deal, go give them your money.
It was an LX he bought - not comparable price-wise.This was a sweetheart of a deal, likely not easy to replicate without patience and a lot of luck. Main thing was mileage was so low.

2013 Land Cruiser with a little under 140k miles sold for $23k down in TN. Clean title, 2 owner truck, no rust on the frame when the sales guy sent me pics but sold the same day to someone local. Definitely think I won’t see that type of deal again.I literally said I didn't pick it up. (edit: well, maybe no literally).
On yours, let's see some photos. Is it the one you mentioned be advertised at $27k? I'd assume it was private party if you moved them from $27k to $24k?
I'd love to see all of the sub $25k listings your seeing for 200s with less than 200k miles.
Or are you including LXs in your statement? I'm talking LCs here.

Exercise or not, I predict most 200s will need the center diff lock/ 4 low actuator in the 200k-300k time frame. Mine was in operable at 120k and the truck was perfectly maintained. Never buy one with out asking or checking.I ended up finally getting a chance to see this one up close. Interior had been well-used by a family. Lots of stains that the poor detail guys couldn't get out. I was digging the all leather steering wheel. That was nice compared to the crappy wood one that's usually on these.
I made the technicians do a block test in front of me, and while they didn't hold it on there as long as I wanted, 5-10 minutes, the blue fluid didn't appear to change color - so I guess that passes. It did lighten up a little, but it certainly didn't change to yellow and didn't really move toward green, either.
During the test drive it drove pretty well, but the center diff lock was super slow to come unlocked. Usually had to reverse the drivetrain to get it out (both under 4HI and 4LO usage). Maybe it just needs to be exercised more, but on one test when I hit the button to lock going down a straight road at like 30 mph, it clunked real bad repeatedly and was enough to make me step away.
As soon as I told my salesperson the news he immediately changed his attitude toward me and called his coworker and said to call the next in line.
If it's someone on here, enjoy your truck. It's really not that bad but I'm picky.

Would have bought two at that price point.2013 Land Cruiser with a little under 140k miles sold for $23k down in TN. Clean title, 2 owner truck, no rust on the frame when the sales guy sent me pics but sold the same day to someone local. Definitely think I won’t see that type of deal again.
I would’ve bought 5…whoever bought it got the steal of a lifetimeWould have bought two at that price point.

Interesting. How did you arrive at these values? What would your values look like with 100k miles?For Used LX570 with 150k miles in fair/good shape. These are not "list price". These are the numbers I used when looking for a LX570 that I would pay, less tax, tag, title. I ended up with a LX570 because the disparity was too great for equal vehicles with different badging and different bells and whistles. This info put together in January 2023.

Long story but pulling data from as many online sources as I could (KBB, NADA, AutoTempest, Auto Trader, Edmunds, etc.) using as similar of detail parameters I could (year, color, mileage, standard/ base model ammenities, average condition). Each gave a little different info and had to "account" for some things fairly. Deducted average markup on list prices. Reported "sold for price" has some lag. A little for "niche market". Averaged. With the array, this should get one close to it or at least have some reasonable confidence in what is fair and what is above and what might come in below.Interesting.
