Hey everyone. Just picked up my first 100 series last weekend. My neighbor 4 doors downs from me had this for about 7 years and put about 6,000 miles on it. I've been eyeing it for the past 5 years. I talked to him about it a few years back and he said it wasn't for sale. Just so happened my car (2013 Lexus CT200h) blew the head gasket 3 weeks ago. I started looking for an older GX470, but kept thinking about my neighbor's car. I just knocked on his door and asked if he'd sell it and he said sure. He worked for Toyota for 15 yeas and had bought it from the service manager at a Toyota dealership. All maintenance and service has been done at the dealership with only OEM parts. New brake master cylinder and radiator less than a year ago. Never been off-road and everything on the it works like it did day one. It has the normal wear on the front seat and steering wheel, but other than that and the expected tiny dings here and there, it's pretty much perfect. I love driving this and look forward to years of fun with it!

Oh ok will do. This is my first non-car so I'm in a whole new world with the 4x4 stuff. Loving it so far though!
 
Congratulations! Looks great, but it could look even better…

So… when are you taking the running boards off? 😃
