Hey All!

Just purchased a 2006 LX 470 with 257K miles and I absolutely love it. Based off the car fax and how it drives, it seems like it was pretty well taken care of. I have already started going through a lot of threads on what I should be looking out for and about care/maintenance. Happy to be a part of the club!

Nice looking truck ! Did you get any maintenance records with it ?

Looking good, it always seems like the LXs are a bit more taken care of than the LCs... Would be curious how much you paid , good to track where the market is at. Most of these rigs are all coming around the 250k miles now a days but still seem to hold the $12-15+K range

Thank you! The only maintenance records I have are those available from the car fax. Which has around 40 records. The truck spent most of its life in Nevada and the last couple years in NC. I just got the state inspection done and CV axel boots for the front as well as front shock absorbers need to be replaced. I saw a couple threads on here so I am about to go down the rabbit hole for everything. I got techstream working and am going to do the AHC service today.

Yeah it does seem that way for sure! I paid just over 10K for it, with all the fees and temp registration is was 11k flat. The dealer did not know what they had and it looked like it had seen better days cosmetically. Just some basic cleaning, oil change, replaced hood struts and this is ready for the road. The dealer wanted 15k originally then dropped the price 13k. I went in there with my scan tools and told them the AHC is about to go and the steering column will need to be replaced and a few other things to bring down the price .
