Joining the club so to speak in a different section than I thought (been wanting a 60) but hey I love our 100 series. Bought it for my wife as a daily driver and a trip vehicle. Probably very little off road use until it is mine.

137k a few dings but in very good condition. I had a Toyota dealership inspect it and everything checked out except for the hood struts and I need tires.

Going to upgrade the radio to a double din or something.

Welcome to the club. I bought mine this spring and have already learned a couple of hard (read: expensive) lessons.
1. Make sure that you have the master keys.
2. Make absolutely certain that maintenance has been routinely pulled on the brakes. They must be flushed every 2 years or so or you will end up replacing the master cylinder to the tune of $3200 or so dollars. Ask me how I know. Mines failed as I was driving from Mass. to North Dakota and so I spent 2 expensive days in lovely Maumee, OH. This was after I'd flushed the system twice, but the damage had already been done.
3. The front wheel bearing was loose :mad: so the clip had fallen off one axle which beat up the axle end and had to be replaced. $1200 for both.
Love the truck but it's different enough from my 300,000 mile 80 that it's a new learning experience.

:cheers: Ned
