Selling the Tundra?

[sentient schmoo]

I've been toying with the idea of selling my 02 Tundra. 180k miles, just replaced timing belt, water pump replaced two months ago and transmission fluid change is happening this week - brand new set of tires, minimal rust - cosmetically not a damn thing wrong except for very light wear and tear and a dent in the gate previous owner lovingly created. Just crawled under it last week to replace left bank O2 sensors.
Anything else I should fix up before trying to ditch it before first snow fall?

why are u selling it ?


U can still buy New OEM floor mats carpet for it , get a set from the dealer or on Ebay

if u cant find tundra , Buy SEQUOIA ones

that will make it look and smell like a new car inside

I have brand new after market rubber mats. Because my yard is a mud pit. I just cleaned it out inside the other day, no stains anywhere. I kept it nice.

Nothing wrong with it; not ditching it for that reason. It's best I find something more fuel efficient and maybe a little more interior space. I realize now access cab was fine for kid and two dogs but damn, it was kinda cramped. I have a trailer so my odd landscaping jobs can still be accomplished.

that looks mint, might as well try to post it up in the classified section and sell it to a mud member that may need a truck

Less than 12 hours and I think it has a buyer.

I'll post it here in a bit if this guy doesn't take it.

clean trucks with that kind of mileage are hard to come by, if he passes it up hes an idiot

Someone hold me while I weep, please

Mah baby sold two days ago.

What are your plans for a replacement?

I do a ton of driving and now have a school drop off aged child so my buddy I worked for is throwing a new engine in a RAV4 4WD. I will definitely miss larger vehicles with V8 engines but I ain't mad especially for the price we agreed on. I'll be saving a ton on fuel costs.

I can still load 3 dogs and enough gear to get out in the woods on a moment's notice so it works for me!

 

[vpatsears]

RAV4, good choice!

RAV4, good choice!

I was eyeballing one he had previously, a 5 speed - but he was still too attached.

The MR2 specialist that drives (drove) the RAV4 daily. Love it.

 

[vpatsears]

A 5-speed would be sweet!

Yeah, I should have jumped on it. They're usually overpriced.

This aged so poorly, Bryan.

omg @mingles bumped this thread and I just read through it.

the ****in' mileage the RAV4 has gotten - just about 100k in less than 5 years

hilarious! I really had no idea how much I would use and abuse this vehicle.

"I can still take it camping!" hell yeah you can bitch, you took it wheeling, too - got stuck less than the 60 series with lockers (we will thank driving ability or lack thereof on their part, though)

"I can fit 3 dogs!" Try 5 dogs and some cats, 2 opossums, 4 bears, etc -

aww man I love Trucklet
