Looks like too good of a deal from a dealer TBH. Worth looking into for sure

I was thinking the same thing, but going to take a look this afternoon. I'm trading in a Volkswagen when I get my next toyota so it doesn't hurt that it's at a VW dealership!

This one's cheaper and has the locker. http://cosprings.craigslist.org/cto/4094592756.html

I went and looked it over because I thought about buying it. Drives great, runs smooth, looks like it needs a new little gasket on the oil pan bolt. Had a little rust around front window and needs some tires but other than that this is a nice truck. All fluids were full and were clean: no smells, were proper color. Seats were in great shape. No cracks in windows. They had just serviced a wheel bearing, CV axle and tie rod end.

P.S. They dropped the price since I went and looked at it otherwise I would have bought it then. The same day I found a different vehicle and bought it so that's why I didn't buy this one.

Is the price difference worth the 100k mile difference? The dealer one has the locker as well.

Yours for only $18888 or $23888 if you don't act now!!!

Quick... Grab it before the price goes up $5000 in January.

Includes $4000 Old Man Emo kit... LOL!

Mine is the same color, with 20K less miles, has factory wheels and has a stereo... I'll cut you guys a deal... Only $15K, but hurry the price doubles when it turns 30 years old.

What they smoking over there in Glenwood Springs?

I wouldn't buy yours - it probably doesn't have clearance lights above the windshield!

Not sure if you've looked at this truck or not. But two things catch my eye. One is the lack of a TB/WP change. I know Toyota says 90k for the change, but at that price and that age it should have already been done. The other thing is how worn the seat is. That tells me that it was driven very short distances, very often.

My seats is in 1000 times better shape with more miles. Better deals out there I think. I wouldn't be afraid of 100k plus on the mileage if the proper PM has been done.
