Selling to fund an ongoing Land Cruiser project. I have a detailed log of everything done to this truck/all service/what parts/oils/etc (everything but fuel stops) from 92,000 to its current 216,000 miles that I will turn over to the next owner. If you read this whole post you will see that I take maintenance more than seriously, stock pile parts for all my vehicles, and always go that extra mile toensurereliability &longevity in everything I run. This truck is well sorted and mechanically sound. If I had the time and permission from my better half I would have no problems jumping into it and driving across the country tomorrow!
It's not a show truck or trailer queen, but it has certainly not been abused or wheeled hard either. It has the normal nicks, chips and dings (worst being under drivers door) for a 21 year old truck and the clear coat is coming off tops of doors and especially the top of the topper (was a New Mexico truck before coming to DE and then we moved it to Philly for 4 years and last year to NJ). The interior is in pretty good shape, except one tear in the drivers seat (I use a seat cover now). Everything works as it should, except the e-brake, which barely holds so I always leave it in gear. AC blows cold. All glass intact. No leaks. Frame is solid and I've gone the extra mile to make sure its been strengthened and protected. Body isn't rusted out like so many of these Tacoma's in the northeast. It's a great truck and I really wish I could keep it, but I don't daily drive it, it doesn't work for family trips anymore (now that we have a daughter, before her we slept in the back on weekends), and I have other projects I would like to move the funds over to.

Im willing tonegotiateif you don't want the whole package. Maybe you don't want the tire carrier/Hi-Lift? Maybe you don't want the extra parts/spares? Maybe you don't want the topper? I'd like to say no to trades, but I'm a sucker for that kind of thing, and would be open to entertaining them.
I am available most anytime to answer any questions (call/text/email), take additional/specific photos, or to chat about the truck. You can come look and/or we can take it for a spin. I have 50 photos from yesterday I can share with you; lots of frame shots, more interior, etc. I live in Medford, NJ but work in Philadelphia (right by the Betsy Ross bridge).
