Thanks for the complements!

I have to say that finding the 4runner was pure luck.

I had almost given up on finding a good 2nd gen in "respectable" condition here in LV.

Most 4runners around here are trashed beyond beilef and have tons of miles.

I found this runner off craigslist and it honestly did not a very good description and pretty
poor camera phone pictures.

The only description was something like " 93 4Runner, you won't find another this nice in Vegas, $4300obo"

At first I almost passed on it due to the price, but figured hey.. if I am willing to go look at the other
piles of junk for less why not just find out some info on it.

When I called the owner, he told me that he did not understand why no one was calling, he
had it up for about 2 weeks and i was the ONLY ONE to call.

He just moved from socal and just needed to downsize to a good D.D. econobox.

I told him that it was likely the price as most people don't have 4k cash to spend.

Anyways, long story short.. after a very brief phone chat, I met him and purchased it on the spot!

It may have been a tad high, but for the condition and all history, papers and with a toyota warranty on the motor
it was more than worth it in my book. :king:
