Wow. There is only one other rig I have seen I'd sell my left nut for. I would do it in heart beat for this. Wish I could buy it, its even my favorite 55 two tone paint job!!  


Um... I'll trade you my 85 4runner for it.

[htownfire]

You'll regret it. You've got much more with the 55. Don't make me say I told you so!!

[deans87 [OP]]

well my kids miss the 4runner the top off and crusiing down the hills.   its more for them than me.  so that why i would rather trade for a 40 or a 4runner.

[megolfer]

You dont want a 40 for a family rig.  Went to the rubicon this weekend with 2 people in the rig and we were packed to the roof.  It just does not have enough room in it.

[deans87 [OP]]

what i prob do if i got a 40 would get a trailer and use it behind it

[18bravo]

so what are you looking to get for this thing cash out right no trades?

[deans87 [OP]]
