Hey there! - From NY

Hello Everyone,
I have been a Toyota fan for the last 10ish years since I picked up my 3rd Gen 4Runner. I live in NY and its getting a bit crusty no matter how often I keep it painted. This past Sunday I got wicked lucky and landed an 05 Tundra Double cab with only 21,000 miles!! The price was right and more importantly the frame and body have zero rust. I still love my 4Runner but unfortunately I have to let it go in order to recoup some of the funds I had to use on the Tundra. I always had a lot of plans for the 4Runner but never ended up doing much to it. I will be looking for a subtle lift and some wheels and tires for the Tundra very soon to make it stand out. Looking forward to learning new things here!

 

Welcome neighbor.
What part of NY?

 

Between Rochester and Syracuse

 

Welcome from Nevada

 

4 hours northwest of me.

 

Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)!

 

Welcome and greetings from Minnesota. I sold my 2000 4Runner to buy my Tundra. Mine was rust free with 165,000 miles. Big change!

 

Welcome

 

Seriously no pictures of this truck?

 

Sorry guys! Here you go! Been trying to clean it up the past few days. My biggest issue with the truck is just a lot of scratches in the paint. Apparently the guy mainly used it to haul brush and stuff around his property.

 

Damn man , that is sweet !

 

How much did this gem cost you!

 

that thing is clean! Welcome from the Adirondacks of NY

 

I highly recommend that you charge the timing belt right away. Even though the miles are low, the belts don't age all that well.

 

Where in the ADK's? Have a place in Lake Luzerne.

 

Welcome from NC

 

I work in Queensbury, about 25min away from there

 

I stole it for $17,000!

It was a death in the family / need money situation.

 

Yeah you did, well done sir!

 

Welcome from So Cal

 

Wow, I love clean older trucks. Maybe the scratches will buff out?

A comment on the current state of affairs, it's so frustrating to me that $17K is considered a streal for a 17 year old truck.

 

I know right? Its fuckin crazy. The last two years have been an absolute shit show, pretty sad really. I was only wanting to spend like 10-13k at most and was actually all lined up to drive 7 hours one way to Delaware to pick up a truck with 115k on the clock (also very clean). Saw this the night before and called my Dad and was like we HAVE to stop to check this thing out. I already had enough cash out and all prepped for the 14 hour trip... thanks god it turned into a 7 hour trip lol. I planned on getting the Delaware truck a few days earlier as well but plans fell through so I feel like this truck was just meant to be mine! the guy no joke had 5 calls about it when we were looking at the truck. Luckily we were the first to get there. Left the house at 330 am lol.
