Technically I’m the 3rd owner but the original owner gave the car to her son who sold it to me. Currently has 160K miles. I’ve owned it since 119K miles (2/2009). Selling to upgrade to a 100 series. I need something for running easy to moderate trails. So before I commit to sliders, etc., I thought I would try to find a new home.

Price is $18K obo. I know this is high but I'm haven't totally decided to sell and this truck is good to go. You just have to add sliders and a rear bumper. I'm sure I'm forgetting misc items but summary of maintenance and mods below.
