$$SOLD$$

I bought this vehicle in May 2013 to accommodate for a growing family. It has served us well over the last few years and now I am looking for a 4 door pickup. I have maintained it myself since its purchase and have never been let down or stranded. Legendary toyota reliability with he creature comforts of a lexus. This vehicle has been used to traverse tight trails in Louisiana and the diverse terrain of Arkansas. The paint is not perfect, but cleans up very nice. I replaced the front passenger fender and flare after someone ran into me in a parking lot in 2015. I was also bumped from behind and there are small marks on the rear bumper. Steps and rear mud guards have been removed to eliminate rubbing and damage offroad. The rear most covers of the roof rack were cracked when removing the RTT but I have replacements that have not been installed. I also have a replacement windshield washer reservoir that was cracked and I have not installed due to risk of it being damaged again. You can find the progress of the build up here and a few more pictures.

Mobil 1 synthetic every 5k
Tires rotated every 5k
Drive Shafts lubed every 5k
Diff oil change annually

Modifications:

10" light bar spot pattern
Warn M8000
ARB aluminum engine and transmission skid plates
Iron Man heavy springs and shocks (front)
Metal Tech long travel coils w/ Icon 2.0 long travel shocks (rear)
Toyota 4runner 8 hole wheels to accommodate for larger tires and eliminate rubbing
255/80R17 Cooper ST MAXX tires with 15K and all 4 wearing evenly and measuring at 15/32

The dash is cracked and is eligible for a free replacement from Lexus.
The driver side seat is showing wear but very respectable for age and mileage
Passenger side wheel bearing has started making noise and a vibration can be felt under braking. replacement can be negotiated in selling price.

Price is negotiable and I will post more detailed photos tomorrow once the interior and exterior has been cleaned up. I also have a mombasa RTT and aiming that can be included as well.

Oh man that's sweet, and close.
You're probably looking for something bigger/nicer/newer than a Frontier crew cab with identical mileage and more trail rash right?.

Hah. I'm looking at newer vehicles with a little bigger back seat. Thanks for the compliments!

Interior pics? When was the timing belt done? Curious why you didn't get the dash replaced if it's eligible for replacement?

I'll post more/recent pics tomorrow when I get it cleaned up.
I haven't replaced the dash because there isn't a dealer where I live. 2 hours away north or south.
Timing belt was completed before I purchased at 85K per the Lexus service history

Auto, just how the GX is configured.

Trust me, you are 12 months off me buying this. My kids is getting his permit in January.

I'll take that comment as an official DanKunz endorsement!

See, if you lived in Louisiana we could probably get that permit turned into a d/l. 😂
