That is EXACTLY what I'm looking for. But it would figure it's on the other end of the country. SHUCKS! I would jump on that today if that was at least a few states away. None around here look that good. They are all beat to death.

Hey you guys see this one? Only 16k miles, looks to be in really nice shape, and has the rear locker... No idea about mechanical condition

That's 116k miles, not 16k. And it has a Salvage title. Might be a good truck, but inspect it carefully before buying.
Been thinking about this one, needs about $1200.00 in preventative maintenance like everything else out there.
As ca18_sean mentioned, it is a Caribbean import and rare on the West Coast. They are typified by the Gen 2 body style (even during the 98-2000 model years), monochromatic paint scheme, body colored bumpers, "Dakar" graphics, chrome front grill, steel wheels, and running boards.

Having lived on Long Island, I will say that trucks from the Northeastern US... make that, all vehicles from the Northeastern US are by far the most rotten I have ever seen, and I have been a gearhead my whole life. They use SO MUCH salt and sand on the roads in the winter, it's incredible. The sand used in the mix is large and coarse, obviously due to its function. The salt is also large and coarse. I owned a late '90's 4Runner that I brought to Long Island from San Diego, a California truck from day one, and in just two winters on Long Island, it degraded visibly and rapidly on every surface underneath the truck. I made every effort to spray it off after driving it in the salt/sand mix, even using hot water from our shop garage whenever possible. And as a lifelong car nut, I was always paying attention to other cars... they just rot away up there. I would never touch a vehicle from the Northeast.
Also, I have seen a lot of vehicles being sold here recently in NC as "Southern" vehicles... having spent the majority of their lives up in the Northeast. They buy 'em cheap at auction from up there, and sell 'em here for more. Be forewarned.
