I've spent hundreds of days out in the field with this truck. Its every bit as described. Super solid, simple, capable, reliable and a great all around vehicle.

This vehicle will be missed but surely the new owner will experience many great travels and experiences.

If the sale falls through I'd be very interested in purchasing. I have a 94 Toyota Pickup and am looking for a 4runner so I can carry more people. Sweet vehicle!
