Is this the 5 speed or the auto?

From the thread he posted looks like it's an auto...

Sorry for the delay guys. Was out of town.
I can get some more shots of the interior this week and post them.
I use it as a daily driver, so it runs pretty well. The truck is an Automatic, Gas Engine and does not have the third row jump seats. Water pump and timing belt were done by the previous owner about 1 1/2 years ago, I will have to check the miles, but I think it's been less than 20,000 miles ago. It does burn a little oil and smokes a bit on start up. I am very confident that the valve guide seals are the culprit. It only uses a little less than 1 quart over 3000-4000 miles. As long as you keep up on it, it will run that way forever. I would wait until I had another issue with the engine before breaking into it and replacing them.
The only other mechanical issue that I am aware of is with the brakes. Once in awhile the brakes will lose pressure...it will still work fine, but the pedal feels like it has no pressure, it just goes further to the floor and stops the truck just fine. Very strange issue, I am thinking it might be the brake booster, but I am not sure. Again, I drive it all the time and once I became aware of it, it does not scare me because I know the brakes work, the first time it happened it startled me, but since then I have not worried about it.
