First of all, I'm not very good at describing things but I can tell you this vehicle is a tank and runs and drives perfectly. Has the rare Differential Locking Hubs. Excellent condition in and out for a 15 yr old truck. Engine, Transmission and 4x4 are as solid as a rock. Always garage kept. Very clean interior. Carpets are super clean. Brand new Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armour snow tires.($850) Has the very rare Differential Locking 4x4. Have never had to have anyone pull me out from being stuck. Just had it to Toyota for its 250,000 mile check up and mechanic said everything is perfect. Religously change oil every 3,000 miles. Power everything including sunroof and leather. Bought the vehicle with 169,000 miles and have driven it since. Has been my main driver for over 8 years without one single problem. (not kidding) I have replaced the battery twice and did a $1000 tuneup on it 2 yrs ago. It seems like it will run forever. Wouldn't be afraid to drive it to Alaska tomorrow. Removable 3rd row seat. Great for hunting or an everyday driver. Two years ago I put on 4 new Toyota shocks. 271,000 miles. Has an alarm system but I never use it. Just had a fresh oil change today. I have tried to take detailed photos so you can realize how nice this Cruiser is. I have never towed any thing with it either. It is truly a fun vehicle to drive. Will always be worth this amount of money no matter how many miles on it. They are truly a Collectors SUV. --Power locks work except for drivers door which you have to lock manually. --Small tear in rear drivers side door vinyl. (see pic) --Some of the clearcoat is coming off of the drivers side front fender. (see pic) --Has some small paint chips on front of hood from normal wear and tear rock chips. Also has a few spots on hood from bird dropping or something. Probably can be buffed out pretty easy. --Seats have NO holes or tears in them. Just normal wear. --Drivers side floor mat has a small hole in it from my heal. NOTE: Last summer we had a hail storm that dented the vehicle and the insurance company wanted to total it out and wanted me to take it to the salvage yard immediately. I told them they were Frickin crazy, so they let me keep the vehicle and I had the vehicle professionally fixed by a licensed Paintless Dent Removal company. They fixed everything but the very top though. (I took the extra $$ and bought brand new tires.) You have to be 6 feet tall or taller to see any dents up there and there are only a few. This vehicle has NEVER been in a wreck though. ONLY HAIL DAMAGE. Do not be afraid of the miles on this Cruiser. I have taken extremely good care of this vehicle and done all of the scheduled maintenance. The Toyota Dealers mechanics said it will last forever. They said this is one of the best vehicles ever built. There was a reason the sticker price for this Cruiser was $54,000 back in 1997. I still have the original window sticker.
