Toyota reliability and plenty of room for less than you think! NO RESERVE!! If you need plenty of room and a reliable vehicle but don't have a lot of money then this is the SUV for you! MECHANICALThis 2002 Sequoia has high miles but I cannot overstate how well it drives. I bought it about 2 months ago at auction and had it checked out by my mechanic the day I bought it. He installed a new timing belt kit (including pulleys, belt, etc), water pump, battery, serpentine belt, 2 oxygen sensors and front and rear brake pads and rotors. He said these were the only items he could find wrong with it. No oil or other fluid leaks. I've driven it several times a week since then and have tried to find something wrong with how it drives/runs and cannot. I would encourage you to have your mechanic check it out. EXTERIORThe exterior is in average condition. The paint has a few chips around the exterior but no body damage except for 2 small "slits" in the rear bumper, right above the towing hitch. They are about 2 inches long and about 1/4 inch wide. All body panels appear to be original and it even comes with running boards and spoiler. The clear coat is fading some. It stills looks good, as is, but if the buyer wanted to pay $1000 or so for a new paint job then it would look brand new. All lights, turn signals, etc have been tested and worked at that time. The only exterior item that is not currently working are the power side mirrors. I believe it is just a fuse and will try to correct, but until further notice please assume it is not working. Mirrors can be adjusted by hand, though. INTERIORThe interior is in good condition, except for 2 items. One of the seams in the seat of the front driver and passenger seat is coming loose. I have included a picture of both. The seats don't have any other holes or tears but they are, somewhat, faded and do show their age. Only other issue is on the 2nd row of seats- the seat belts are dirty but I am going to try to clean them. Other than these two items, the interior is free of tears, holes or large scratches. There is general wear and fading that you would expect from a 12 year old vehicle but it is definitely in good enough condition to use as is. I have tried to describe as accurately as possible the exact condition of this vehicle. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I bought this vehicle with the plan to keep it but my wife wants something slightly smaller which is the only reason I'm selling it. I spent more on the mechanical upgrades than I normally would have so I will probably lose money on the sale but my loss is your gain. I have it listed locally so I will end the auction if it sells before the end of the auction. If not, the last bidder wins or BUY IT NOW for less than $5K. Kelley Blue Book private party sale value in FAIR condition is $5855 and GOOD condition is $6459 so, either way, the buyer is going to get a great deal. On Jul-29-14 at 09:10:57 PDT, seller added the following information: UPDATESeats- I found an upholstery repair shop that will repair the seams on the front two seats for $100 but they can't get to it until Friday. I'll update with pictures by Friday evening. They also might be able to recondition the leather as well. I'll post another update with any additional information/pictures as soon as I can. Price- Since I do have it for sale, locally and outside of eBay, if you would like to make an offer as a Buy It Now sale then just send me a message with your offer if you would like to buy it before the auction ends. I can set up a private listing and do it as a Buy It Now. Once the deposit has been paid then I will end this auction listing. Will consider REASONABLE offers.
