Perfect adventure vehicle for expedition, overland, off road, 4x4 or four wheeling trips, or simply daily driving (which is what I do with it most of the time). Looking to sell or trade my '97 Toyota Land Cruiser. Very well taken care of. Full lockers - rear, center, and front lockers means that this truck will go anywhere. About 146k miles, I put about 20-50 miles/day on it so mileage may vary over time (photo of mileage at 141k was taken a few months ago). About $10,000 in aftermarket parts and OEM spare parts included with the sale. ARB winch bumper, roof-top tent, canopy, 3" lift, full lockers, CB radio, slide-out rear storage with built-in gas stove. Heavy duty steps for roof access, tons of other features. Extra parts include belts, hoses, axle rebuild kits, radiator, springs, shocks, you name it. NO RUST! Just minor surface oxidation as to be expected in a 20 year old vehicle. No frame rust, no body rust, all brake/fuel lines are rust-free. Drives absolutely straight.Normal wear/tear for a vehicle of this age - scratches and minor dings on body (it's an offroad vehicle after all) but NO damage. Tear in the driver's side seat from wear, which can be easily repaired or covered. Some minor carpet staining which can probably be removed by detailing. Couple nicks on the steering wheel, just general average wear from a 20 year old vehicle. Otherwise, an EXTREMELY solid truck that I wouldn't hesitate to bring anywhere. It's my daily driver and it's never let me down.Price is negotiable, make me an offer! Would also consider trading for a Tahoe or similar SUV, or a 4-door late model pickup.
