Should I trade?

[DaMaGe ZWK]

So Ive had my 4 wheeler for sale for a while... Guess nobody really is wanting one right now cause its not hunting season anymore... but anyway I had a offer for a truck and want to know what you think... One Ebay my 4wheeler is going from around $3500 to $4000... I would be willing to take $3500 for it but would it be easier to trade for this truck and sell the truck for $3500? Some details on the truck are 1992 v-6 5spd 4x4. Tires are about 60%. It runs and drives very good. It's a decent looking truck. It does have normal issues for age - paints a little faded. Drivers side seat needs a cover. Rear bumpers been "used" around trailer ball. It is showing just over 200k, but was told from the owner that the current motor has about 80k on it now. 4x4 works good as well as heat and a/c - as does everything else. My 4wheeler is a 2004 Honda Foreman with 429 miles on it, runs like new...

Here are the pics of the truck and the 4wheeler...

the 3.0 v6 is one of toyotas worse motors...alot of people swap in the newer 3.4.. and i dont really see that truck selling for 3500

Clean retail is $3500 and you might luck up and find a buyer.. honestly it'd sell quicker than the ATV.

Ok, my 2 cents from IAs official redneck and Toyota Guru. (I just sold my 3rd 4x4 Lifted Yota)

Ok first off, thats a pickup/Hilux. Very very very durable truck. Single cab... ehh if your short or not tall your good. 5sd is a plus and the 4x4 is also big plus. The motor... is the worst motor Toyota ever made. They are unreliable, get ****ty mileage and dont last long. Oh and good luck A, working on them B, finding a replacement motor, or C, not waterlocking them.

The truck looks to be in good shape, I dont know the tire size but the V6 will turn em. Thats a nice Bike ya got there, but honestly a truck will sell faster. Especially a Toyota. Some mexican would pick that up from you in a heartbeat. Theres another truck in the Forsale Section, its black very similiar but ext cab. Its my friends truck and he gets like 10 calls a week on it via craigslist.
So it will sell.
Also, the price is about right. Say...3500-4000 is good. Assuming the motor is really 80k on it. However... I would be impressed to where he found a motor with that low miles.

But, anyways. I would personally do it. The truck you can drive around and use for work if you need while selling it. You can park it somewhere and put a forsale sign on it. The Bike, you cant. And especially with gas prices the way they are, people are gonna see Toyota 5spd truck and instantly think good mileage, which is what your going to tell them right? :yes: So boom, its sold before you know it.

Ill probably pop back in this thread sometime but, if you have any random questions about it, PM me.

No problem. Honestly man, if I were do. Have a mechanic look at it real quick to see if its the factory motor or not/been rebuilt in his opinion. If it is, do it. If it aint... I probably wouldnt trade a nice bike like that.
