    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? 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.
