I'm going to have a look at this tomorrow. I don't know much about Toyota's.

Is 65K a lot of miles, or is it barely broken in?

Anything in particular that I should look for or be aware of?

Any tips would be appreciated !!

Thanks

For some reason I actually like those things. As far as milage goes, being 3 years old, you're talking 22,000 a year which boils down to about 65 miles a day. That's a lot of oil changes. If it is highway miles, it shouldn't be too bad. Make sure the CV boots are in good shape. Every car I've bought with over 50,000 (including my 3500) has had a torn boot. I'd actually check the entire driveline over for things like that. But the price doesn't sound too bad. Here's the NADA on the base model of that with the miles: http://www.nadaguides.com/usedcars.a...2601&da=-1

Well, I've already told him not to waste my time and that I'm only looking to spend 8K. He said Ok, come on over, so I guess that's the best offer he's had.

yeah, i too have always dug these things. When time permits and I have the coin, I'd LOVE to chop it !!

Hell yeah. The amount you'd save in fuel would almost fund that project!

chick mobile my A$$! Mayfair is trying to offset the cost of fuel. Wish I could afford one. I recently bought an oldDeville that gets about 22mpg so that I wouldn't tear up my truck on the way to work each day through the city. Not my style, but saves wear and tear on my rig!
