that 4runner trd pro is like 70k lol

i love them to death but 70k is pretty rich

Love the 4runner, wish they weren't so expensive or I'd have picked one up 2 years ago instead of my truck!

95+ % Landcruiser Prado chassis is a big reason for the cost, you want a good build quality that costs more especially now a-days

Recently traded my 3rd gen Tacoma for a 5th gen T4R.

Why the switch? The t4r was my preferred vehicle, but the price difference was a little more than I could stomach.

Good to know I didnt know the GC's ever got an OM variant, I thought they didnt start to offer those until after the Fiat thing and started to source them from Italy

Find a 08 CRD grand Cherokee. I actually just bought one recently. Unlike the liberty and the new GC, 07-08 Got a Mercedes om642, which is a proven engine used in quite a few vehicles.

I'm getting 22 mixed, 26 highway with mine. I say try to find an 08 because it got a LOT of modern updates compared to the 07. It's equipped with most of the features you find today.

Shoot. Well thats good to know. Time to do some more digging. Thanks

you cant, swaps cost money and diesel is Icky in the us. You have 5 options, GMT400 2/4 door Yukon/Tahoe or burb with a 6.5, and Excursion with a 7.3 or 6.0, Jeep Liberty with some varriant of an OM in it that was plagued with problems or a Current Gen Grand Cherokee or Liberty with some Italian build marine diesel in it. Or the even more expensive option import a Diesel Powered Yota......

Where can a man get a reasonably priced diesel SUV/truck here in the states? Interested in it for the economy, not the torque so all those silly 7.3L fords are out of my scope

Current thought is an om617 swapped yota since there seems to be the most support/parts for that here but idk. Someone school me on some diesel/trail running tech

Not mine, I’ve been thinking about getting one as a haul vehicle. I currently have an f150 but it may need rust repair in a year or two.

[psmura]

Was this your ad?? The listing has since been deleted...

Price seems okay, would have to take a look at the rust and the rust repairs.

What do you guys think of this? Good buy? Asking $3,300
