Ah, to be delusional.
lol I was thinking the Blitzkrieg as well. Maybe its for wheeling in farmers fields and city parks.



Looks like a 13 year old who tried shaving for the first time.


Want to bet which two wires need to be connected to steal the truck. I know what my $20 says.



WTF... is that really a Rhino-Lined head rest??!!



Screw drivetrain lifts, drop it instead.


Stash? I think so.



Awesome super duper windshield mod....err?

Yeah, the louvers on the cluster look like a pain in the ass to drive with.

And the bumpers would have to go too. The rear bumper sits too low and the front one could plow boulders. The paint color is nice, but way too much blingage. SR5 chrome trim is about as far as I'd go. If he was driving around I'd stop him and talk Toyotas, but there isn't 12k of value there.

It's a nice looking truck. but for 12k!? i would pay 6k max. for it but it would have to have a 3.4L, lockers front and rear, maybe a dual t-case and some real mud tires.

12k for a twenty something year old truck, what is this guy smoking and where can i get some lol. I like his so called 9'' of lift...yeah the body is about 9'' higher than it was stock but the drivetrain is just waiting to get taked off by a speed bump. What is with all the reflectors on the back of the truck? Does he really need like six of them? Oh well it is not as bad as some trucks I have seen.

Looks like a cobbled together piece of crap to me. I wouldn't give $2,000 for it. It would take too much work to undo all the stupid stuff that has been done to it.

Exactly. I've seen worse, but in my opinion, it was not done well. Especially that cluster cover thing....I couldn't look at that everyday. I'd buy it for the unmolested parts of the interior....if he was asking about $11500 less...

I apologize, can you ever forgive me?!

Was just doing the daily search through craigslist, ebay, autotrader, and cars.com. Saw this and thought others may enjoy a laugh regardless of the year.

Pull my finger...

I'm really a fan of the plastic Rosary hanging on the fire extinguisher. The wheeling gods made him say 100 Hail Marys and 200 Our Fathers for what he had done to that poor truck.

Well atleast whoever buys it will make back about $1500 at the scrap yard by the time they get done pulling all the excess crap off of it.

Not likely, scrap is down to $10/ton locally.

It WAS $290 ton in July. Now, not so much.
