It's probably a top dog from the Pentagon...they are probably running out of Humvees in Iraq due to IEDs. Joking.


Nice truck BTW.

Ok.........I'm gonna call SCAM on this one, too. Unless, of course, he has the cash on hand, then sell it. If he does, then he obviously has more money then brains...

dude, its a 16 year old kid that doesnt understand the value of the dollar (which is crap right now!) wait till mommy and daddy are told about this and i bet it falls through, or he and some buddies are planning on jumping you for your wheels!

dude... honestly, you want to sell it if you can get 30k for it, thats a no brainer... think about all those little things you messed up on, with the next runner you get you wont make those mistakes....

besides, 30k for an 02 4runner, i think thats what mine cost brand new!

Well I've got this one built pretty much the way I want it.. except for the clear tail lights... dunno what I was thinking when I put those on. But anyways I'd say your right, once his parents find out they'll take control unless he's some spoiled rotten kid that gets whatever he wants.. Then I'll boost the price up to 35 or maybe 40.. see how bad he really wants it.. haha.

Remember that you are dealing with a minor. Any contract he makes with you wouldn't hold up in court, and you could be screwed by the deal. I would say not to do it unless a parent of his goes through the deal for him (the parent signs the bill of sale and hands you the cash). I just covered this in a business law class, so you got to be careful when dealing with minors and large purchases.
