URGENT! Should I buy It? SUPERCHARGED

FOund a deal today. Looking for a 3rd gen now for awhile. Seems ok from a reputable dealer. Im just concerned with neglect. I dont like the aftermarket additions done to the vehicle. (exhaust stickers, gauge, stereo, pedals). What do you think? GOod Price? 2002 4x4 auto $11,495 100k miles. Here is the link. Please tell me what you think!

Looks nice! Stickers and whatnot are easily removed. Scoop hood with a s/c is the best part!

Looks tasty to me. I'm not the best with American prices, ours are always higher in Canada so seems like a smoking deal to me. But truck-wise it looks pretty sweet, I'd just get a carfax for it and if it's clean I'd be all over it!

Makes me sad to think my 02 is with in that price range. See if there is any way to get the service records. Seems like 100k is a lot of mile on the SC, see if they know if its been rebuilt. (Just some thoughts)

Does it have a 7th injector? If not, I'd be a little worried about the health of the engine. I'd like it better if it didn't have the SCer, if it doesn't have fuel mods like the TRD 7th injector or URD fuel mods. The price of SUVs has really dropped in the last 4-5 months. No one wants to buy one.

Especially at the elevation most of Colorado is at.

i Went there to buy it today. Thought I was looking at the wrong one because the decals were gone. Looked inside, no boost gauge? Opened the hood. No supercharger! So, they took it all off the vehicle. Why/ I have no idea. It was 100% the same one, so I am confused. Also, the tires were bald, and I just didnt get a good feeling. Also, didn like the tasteless mods. Anyhow, it was still priced the same. What do you think happened? Maybe they couldn't sell it since it was supercharged? Someone bought another one and wanted that supercharger? Who knows.
