    Default BadAss Montero on Craigslist AZ

    Thinking about buying this.
    http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/3016992576.html
    1994 Mitsubishi Montero SR 160k miles all service records from Mark Mitsubishi; new timing everything, all new gaskets, water pump and valve job at 130k all preventative maintenance (truck has never jumped time or anything like that)
    35" Toyo A/T tires, 2" lift, rock bumper, rear Air locker, A/C, CD player, 3.5L DOHC V6.

    Has a leaky coolant fitting on the back of the intake (small maybe a half quart in a month) this would need to be repaired before any long distance wheeling expeditions. The truck is driven daily and is reliable (I still wheel this truck) there are a few other minor issues; rear driver side window sometimes doesn't roll down, driverside CV is clicking, rear driverside bumper corner is beat up a bit, passenger door pocket needs new fasteners, one dash vent has a missing adjuster deal to aim the air. probably some other really minor old truck things here and there too.

    This truck has been well loved and has lots of life left in it still but i can't afford driving and maintaining 3 of these.

    I know for sure it belongs to one of the AZ Crew guys on 4x4wire. Just don't recall exactly who. The bumper was made by Toasty though IIRC.

    Yeah that's one of mine, found a good home for it too. you guys may recall me trying to sell it a few other times and then backing out on my buyers but this time it's for real. It is a real nice truck and has been good to us but now that Mrs.Toasty is working and going to school it's not the cheapest thing to commute with. It's being replaced by a Subaru Forester for her daily drive and light duty back road exploring. Practically giving it away to PA_JERO's dad for the discount friend price of $2000 can't beat that with a stick.
