I really dont want to do this, but I have an 82 BJ42 that is now my wheeler. I need a tow rig, so the FJ must go.
2007 Black Diamond 6MT. One owner. Used as a daily driver with wheeling days every other month. 65K miles mostly due to driving from Pittsburgh to DC every week for 18 months.
$21,000.
Original upgrades include tow package cruise control, power locks, curtain airbags (front and second row) with side seat airbags, 6-disc CD changer, 400W power inverter, roof rack, tow hitch and wiring harness, security system with motion and proximity sensors.
