Reason For Sale:

Why am I selling? We recently received some great news that we will be expecting our 3 rd child.

This is a good surprise however is going to eat into what little time I have.

Plus we need a larger car to haul 3 car seats and big as the FJ 55 is 3 seats is not in the cards.

Truly is a great running cruiser and we will miss.

Gets tons of attention where ever we go.

PPI: Copy of PPI from when I purchased can be sent if interested.

Message me.

Will give you idea of what I purchased.

Photos: I've tried to take all photos of exterior. interior. underside so you have a good understanding of the condition.

The cruiser is very solid and is a head turner.

The new owner will not be disappointed.

Questions Ask I'll be upfront and happy to talk more.
