The Story

I got her just over 2 years ago. The car needs some TLC like a new radiator and valve cover gasket replacement. Since then, I have also rebuilt the starter, the power steering pump, replaced all sorts of hoses, the cap and rotor, and spark plug wires. All Toyota OEM parts from the local dealer. Oil has been changed regularly, tires rotated and aligned, transmission flushed, belts changed, fluids changed and topped up. All of the upgrades were done in the course of the first year that I owned what I now affectionately call her "El Burro" or the donkey, because she is reliably gets me where I need to go every time. The past year I drove up to Dead Horse, Alaska and then all the way down the Pan American highway. I arrived at Ushuaia, Argentina at the beginning of May and drove up to Buenos Aires toward the beginning of June. I really don't want to sell her but it's just not economically feasible for me to drive or ship her back to the States. I am looking to sell her to a likeminded, adventure driven individual who will get as much as I have out of this car.
