07 4x2 access cab automatic (I'm almost ashamed to say that but I drive a 10 speed at work so enough is enough with the shifting) in silver (I really wanted the dark blue but can't find that unless its a 4x4 with craploads of extras for like $30k). convience package #1, which is power windows/locks/mirrors, AC and cruise control.
sticker is over $20k, invoice is around $19,200, after much dealing and walking out of some dealers only to get call backs I picked it up for $18,475. so thanks to everyone that gave me advice before, I'd say it worked out pretty decently.
so Grattan transport is ready to go. mail the check monday.
here's a stock picture, my brother took his camera with him to work so I couldn't get an actual pic.

Nice truck, I have been looking at the X-runner in my travels...
the 'yota is a SOLID truck.
the salesman I eventually bought it from tried to show me an x-runner when I first when in. I was on my bike and he said "I have something I think you'll really like" I said "yeah its nice but I'm mostly gonna drive it in the winter and those tires (bridgestone potenzas) are horrible in the winter/snow.

Well, except for the trans in the pre '03 Tundras...

Lotsa weight and some GOOD snows should fix that...
It sure was fun to drive though Should pull a good sized trailer and piss off some of the full size truck people.
yup sure is, 2.7L 159HP. it moves pretty good. I haven't got on it at all cause its only got 40 miles on it so far. and I never got on my father's either cause I don't beat on other peoples vehicles unless they tell me I can. suppose to get close to and over 20mpg so I'm happy about that cause my car was awful, probably around 10-12 and it leaked too so I couldn't even fill it up.

You should have no trouble getting 25+ MPG in that truck.
sweet. it'll be cool to go a few hundred miles between fill ups but its gonna cost a crapload to fill that tank. 20 or 21 gallons. it'll be worth it though cause it'll be pretty long between fill up cause I don't drive very far.

I quess it is a matter of perspective. My Excursion will make it over 400 miles on a tank. But then that tank holds 44 gal.
