I bought it anyway. Well I didn't have much choice, y'all probably would have paid $1100 for this thing as well. Diesel? Toyota? 5 speed? 4Runner (same as a Surf)? Ya it was a must buy at that price, regardless of random lights on the dash. I have to drive 700 miles through the Rockies in 3 weeks, I am thinking this is my go to vehicle for the trip. My '90 CX has some new Chinese off brand snow tires on it, but really, a diesel Toyota 4x4 is ALWAYS the way to go in these situations!
