Here's the new DD. I had one in highschool and for the past few months, I have been lusting after one pretty bad. I found this thing in March and it stayed at the dealership the entire time. Either it was meant to be or no one in South Florida wants a real SUV.
It's a 99 Sport with a NP231 transfer case, 4.0 liter with less than 130k miles and here's the kicker, a 5 speed manual. These things are rare and it seems solid - last year for the distributor engine, the best t-case and one really cool trans.
Because the truck has been sitting for so long, I'm looking to perform a basic tune up and then get the tires balanced. After that, plans are for more loud (Banks header, Vibrant exhaust), better tires (Geolanders) and a small budget lift. I'd love to get a pre-runner style bumper too.
