Its prolly best that its not 4x4 though. Having that much lift would wreak havoc on your front end 4wd components I would think. Plus, these trucks are too heavy for any offroading that would require 12 inches of lift. If it was gonna be a street queen and he knew that from the start, I would have purchased a 4x2 as well. Just gives you more $$$ to spend on the rims and tires... lol
I don't care if it were 4x4, I still wouldn't want it. Maybe if I owned a 4x4 shop it would make sense to advertise for my bussiness, but other than that. That is a waste of a nice truck.

how is it a "waste of a nice truck"? I think it looks sweet. He got it for show, not to off-road with.

HOLLLYY!!! look at the size of that spacer!!! LOL biggest spacer I have ever seen. I don't under stand why he wouldn't pay 1400$ for new coilovers after dropping all that money into that lift
I have to agree. That is a great looking truck. My thinking is he is selling it because the project is complete, he is bored with it, time for something else.

That would be my guess as well. He mentioned getting a new Sequoia and doing the same thing to it. Its just like restoring cars. Once your finished, you got to get rid of it and start over. Its the process of watching it grow that is fun. Of course, he prolly just had somebody install the lift anyway, so that part wont pertain to him.
I wouldn't think that truck would be show quality though. Its doesnt have enough accessories or modifications that make it stand out. Its a stock truck with a lift. Thats it. Nothing unique.
I like the truck and would be a good head turner.... just not functional for what most people need.... but then again, most trucks with 6" arent either.... haha...
Dont bash, just being honest... I have 3 inches with stock tires on mine and I can barely get in the damn thing... haha
Oh, I agree, it is far lift than I would want. For what I plan to do with mine when I get home that would be nonsensical. I would never want one that big.

Is it a 2wd? I've read the description 3 times and all I can find is this info "Active Traction Control (A-TRAC) on 4WDV8". The interior pics is too small for me to tell and there is no 4x4 badge... so I guess you guys are right. But, it's still a sick truck! Although it's not for me, I love it and there is no doubt I would stop and explore the beast in person. I give it a . Thanks for sharing.
