This a very special rare truck with a one of a kind build that is mechanically sound and reliable. As with any 37 year old classic vehicle, it will require small maintenance continually as it ages. It has never left me stranded in the 5 years Ive had the truck and I still absolutely love driving it around the mountain towns nearby. It has its imperfections and quirks here and there, but is overall a great Mitsubishi Mighty Max. With 4WD, limited slip and torqey turbo power for altitude, it will certainly blow away stock Toyotas of the same era! This is my happy bottom dollar, so price is firm. Please email if interested and thanks for looking!
