Hi my name is Rick Ortiz I have a 2002 Toyota sequoia with 350,485 miles on the clock I've owned it since it had 187,335 miles I bought it from a friend in Alabama that could not afford to fix the truck at the time. IT was a mess I went over to there place and it was in the back yard sitting on cinder blocks one flat tire and rim was on the truck it was about sunk in the mud the front drivers side knuckle was completely off the truck the rotors were shot and rusted, calipers frozen the truck had no fluids in the radiator or motor, no break fluid it was a sight from hell and really didn't think I wanted to mess with it but like the sucker I am I told them look it's in ruff ruff shape and I just don't think its going to work for me and I asked them what they wanted for the truck the way it sits. then I heard 1400 said hell no your lucky if you get 600 hundred from me and that is the top offer take it or leave it. well they took the 600 cashed I drove away with a 2002 SR5 Toyota Sequoia three days later after getting tires on the stock rims. putting a complete knuckle assembly some water in the radiator and new battery. it was a bad move since the truck had no breaks what's so ever and the drive home was a nightmare but those days are gone. on to bigger and better problems. I will post some pictures of my sequoia as soon as I find my sd card with all my pics of her on them.
