I have never owned a Prado before but I hear they are good trucks.

Currently looking at this model:

Going to go to the dealer soon to check it out and test drive it. What should I look for?
Thanks

Find out what happened with the front bumper.

Also, that paint is in bad shape. A good detailer can fix it, but it'll cost several hundred. I love black paint when it's clean. But when it's dirty and scratched...

Be sure to look underneath it for rust and possible damange.

Nice that it has new Michelins on it.

Agree with chip9. Paint does not look very good. Best not to buy the first one you look at. Half the fun is checking out different GX's. If you do decide this is THE one, try to get a discount for the paint. The previous owner of my GX was 'not very good at parking' I got an extra $500 off for that. The scuffs don't bother me as the truck goes off road. Get the VIN and check the maintenance history at the Lexus web site.
