ad says its a 4wd on the little description bars. I bookmarked it since its so clean but I'm really looking for something 03+. Would possibly consider an 02 but I'm trying to avoid the tensioner issue years

Yeah, I know it was a little older than what you are looking for but it seems really well taken care of and the mileage is pretty good for the year.

Not trying to sway you one way or another but with your insurance money, if you got that gray 2000, you wouldn't owe anything either. If it was me I would give it a look.
