Thinking about trading my 05 Tacoma for a 09.

genxer36 · 10-22-2008, 02:46 PM

I'm on the fence. Do I move to a new truck or keep mine. I have 97,500 miles on my 05. I wanted to hear opinions.

I may switch from a 05 4x2 DC to a 09 4x2 DC.

Thanks for everyones help!

If you go with the TRD, then you get a backup camera

Khaos · 10-22-2008, 02:50 PM

If you switch, keep those Enekies! I love your wheels.

If you can afford it, go for it. Who doesn't want a new truck? I finally hit 32K miles on my '05 this afternoon, lol.

Thanks.
TRD is a bit pricey for a street truck. But a backup camera would be nice for hooking up my boat.

Oh part of the deal will be keeping the wheels. I told them that. I'm using carsdirect to find me a deal.

Man I wish I had 32k on my truck.

Do it!

WilsonTheDog · 10-22-2008, 03:17 PM

I'd do it but I don't keep vehicles for more than 3 years. This one MIGHT be different but that remains to be seen.

Do you own the 2005 outright?

I owe about $8300

derekabraham · 10-22-2008, 03:37 PM

Maybe go for the TRD Sport if you're planning on keeping it on the street?

ELmx479 · 10-22-2008, 03:42 PM

I'd wait until it's paid off, drive it for one year with no payments.

tacomaman06 · 10-22-2008, 03:44 PM

hell.....if you can afford it, trade for an 09!! they got some pretty sweet new colors!!

By the time it is paid off, I estimate I will have about 160k miles on it.

Whats wrong with that? Shouldn't have a problem putting 200K on it. You can be sure you got your money's worth also.

jrw1965 · 10-22-2008, 03:54 PM

Either way you got a good truck. I say the 09 just to keep it new

tacoskim · 10-22-2008, 04:09 PM
