    My first Tacoma. I bought a Tundra brand new in 1999 and loved it. Sold it in '06 and have wanted another truck ever since. My wife found this 1998 with a shell, impeccable records, and very clean, at her work. So we bought it for $2500! 1ust the price we needed when I don't have a job.
    Details:
    195,000 miles (not a typo)
    Averaging 21 mpg
    Automatic (wanted a 5 speed but this was too clean to pass up)
    Stockton camper shell with front glass
    Original owner added the clock in 1998 for $43
    Stereo with Bluetooth
    Audiovox cruise control ( I just added)

    Just came back from two trips pulling a #2500 trailer to Denver! She did good. Aspen pass was a sweat (10,600 feet!) but we got over it and the trip went great. The best part? No oil consumption! I could not believe it.

    Here is a cell phone pic. Thanks!
