Alpine 500w amp to Boston G1 10" sub in rear seat center console enclosure
Gibson Exhaust
Downey headers
Deckplate mod
URD 7th inj kit
TRD Supercharger w/ 2.1" high boost pulley


how much would you be asking for this if it was your truck you were thinking of selling??

 

how many miles?

 

160k. still purs like a kittten though.

 

Pic of the truck is what is going to make or break it.

Mods and all don't really mean to much. If you are lucky you will get 1/3 of what you spent in mods back. The trucks selling power has been hurt drastically because you made it yours. So you are asking for someone to buy a truck that has your taste. Which isn't very easy to find. You would be better off putting it back to stock and sell your mods. You will have a better chance selling the truck that way for a better price.

 

well since its purrs n all id say maybe 10k

 

Doubtful. It's over 10 years old..... plus it's been heavily modded.

 

yeah, I know that, dont got any pics on my lap top right now, I wax it 2x per month though, it shines very nice, and mods do mean something,,,,, if its some one like all of us looking at buying it I put it up on craigslist, but damn ppl from el paso keep trying to get all pissy w/ me telling me its not worth more than 3500..... blow me.

then some dip shit told me that he could get a supercharger for less than 2k new............ suck my........

 

Sorry bro, I am not trying to start stuff, but age doesnt matter if its take care of.... you can race the shit out of a brand new car and just because its brand new does that mean its better than an older car????????? and mods dont matter I DONT THINK, if they are done properly and you dont abuse your vehicle.

why do you think 60 year old chevy's go for like 90k at auction if they are original..... not saying our trucks are collector items but if you take care of your ride then it doesnt matter how old it is.

 

To be honest. I would be surprised if you got more than 7k for it..... It's nice and all but lets be real.

10+years old
160k miles + some of those boosted miles
Been modded to your liking

Those are some hard hits on the money wagon.

 

you put that on ttora, or yotatech and it will fetch around 10k

AND one of you locals sell me ur trd intake already! since my parts source (taco/stiTron) is busy with his CAR!

 

have you not looked at NADA or KBB on a STOCK one of this year??? trade in is over 7.

I gotta say I didnt expect this from a fellow taco owner. maybe its height envy...

 

mylittletacoma those tires look effin huge on your taco, are you re-geared at all? they kinda look like huge inner tubes lol no offense but ya just sayin

 

KBB - $4,945 - stock form with an auto.

You can't compare Classics to Standard.

Just trying to give you a realistic perspective which is why I said.... I'll be surprised if you get over 7k for it....

 

Bahaha... everyone goes to the height thing.... It's hilarious.... that's all you can say.... Lets see you get sideways around 40-50 mph and see you roll that big jello on a platter.... See you take a corner going 60..... ........ My truck is worth maybe 14k with the mods I have on it..... You just have a big ego and hope that carries on the bill..... Just because you spend thousands in your truck... doesn't mean someone is gonna love your thousand dollar taste..... I have hurt my resale value by doing what I have done...... but I love it.... that is what counts.... i'm not planning on selling it.....

P.S. If I wanted to go up I would have gotten a taco.... I already done the off roading thing for far to long.... it's boring to me....

 

thats a deffinate possibility. we need to get somethin together when all of the ice and snow is gone so ben doesnt have to tow me anymore hahahaha. 2WD FOR THE FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!

 

yeah you getting stuck in the first 5 min of thr trip was no good...LOL
