Advice Needed on Tacoma Purchase

Ask what maintenance records they have for the truck. Ya its low miles but with its age stuff needs to be done. Timing belt ,water pump,tune up. etc...if nothing has been done maybe use that info to get the price down. Also ask what the invoice price is? And get as close to that as possible. It's a 15 year old truck they should be willing to negotiate. Let them know if you don't feel comfortable with the price you will just walk. These trucks hold there value and that truck is clean with low miles but for a 4x2 I think it's overpriced.

 

52k Miles? That's a hell of a find! I bought mine with 140k. By the way toyotas are the longest lasting vehicles around, Im at 150k on my 04 Tacoma with no major issues

 

Extended cabs are much cheaper. Mine is a V6 5speed 4WD and bought it with a little over 100k miles with $9000. I could've negotiated too but the seller was already being weird.

 

Not thread jacking, do you run a flag too?

 

I love my access cab, or extra cab, love having a fullsize cab and works great on the trails. The tiny seats are tight but they work when needed, I shove buddies back there

 

I guess you're in college or high school because I would never shove anyone over 20 back there lol.

 

Ya I have an American Flag that I run for TW meets, holidays, and offroading. It was 3x5 but now its more like 3x2

 

Yeah. Several in the south jersey area in that price range. Good luck man. Hold out for a good deal.

 

College
Although I have a few friends in my 20s who hop back there

Sweet haha. I run a 3x5 flag too, how did you go about mounting yours?

 

Made a custom mount and shiz, I'll pm you

 

Beat you to it.

 

OP I live around the corner to the dealer let me know if you want me to take a look. I work from home so I can go on my lunch break....

 

@nikramos92 is it a trd? I don't think it is?

 

That would be extremely helpful @opteron!

 

I wouldn't buy it with that high of an interest rate. And with it being 2wd, I wouldnt waste my money.

 

No, I don't believe it's a TRD @FirstGen Jer.

 

It's a PreRunner so I assume it's a TRD OffRoad.

 

He said he could get it to 5.99%. And I plan to put $4000 down. So $12k loan. And I plan to pay it off fully in two years. So my true cost will be about $1000 over.
