    Howdy, I am new to Tacoma's. (I have a 4runner) I am going to be buying a Tacoma from my mother in law. This is something that NADA, Kelly and the like do not properly account for. The truck in question is a 1996 Toyota Tacoma V6 Xtracab 2WD with an ARE Camper Shell.

    That in itself is nothing too unique except that this truck only has 31K. It was always garaged and looks like it just came off the showroom. My father in law babied this thing.

    What do you think I should pay my mother in law for the truck. I want to be sure I am paying enough for the truck, but not over pay too much.

    remember that it's still a 21 year old truck. it has some value but not like a 10-13 year old one.

    you could go a little over NADA. OR, since she's family, give you a discount :D

    Run very far away from this deal !!

    If you need a 2wd Tacoma find one else where.

    If your Mother in law is just a little like mine was No matter if you pay $ 50,000.00 you will hear how you robbed Her till she dies .

    Get called to haul things no matter your schedule it needs to be now .
