Needing advice on buying my first Tacoma

That's definitely a bit high. I paid $16.5k for my 2009 4x4 SR5 w/115k two years ago. And it was a one owner vehicle, and I live in SoCal.

Avoid 05-06 and 12's.

 

Also in Nashville, that sounds way too high. I was out the door in a 2012 TRD Sport with 45k miles at that price.

 

yeahhh, i say fuck em dude, not worth it for that price and especially if they wont let it go for around 15. its a first year second gen, there's plenty more out there for way better prices with lower miles.

 

After market wheels and tires should lower the price. It did when the dealer bought it.

 

Where did you buy yours at?

 

I paid $15,500 for my 07 TRD Sport AC PreRunner with 99k miles about 4 months ago.

 

Tires, wheels, any afternarket accessories do not change over all vehicle value.

 

Side note-I love that our trucks keep value so well my wife’s 2014 Chevy isn’t even worth that lol

 

You should be able to find a similar prerunner for cheaper even at a dealership. Seems a bit high.

 

Whats the concern for looking at 2012's? There is another Tacoma that I am looking at that is a 2012.

 

2012+ is when Toyota added air injection valves/pump for emissions. Valves and pump failure more prevalent to 2012's as the pump only ran during start up unlike 13+ where it ran start up and shut down.

Read this and this.

 

How about this one fellas?

It doesn't really matter if you spend more than its worth, If you stick around here you could possibly end up filing chapter 11 bankruptcy after all the mods you think you needed.

 

Music City Autoplex. Avoid.
