Which deal is better?

I'm trying to decide between these two available Tacomas

Option A) $16,488

2006 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab PreRunner with TRD OR package. 70K miles with graphite interior.

Option B) $19,888

2008 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab PreRunner SR5. 32K miles with graphite interior.

My main concern is the fact that I don't really want a car with 70,000 miles, seems like a lot in my opinion. Which would you take?

 

sounds like you've already made up your mind. personally, id get the 08 with less miles. my 06 only has 36k and if i sold it id probably ask for 17,500.

 

I would buy the SR5. Both are Prerunners and only 2WD so you really don't need the TRD OR package. In my opinion.

 

My 06 has 107k miles... I think KKB said $13-14k

dbl cab 4x4 Sr5

 

B....for mileage, you can mod it later, possibly throw in the locker if you think you need it.

 

bbbbbb

 

Sounds quite unanimous then. But B is 125 miles from my house, where as A is only 50 miles away. Its worth the drive for a good value though.

 

i'd go with the locker over mileage. cause honestly....thats still pretty low miles for a tacoma.

 

70K is quite a bit of miles. I would go with option B.

where do you live? i got a coworker thats got a 2008 Tacoma TRD Sport 40,000 miles for like 15K. socal.. los angeles area

 

Option C. Buy a TRD Off Road and not regret buying a 2WD truck

 

I dont think either deal is exceptional without 4x4

 

X2, save up and get a 4x4, you wont regret it!

 

TRD Off road package on a 2WD truck is no different then installing a 6500lb hitch on a camry. Makes no sense

 

hahaha x2

but to answer his question B

 

Option B no doubt- it's still under the manufacturer's warranty.

 

x2

 

x2 man!

$17,000 and no warranty? Ouch! That TRD decal aint worth it.

Get a carfax!!! Thats something else to consider...

 

It makes plenty of sense..it just depends on your life style...If your not a big off road enthusiast but enjoy camping and fishing or you live in a place where mud can be an issue than I think the Locker in the OR Package is a good thing. But on the other hand, I think your LSD on your Sport is pointless too so....

 

I pick option B

In two years at 15kmiles/year driving, you have a 100k on option A. While option B will have 70k on that rig in the same two years, still 30k miles from that dreaded 100k sales price lowering phenomenon.
