*SOLD* FS: 2008 TRD Sport DblCab - 4WD - 6-SPD - 133k miles - Houston, Texas

Hi all. I"m selling my 2008 Tacoma. I am the second owner and purchased it in 2011 with 70,000 miles on it from CarMax. Minor *stuff* added and modified - but nothing major.

I attached a brief write-up I made for local Craigslist and another guy I knew that was interested...

Clear title. Asking $14,000.


2008 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport – 4.0L V6, 6 speed manual transmission. ~133,000 miles

 FJ Cruiser aluminum wheels (5 wheels in total)

 BF Goodrich All Terrain tires 265/70 R17 (5) About 20,000 miles on this set of tires – so maybe 50%

worn.

 In 2012 or so I traded the my hood with the “scoop” to another silver Tacoma owner with a non-TRD

Sport truck – so that is why there is no hood scoop. It was fake and silly.

 Small dent in the rear bumper. I have been rear-ended at low speeds several times – unfortunately the

last one I did NOT have the receiver hitch in place so they hit and dented the bumper. This is the only

accident the truck has been in.

 In the last 18 months the following have been replaced or repaired:

o Front windshield (Safelite)

o Front strut cartridges (OEM Bilstein HD)

o Rear shock absorbers (OEM Bilstein HD)

o Front wheel bearings (both sides)

o Front brake rotors and pads

o Rear leaf springs. The original 3 leaf springs were replaced by Toyota in 2014 under a recall

with the “new” 4 leaf springs The new springs produced the same harsh ride the originals did.

I replaced them custom replacements made by Alcan Spring (www.alcanspring.com) that

provide a much improve ride without the constant bottoming out experienced with the

originals

o Toyota T-SB-0326-08 addresses an oil leak from the timing chain cover. The repair procdure in

this bulletin is straightforward but labor intensive (about $2500 at Toyota). I performed this

work myself. In addition to fixing the oil leak, the following parts were replaced with OEM new

in the process

 Water pump

 Upper and lower radiator hose

 Front crankshaft main oil seal

 Spark plugs (OEM Denso’s)

 Radiator was flushed and replaced with new coolant

 Serpentine drive belt


 Stereo

o Alpine iLX-700 with WIRELESS Apple CarPlay

o 2 amps, 10 inch subwoofer, speakers in front and rear doors

 Hellwig rear antisway bar

 OEM 110V AC plug in the bed of the truck. I added a 110V outlet to the interior of the truck that pulls

from the same OEM inverter

 OEM roof rack (cross bars)

 Console Vault. Steel, lockable console box that is hidden under the factory arm rest. Keep your

smaller valuables (or handguns) safe from smash and grab breakins.


 Truck bed - rubber bed mat, extra tie-downs installed and LED lights for helping see when

loading/unloading at night

 2 inch receiver hitch and 7 pin trailer wiring connection

 Keys and Fobs

o Original GRAY valet key

o 3 Toyota BLACK keys (masters) to be used in programming keys and fobs

o 1 eBay key (programmed and works)

o 5 keyless entry fobs. I believe all are currently cleared out – due to an ex-wife issue years ago

and I don’t like carrying large keychains in my pocket) but I can provide instruction to program

them back in or may do it prior to sale for the buyer


 Minor extras and small parts – Mobil1 oil filters, cabin air filters, headlight bulbs and other

miscellaneous items.

 

Looks clean, what happened to the scooped hood?

 

I commented on that in the PDF that I attached. I never liked it - fake seemed silly to me. I traded a local non- scooped silver Taco (silver Taco's aren't hard to find) owner that liked the scoop.

 

Wow. This is really clean. Very tempting.....

 

Nice truck! Would you be interested in selling the roof rack by chance?

 

Sorry - just saw this. Truck has been sold.
