Would You Buy This Used Pro?

It's strange that someone would sell his Taco Pro for a VW.
Does anyone know if this is TW truck?

 

Non-starter it’s an automatic.

 

Agree! Way too much for a black truck...let alone a USED black truck.

 

Not a BAD price for that PRO, looks very well taken care of. And as for BLACK, just remember, BLACK TRUCKS MATTER.

 

no for 3 reasons

1. its black.. had a black car.. impossible to keep clean even on sunny days (pollen, dust, first sign of moisture will leave spots)
2. Pro's are over-rated no real upgrades over the OR unless you want overpriced leather seat covers, and different shift knob. the only plus is the suspension but 1" of lift... not worth the extra 8-12k to me..
3. its just a package add-on that you can, and probably will replace most of it anyways with mods and upgrades..

I bought my 2016 TRD DCSB OR with 20k miles for $29k, 42k for a used truck.. no thanks..

 

I will not buy black again but they keep making them , so someone is buying them and they might be hard to move because they seem to always have the lowest price .

 

I work for a Sheehy group and one our stores just got a local trade in pro!

Not sure if anyone interested but it’s a 2017 with 15k miles and they’re selling for $37k

I was tempted but I really enjoy my sunroof

 

There's no way I'd buy a fairly recent Toyota on a VW lot. Way too many questions on why that happened.

 

Some of us need a "package add-on", okay!?

 

Picturing you hanging halfway out of it, applying sunscreen while gently setting your Mai Tai down on the roof.

 

that's a very nice truck!!I had never seen the inside of a top of the line Tacoma ! very very nice!!

 

yeah...ok, build it, dont buy it... mall crawlers.... lol.

 

That is a fair price. Certified & color?

 

I'd been ponedering whether it was a repo they won at auction. Can't imagine someone trading in this truck with all the money they would've had tied up in it, and it looks like it was clearly loved.

 

If it was a repo then money dried up. This would mean maintenance was non existent and any problems were not addressed.

 

I think it would have to be a pretty specific buyer... if I'd had been shopping around for a new 2018 Off Road with both the tech and premium packages, I would have already been willing to approach 40 grand for the purchase. So I could see that type of new truck buyer being Initerested in this used truck considering the low mileage and add ons. It would've caught my eye if it were within my budget but a new Pro was out of my budget.

The VW dealership thing would give me a little pause since it's not a Toyota CPO vehicle, but I'd at least want to take it for a test drive and poke around a bit.

 

Fair point, but it could've been within the 24 month toyota care thing so you never know.

Would probably be possible to give the VIN to a Toyota dealer and verify that.

 

Dang! People paid less than 40k for new Pros? Impressive. My 18 Sport 4x4 was 35k, normally 38.5k. In CA. No way in hell are they selling a Pro here for less than 45k.
With that in mind, i think 40k better price for me. But I dont need a Pro
So funny. First thing I thought too...”smooth transmission”. Haha. More like ADHD TRANSMISSION.

 

LOTS, and I mean lots of dealers, and smaller shops even are using carfax maintenance reporting... When i bought my used Taco I was given a printout of its carfax for its 20k mile history.. was bought at my dealership, serviced once in Maine, driven to Florida, serviced there... and driven back up to Maine and serviced again, and then traded.. dealer put on new yokohama geolandar A/T's serviced it, they bought another tacoma from the same dealer. make sure they give you the carfax report if you buy used. should also include any body work, or repairs done to the vehicle by a reputable shop.. any non-reputable repairs should have some tell-tale signs if you do a thorough inspection before purchase.

 

After 3 1/2 years, and several trips to Florida pulling a boat, and Black Betty still looks just fine.
