$17500 for 2013 Tacoma?

You have a good point Casper. That's without a dought, the best advice I have heard.

 

Just kinda makes sense to me. I try and get good deals but not a great haggler. I just kinda developed that game plan for myself when purchasing a vehicle. Bottom line for me is, Is this the vehicle I want and am I cmfortable with the payment? Maybe not everybody's idea of finding a deal but it works. Glad I could help a little

 

This sounds like a decent truck...at a fair price. You like it, I believe. If I we're you, I'd buy it!

 

Well, I'm a Tacoma man now!; Thanks guy for you help. Love the truck;;

 

First time I ever used that one

 

Congratulations!!! and welcome to TW.

Now all we need are some pics!!

 

The best advice for anyone on how to look at a vehicle purchase.

 

Just to make sure… The only one on that website I see is a pre-runner. I know you are new but just verifying that you know it is only 2 Wheel Drive

 

Here it is. 4X4

Which is what 90% of Tacoma owners ever use.

 

I've seen 1st gens go for nearly that much.

But the question should be 1) can you afford it? and 2) how badly do you want it?

If you keep holding out on buying a truck because you think there will be one next week for $500 less, or that you *maybe* could get a better deal, then you'll never buy a truck. There will *always* be someone who "got a better deal" than you did.

I know for a fact people have paid less their their trucks than what I paid for mine. Do I regret paying what I did? No.

 

Pretty sure OP already made up his mind before posting. Confirmation bias. Filtered out any negative feedback.

 

Post #25 he bought the truck it appears

 

the ad says 4WD - but that pictured truck is not a 4x4 I don’t think

 

Welcome in, glad the truck was right for you. Stick around, anything that goes wrong with that truck, it's already been talked about on here somewhere. TONS of information in here.

 

Look at the pictures, you can clearly see the 4WD switch on the dash.

 

Congratulations on your new Tacoma. Looking at NADA or KB prices you did well. I live down the road in PC and winters are pretty harsh as your well aware on vehicles especially frames. I'll be taking my truck into your Amhert dealer this spring for frame inspection/recall. I'm done with dealer in Sandusky where I bought truck new.

My 2012 SR5 is almost identical to yours except different color, 4 cylinder 2.7L and a 5-speed manual. It's been a very reliable truck that hasn't nicked and dime me since I do the basic required maintenance. Your truck has the steel wheels I see as mine too. I'm thinking this spring I may purchase some OEM aluminum wheels to brighten it up. Welcome to the forums. IM/PM me here if I can help you locally.

 

Just do it AFTER YOUR mechanic checks it out.

 

damn the ad is down now so I’ll take your word for it - surprised I missed it
That’s a good price for 4x4 imho

 

Apologize guys, been busy. Yes, I bought it. Yes it's 4x4 and check this out , got it for $15400.00 with my trade. Old Rusty but trusty Silverado. Ask then about the two recalls on the reuck, and they said they would take of them. There calling Monday to set a time to get it done, plus a loaner car. Drove it the last few days, and I have to say, gotta get use to it. Very tight truck.im use to sloppy,lol
