Iowa Tacomas (Idiots.Out.Wandering.Around)

Kinda hard to sell it then isn’t it?

Guess you better hit up the Craigslist missed connections section.

 

The clock was worthless on first gens. The spot was so bad it didn’t even bother me mine had died cuz I couldn’t see it anyway.

 

still confused here!

1st i asked what did he get for the Neon
you said i would get $500

and me getting $500 for @Joe_from_iowa Neon just did not make much sense at the time

ps. still recovering from the ill of the past week, conjested and stuffiness i don't think clearly

 

i have not ever had problem with my clock, can see it nicely without moving head or anything
i dunno wut the fuss is all about out there

They gave me $500 for the Neon and I was happy to get it. It's been nickle and diming us for the last couple of years. The power steering pulley shattered last week so I limped it in as is. It's a real shit box and it only had 143,000 miles on it. My daughter is loving the Corolla though, since she's been driving the Neon for about 10 years. Not to bag on the Neon as it was a good car over the years. It took me on a lot of adventures.

 

Lmfao see?
$500 is the going price for shit boxes @GQ7227

 

is that what current salvage junk value is these days

i thought it was LESS, like MUCH less

 

I’m still waiting for @GQ7227 review of the 2020 Tacoma. Starting to think he’s not gonna do it and is just leading us on and playing with our feelings.

 

did the heater work well still?
i cannot say the Corolla has power steering issues, but damned that heater cooks and bakes like the AZ sun

it may have a bad wheel bearing, not sure
major rust perforations in various sections including a very dangerous one
132k(ish) miles of hardcore sloppy winter city stop and go driving took its nasty mid west toll

and it HAS never had a clock in it lol

 

If you sell it for scrap yeah it’s less. If you trade it in to the dealer it’s just shuffling numbers. They can give you $500 trade and not discount the vehicle as much. Or they could give you $5 trade and discount the vehicle an additional $495. It’s just a shell game.

the bottom line is all the same.

 

do you ever take your '01 Tacoma TRD for adventures into the Capital city?

 

Supra news on Thursday. Already preparing myself to be let down

would it be better to test drive a slightly used one that has been broken in and test driven miles are a non-issue?
would hate to rack up the mileage and see what it can do on a nearly new truck

 

Just drive the new one...

 

I just wish it wasn't so damn expensive. Patiently waiting to watch the used market for them.

 

don't they balk at you wanting to drive it more than a mile or two?
