    what do you think of it having 24k miles for its age, is that a lot of miles and should it be a concern if there is a very good record of it getting maintenance?

    Average distance driven per year is 15K, so depending on when the truck was purchased, the 24K doesn't seem high. Ask the dealership for maintenance records, since the truck is still within the 3 year / 36,000 mile warranty.

    I have a 1991 Truck which is RWD and 2.7l engine.
    It runs well, but can hardly get out of its own way.
    I cannot imagine how much of a dog the 4 cylinder would be in the much larger and heavier Tacoma.

    3rd gen access 2wd 2.7L drives like a small sedan. The power is acceptable.

    all good man, not needing a truck for the speed, as long as it gets me to work and back & occasionally use it for picking some things up im all good. Really wanting reliability and durability with this truck.

    that’s good know, I’m gonna test drive it first to see if it’s something that will bother me but I think I’ll be fine with it’s power.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Kev, Kev get off the couch. Want pics of it in your parking spot. Edit: then we’ll spend the rest of your money.

    Price seems too good to be true, Those trucks are going for closer to 30k after TTL. Check the carfax to see if it was wrecked.

    I added seat jackers to the front (1.25-1.5 inch lift) and about .5-.75 inch to the rear. Made them much more comfortable and was a pretty quick and cheap option.

    I had some for a couple of days, it made it miserable vs. just slightly uncomfortable, no amount of in/out/up/down w/ the seat or steering wheel made it work for me. I think i was just trying to replicate the previous trucks seating position and it just wouldn't do it. I have heard many others happy with them so I can only speak on my experience.
