how much TOYOTA can i get for 12 grand?

seriously, i want a toyota/scion.

preferably a gen2 taco.

it needs to be in good shape/low miles

just how much GOOD toyota can 12,000 get me?

 

for 12,000 you could get a 1st. Gen Extra cab Tacoma
or
a 2nd. Gen Regular Cab with SOME miles on it.

 

Well, is some more than 80,000? i need this thing to last four years... at least.

my jeep is killing me here.

 

trust me anything you get Toyota will last you until you die(no offense)

 

yeah, thats why I'm lookin at them! i need 4X4, or at least front wheel drive, and either a wagon bodytype, or a truck

 

if i were you id go with a nice 1st gen ext cab, thats my favorite looking of any 1st or 2nd gen. sometimes i even wish i had gotten a 1st gen even though i had enough money for my 09.

 

A Yaris??

 

oh just Toyota in general???

i thought you were talking about for Tacomas only

 

I agree. They're good looking and built like tanks. Might be hard pressed to find one with low miles and 4x4 for 12K. Private party sale but those to me anyways are scary. At least with a used car dealer you have a little recourse if it's a total POS.

 

i just bought a used jeep 3 days ago, because the one i had was unfixable. the dealer stuck it to me again and gave me a jeep with a new set of problems and a loan i couldnt afford (20,000)

so my bank told them they "couldn't" approve my loan. and i got out of it.

i love america first, they are SO helpful!

i want a taco. preferably 2nd gen. and i need to be able to stuff four adults in it!

and in utah 4x4 is a nessecity!

but I'm not averse to other toyota's. it all depends on cost!

 

Ah, then I have to change my endorsement of the 1st gen extended cab. My 14 year old is five foot tall and has a hard time with her legs in the back.

 

yeah, my friends are 5'5, 5'10, and 6'2.

and two of them are fat!

 

you can convert a Yaris into a 4x4 and it will seat 5.. just messin


just look around on craigslist,eBay, and autotrader your bound to find somehting there

 

Scratch the 1st gens then...you're gonna need a 2nd gen DC.

 

im 15 and 6'3" i almost break the drivers seat to get into my driving place.

but my AC is great for me.....i can even put my 60 lbs dog in the back. he has enough room to move about too

 

EEK!

actually did that with a pinto once, sold it for a few grand to.

well, my uncle did. but i got to help!

 

haha do you have any pictures of the pinto??

 

i dont care how base the double cab is, as long as its in good shape.

i own a jeep with shot brakes, my expectations are pretty low!

 

A GEN2 4x4 that will fit 4 adults around 12k? I'm not sure that is doable ...used 05s 4WD arorund here are over $15k. I have seen nice GEN1 in that price range, but those are far & few between too. The used GEN1 DCs keep their value very well. Maybe a used 4 runner? toy4life just bought a nice one with 116k.

Sorry to hear about your jeeps tho. Car trouble stinks!
