    Hi all. I ended up inheriting my step father's 2001 Taco, regular cab. He is 89 now and can't drive anymore and donated the truck to me. Only has 62k on the clock. The truck was maintained as far as the power train and regular maintenance items are concerned but it was never washed or vacuumed. There was some rust on tailgate and bed that he ended up sanding out and spraying over with rustoleum. It's in otherwise solid shape with the obligatory scratches and dings and small dents here and there, so it looks like a truck. I really know nothing about these trucks and have never owned a Toyota (always have owned American stuff) but I hear good things about their reliability. It will primarily serve my family as a 4th vehicle, winter snow vehicle for us. Already gave it a wash and now must work on removing 15 years of dirt and dust from the interior.20160909_155636.jpg
