Debate buying 2006 trd vs 2011 sr5

If I were to go second gen however, id really try to get one that is 2012 and up. The redesign looks a lot better and quality is a bit better.

 

Where are you located, OP? Or at least a general estimate.

 

Also, I'm staring at cars.com, and the cheapest 4-door brand new is listed at $21,495 - that's within 500 miles of me. It's a base model, but the base price of the '15 Taco was sub-$20k. Cheaper ones than $30k can be had - but it's trading things that you may want.

There's still plenty of affordable '15 4-doors out there to be had, but they'll probably only be around for another few months!

 

Southern California. I have looked for a truck from Anaheim, CA to Bakersfield, CA. I am willing to drive.

 

My goodness gracious, the west coast is somehow devoid of 2015 Tacomas - they're all out east apparently.

Here's the search I did:

However, you're absolutely right - you just don't have nearly as many Tacos as the east coast has.

 

I bought a 2015 double cab sr5 prerunner with 5 miles, it was listed at 29,500 ended up getting them down to 26,750. They took 2 grand off because I told them I wanted MGM but all they had was SSM.

 

2 words bro:

Honeycomb Grille

 

Definitely, very expensive!

 

So I decided to buy the 2011 Toyota Tacoma SR5, they made me a deal I could not pass on. Thanks for helping on the decision. I am glad to be part of the Tacoma family, time to start modding.

 

Congrats, brotherman!

This site will make you spend money!

 

thanks! I am definitely starting to look at new wheels and a lift kit.

Any recommendations?

 

Post some pics of that new rig of yours. I have a '06 and still going strong.

 

Here it is. Needs some black wheels and a lift though.

 

I'd recommend reading through here for hours and hours and hours.

Pretty much anything you can think of - someone else has already done it and posted about it within this forum.

So much knowledge - read away!
