    Hey guys,

    Looking to sell the Taco. Not sure what I'll end up with next, maybe an F-150 Ecoboost (I design turbo performance parts for a living and still want a truck...win/win) or maybe go the other way and get another sports car. Who knows. Not sure I can live without a truck at this point.

    Anywho, I bought her in October of 2014 and have loved owning her. I've made some nice upgrades, I think, and it's in a great spot for a new owner. I work at a performance shop so she's on the lift for work whenever I need to and I fix things as they need it.

    $17,500 for Tacoma World Member

    2008 DCSB - Silver on Gray
    100,XXX miles
    3" OME Suspension - 885/Dakar (<10,000 miles)
    Light Racing UCA
    285/70/17 Toyo Open Country AT3 Tires (<1,000 miles)
    Entune Nav Unit with GPS/Bluetooth Calling, etc
    OEM TRD Pro Headlight Housing with Upgraded Bulbs/Harness (Just Installed)
    Weathertech Digital Floor Mats
    New Lower Control Arms after the lower balljoints busted

    UPDATE:

    Forgot to mention that it also has Tow Package. I also have some N-Fab side steps for additional cost. Also have KB Voodoo Crossbars for additional cost. 2 x Regular Cross Bars and 1 x XSXR Bar.

    Truck is solid. Only two things that I'd fix as of right now. I have a slight vibration when you take off from a stop. I had thought it was a mud tire out of balance but when I replaced them a couple of weeks ago it was still there. Now I believe it is rear pinion angle causing a u-joint to hop around a bit. Next is the fuel gauge. It stops a little under 1/4 tank. I just keep track of miles. I fill up when I hit 300 miles on a tank. I assume I'd need to drop the tank and swap in a new fuel level arm, maybe just clean it up a bit if it's sticking. It's also time to flush the transmission. But that's really it.

    I need to take some better pictures but it's been raining and the leaves have been falling, etc. Need to get her cleaned up for the big show, as they say. She's got some 'pinstripes'. She's got a ding or two on the tailgate. Got a tear on the side of the driver's seat. Never been wrecked but the front/rear bumpers have seen a little bit of contact. Just scratches, really. The bed is well used and scratched up but then again, it's a truck bed.

    I'm happy to answer any and all questions you have openly and honestly. If you'd like to see a certain picture of something, just let me know, not a big deal.

    Buying a used car/truck can be a hassle. I've done it a ton at this point so I just try to be as open and honest as possible.

    I don't need to sell the truck, so no lowballs or whatever.

    God Bless and Happy New Year!
