    I have the stock Dunlops on there. That is definitely a factor. But many people on here have said they think those tires have performed well. I need to get somr A/Ts on though. See if it helps.

    Guys I really will not NEED 4wd. If it snows I can always stay home and if I need to get out we have an AWD Honda Pilot. plus I live in the South so we really do not get significant snow.

    On the plus side this truck has nearly new Michelin LTX M&S tires. Which I hear are an incredible tire.

    The truck looks to be in really nice condition. I would still try to get it between 14000 and 14500 but if you like it and you are happy with 15000 I say go for it.

    You are right. I am going to shoot for 14 but I'd be willing to take it for 14,500. I'm also going to ask for new Toyota floor mats. I didn't see any floor mats on the test ride and there is no way I am buying a truck from a dealership without floor mats.

    No reason to stay home with a 2wd. A couple decent snow tires on the back or in my case some Duratracs and I had no issues in our recent 12" of snow. :thumbsup:

    Well I am now the proud owner of an 05 Tacoma. I could only get them to come down to $15k. I did get a brand new set of all weather floor mats so I'm happy about that.

    Truck drives great and looks to have been well taken care of. I'll probably drive it a year and put 30k miles on it and sell it anyways. Haha
