Newbie here:: New to Toyota, what to look for?

Just wanted to say hi... Im not new to trucks or offroad but new to Toyota trucks. Im looking to get a first gen and figured you guys and gals would know what to look for when checking out a new rig...Most likely looking at getting a prerunner either 2 wheel drive or 4x4 extra cab v-6 auto but stick would be nice but here in California the traffic is, well you know. I know about the timing belt for 100K on over trucks but not sure what to look for on these imports. Any help would be appreciated.... Thanks, Ron

Good Luck....biggest thing is rust at this point. Since its an older truck, just expect to change out consumable parts when you do finally get her.

 

This ^ If you can get stick, I'd get it. Haha.

If you do get auto though, no worries: Toyota is really good with transmissions.
