I just Bought a 2002 Tacoma! :) Did i pay too much?

Congrats...enjoy it.
Now for the serious shit, how much cash do you have set aside for mods?

 

THIS

 

Yeah you paid too mich

 

no sales tax in oregon

 

That was a good find / price!!

 

First of all...gotta love when somebody starts doing the research about vehicle pricing AFTER they purchase it

Second...the customer ALWAYS decides how much the item is worth. So whether you paid more or less than other people in similar transactions, it is you who ultimately decide if you are at peace.

Having said that...I think you got a really great deal with that truck.

 

Yeah 1200$ great, but then it might as well be a 2wd no one wants to off road there brand new paint job

 

That's worth it to drive fly up drive down and sell it, shit in Louisiana I see our trucks go for 3-5k with low miles no rust, mostly cause those good ole boys want them Diesels

 

I guess that depends on where/how you wheel. If you beat the crap out of your truck, then a new paint job is not a good idea.

 

You don't have to beat your truck to fuck your new paint, wheel spacers tires throw rocks on your cab, tight trail scratches down the side of the truck, i did get caught on the side of a hill one time, slid into a fence so I got leverage to position myself down the hill and that left a pretty good dent, poped right out though

 

What's your opinion on the "paint protection film" products like the 3M stuff? Seems like a good idea (in theory) to protect against scratches from brush and small rocks.

 

spend another ~$2-3k and buy the parts to convert to 4wd

 

I paid $14,500 for my 2004 DC 4x4 with locker. Bone stock and a couple of steps over 100k miles. Very happy with my purchase.

 

Pretty solid price. I bought mine thats a 2.7L Prerunner for 8.5k and 180k on the clock.

 

You got a good deal. When I got my 02 dbl cab v6 with 169,000 I paid 10k for mine and yours looks in better shape then mine. Good job man, enjoy the truck

Here everyone and their momma wants a full-size. The women here get pretty fat and not that few extra pounds level of cuteness, but feedlot fat. Thus the need for a full-size
