    After 4 years of ownership, I think it's time to move on from my Tacoma. I have finally transferred to WVU and my Tacoma isn't the ideal truck to commute home on the weekends.

    I bought it from a Fitzmall dealership in Annapolis MD in Dec 2013 w/117k miles. It now has a hair over 153k.

    I've put a lot of work into it over the years, small and large. I replaced the clutch about 25k ago, replaced the entire exhaust system Y-pipe back (muffler, both cats, O2 sensors, mid pipe) last year, and re-did the entire A/C system this summer (condenser, thermal expansion valve, o-rings, drier, and PAG oil) so it blows cold.
    In addition to the big ticket items, I've done pads, rotors, filters, Redline in the trans, diff support bearing, tie rods, bushings, end links, thermostat, [IM, TB, VC and cam gaskets], etc.

    After months of having the CEL on, I finally got it turned off when I replaced the exhaust system (pesky P0420.) Brand new cats! Truck is 50 state emissions.

    Drivers rear axle seal needs to be replaced. Diff vent closed up and blew it out.
    Other, minor issues include: needs an alignment (getting that done 10/5/17 hopefully), exhaust leak (I think flanges need to be re-tightened after I put in the new exhaust), and cosmetics such as a floor mat wearing through, some paint chips, and a bit of rust on the bumper chrome trim.
    I'll be periodically working on it every weekend I'm back home and it will gradually improve in these areas.

    Everything works - PW PL cruise control AC, heat, stereo, auto locking hubs. It's got a nice Alpine stereo with an aux cord I hooked up.

    The frame was coated by Toyota around 2011-2012 and it's in fantastic condition. I wash it out regularly, visually inspect it, and occasionally tap with a hammer just for peace of mind.

    Truck is in Wash DC area (zip 20902), but I could drive it to WV if that's convenient.
    Call/text me at 301.742.2953 or message here if interested.
    $7500

    Hi there,

    I've had some decent interest in the truck, from this forum as well as other listing sources. I just wanted to update the ad with a few things (mostly pictures).
    I just got home last night and I took some better pictures today. Picture in direct sunlight with no water on the truck to possibly "doctor" the photos.
    I'm also including a bunch of pictures of the frame and underside. I know this is super important for Tacomas.

    It isn't perfect, but I'm excited to say the frame is pretty damn good. I guess my over-obsession with washing it out kinda paid off. Or maybe that was just Toyota's undercoating at work? Idk.

    Also installing about $100 of Rockauto parts today. Belts, spark plugs, exhaust gaskets, etc.

    Nice deal ... I Sold mine , identical model and year , also green TRD , I purchased for 5,500.00 , 260,000 miles, then invested 1,600 on updating parts, like 8 months later I sold it with 264,000 on odometer for 7,150.00 to get a Double Cab ( family man), the guy want it so bad the TRD automatic that even with not perfect record on carfax and paint all faded, he paid me every dime of what I spend,

    You got a very nice truck , low miles and you had take care of major updates,
