2008 Tacoma 190k miles for $13k...good deal?

yuh

Not a dan of carfax. I work at a cat dealership and see the other side of carfaxes. Cheaper to go to the dmv and get there report.

 

Uh oh.. that doesn't sound good lol.. whats on the other side?

 

Only thing that they find is what dealership post and insurance companies. Saw some report clean title but actually had a salvage title from another state. Or major repair done that was never reported. I did a carfax on my vin for a 93 pickup came up clean, 2nd engine 3 accident never showed up. My rear frame is destroyed behind my springs. First engine went under warranty. Which i still think it was my fault bought the truck 3 days latter got orders to somalia, sat in storage for 2 yrs before i saw it again. Oil leaked out everywhere when i stated it up.riverside toyota treated my extreamly well at that time. But still my dd.

 

Hmmm.. very interesting.. i had a feeling it might be like that. A while back my sister was shopping for an avalon. Came back with clean carfax, but turned out the car had serious water damage..

Nice looking truck! How many miles on the body?

 

Body about 350k engine 349k. Truck had around 600 miles when the engine went

 

That's impressive! Did the '93 yr model come with the 3.4 v6?

 

3.0 its really slow recently whatever i hit a hill watch the speed drop.

 

Driving 60 miles to test it out just got word its done will go there monday morning. Looking forward to it. 46 yes old n i feel like im 6 just looking at the present under the tree, n being told cant touch this.

 

Pulling the trigger. Got scarex at first pulled the oil filler n it was full of white oily less. Thought it blew a head gajet, but all the tacoma we locked at had it.

 

Dealer did not like my test drive but made it back home for my dr appointment google was wrong its 94 miles to the dealership.

 

Forget pictures

 

One thing that i dont like about it is the cheesy skid plates under the front. Look like it will shatter with the first rock encounter .

 

Is it normal for the Skid Plate to stick out? OR do they usually tuck it up underneath?

 

Not sure but i dont like the look of it not how strong it looks.

 

that skid plate is mostly for show.the factory skid plate should still be on the truck underneath it.

 

Took the truck through a friends plowed field in 4hi acts like it has traction control. Does the 08 tacoma have traction control and if so where is the switch to turn it off. And who in there right mind would put steet tires on a tacoma. Also wish i can lock the rear diff in 4hi or 2wd if needed.
