    Buying a Tacoma in the next month!
    Hey TW!

    After been marveling over these trucks for years - I finally am in a position to purchase one! I have been searching for the last few weeks and have finally joined this lovely community after much lurking. Hoping to be behind the wheel of one extremely soon!

    I have also recently found a used 2015 tacoma I absolutely love but the carfax is saying it has had "damage" and the damage description says "door glass adjusted" and being pretty new to buying cars or trucks lately, this makes me a bit wary. Does anyone have any suggestions on something like this? Should I stay away or could have this been a broken window from someone smashing it.

    Excited to join the taco fam

    Welcome!
    I would ask the seller. If it’s just a broken window no problem imo. You should focus on maintenace records.

    had a shopping cart hit my truck or something like that. dent fixed and some paint done i think. comes up on Carfax.

    probably someone tried breaking in or something. take it for test drive. take it to CarMax for trade in. let them do checkup on it (take it to a trusted mechanic to look at it).
