What did you pay for your 1st gen?

2000 single cab, 180k miles, 4x4, 3RZ, 5 spd. Solid mechanical condition, beat up on the outside, needed new tires. Frame isn't rusted through (yet).

$2300 in Aug 2018.

 

I paid $9,500 for my 98 Tacoma 4x4 ext cab SR5 back in 2004

 

2001 Dlcb 4wd, 3.4, 115,000 Miles
Old man just would feed cows with it. He only put 18,000 miles on it in 10 years.

No rust all texas truck, paid $9800. Inside and outside clean, except for the carwash tearing up my drivers side door.

 

2001

 

If I recall correctly, bought my 99 TRDOR Xtra Cab for $21K off the lot and sold it 9 years later for $12K.

 

Bought last year (Sept 2018) for $8500 in San Diego

Fully stock 2003 TRD 4x4 double cab Limited, 115k. Full maintenance records from Toyota till the day I bought.

 

98 PreRunner V6 Xtra Cab

'01 TRD ExtraCab 2.7L Prerunner $15,000 in 2004 with 30K, today I am at 297K

 

This Makes me feel like I over payed

 

In 2004, I bought 2004 Tacoma xtracab 2.4L SR5, 5-speed
$18,000/3 years at 0% interest.

In 2018, I bought 2001 Tacoma SRunner with 122,000 miles for $5500. Not pretty: filthy and dinged up being used as a farm truck hauling hay and trailers???), but in amazing shape. Great price, owner didn't even know what an SRunner was. Cleaned up beautifully, removed offroad tires (???), installed street tires, replaced beat up rear bumper, ..., and I love it, much better than the Tacoma I bought new (not as clean but MUCH faster, very solid). I fixed everything that was not working (except the drivers window and I have the motor for that), because I have a peculiar 'everything has to work' obsession, and it is now fully functioning and super clean, needing paint.

 

$2600 / 76000 miles on it

 

1996 4x4, with 211,000 miles for $1200 but the check engine was light on. Had a mid fire in cylinder 2 and bad O2 censor bank one. Bought some basic tools , parts for tune up and a new censor, all said and done $1795 .

 

2004 prerunner 3.4l auto 117k miles when I got it. $4000 (technically $3000 I still owe my buddy $1000) good thing he’s cool as fuck and preferred I just brought beer instead of cash when we kick it!!
I did have to replace the timing belt, water pump, radiator (I damaged when replacing the t-belt) and an o2 sensor. Plus that bitch needed new rubber!!

 

Bought a one-owner 98 v6 4x4 SR5 ext cab Florida taco a year ago with 206k miles on the body and 30k on the new engine for $5,500 and only needed tires. I like to think I got a good deal on it. Only thing now is that the 3rd gens are calling my name.

 

'02 Extended cab, 4x4, with 211,000 miles. Bought 4 years ago for $5500. Since then, have factory installed frame, and replaced springs, struts, etc. while it was at Toyota. The Toyota white paint is faded, but at the now, 312,000, it still runs fantastic. Of course, I keep up the maintenance . Love my Taco!

 

'98 base 4x4, 4cyl, 5spd with AC and cold weather package. It was the truck in the ad in the morning paper. Bought it new 21 years ago to the week, just under $15k

 

Bought my black 2004 TRD Offroad Prerunner in July 2008 with 32,000 miles, all stock and in immaculate condition for $18k. The worst problem I’ve had so far was a CEL from the air/fuel ratio sensor heater, not bad I say!

 

2002 1 owner 331k with every record. Needs clutch $650

 

Bought my 02 4x4 xtra cab with 160,000 mi on it 5 years ago for $6600 in SoCal fully stock. Only one minor cigarette hole in drivers seat with no rust anywhere.

 

Too much apparently













Oh well I love it
