Yo! Just picked up my first Tacoma, a 96 2wd lx. Nothing special, just a 4 cylinder 5 speed commuter. I had an 89-95 style 95 extra cab with the 22re last and I loved it. I was on the hunt for something different and came across this one. Pretty well maintained with 193k on the clock. Runs and drives pretty nice, even with the AC on! I paid $3500 for it, which I think is a fair price considering the maintenance records. Not sure if I’m going to lower it or just keep it stock. Stock is pretty hard to leave alone though!

Welcome to TW! I think you got a very good deal given the desirability of that truck - it's a manual, good shape, xtra cab, etc.

Nice find!
