    This is to find out if you have any good sources of used vehicles. I am currently searching High and Low for a GOOD truck at a GOOD price...

    Ultimately I am obviously looking for a Tacoma. One that I could use for a good start to a project truck (used for Off Roading/Camping/Beach driving not looking for a beauty queen or a commuter. More so something I can ding up and get dirty):

    • 1st or 2nd Gen
    • 4x4
    • Minimal Rust or No Rust
    • Double cab (would 100% consider Ext Cab 1G if it was the right truck)
    • Would consider 2.7 for 1G or 6 cyl for 2G
    • Manual trans preferred (but not required)
    • Relatively Low miles (<15K per year)
    • Decently equipt. (Deluxe, SR5, Off Rroad or Sport... Just don't want a flat out base model)
    • As close to or under $10K as possible...(this is the tough one)

    I have been combing through the following:
    Do you have another sources to share??

    Craigslist
    Not as good as it used to be but still deals to be found occasionally

    Offerup
    Growing in popularity & easy to use. Can also set up alerts whenever a vehicle is posted within your preferences using the phone app

    Facebook marketplace
    A bit annoying to use with filters but ever since craigslist put a listing fee for cars, facebook marketplace has been booming with car sale ads

    Sorry if it is in the wrong place. I was inquiring about places to BUY/SELL/TRADE a truck. Figured this was the right place for that since it is the 'Buy / Sell / Trade' forum.

    I used this to find the listing, then went to the dealers site to validate availability. Screenshot_20200708-201137_Chrome.jpg

    Sometimes driving through some neighborhoods you can see a for sale sign on a Tacoma, might get lucky and be a guy who doesnt use the internet and is a one owner truck, ik its not online but I always see cars for sale in peoples driveways, sometimes I drive by the same streets and notice the truck hasnt moved and wonder “are they selling that truck?”

    I found a steal just by calling up toyota dealers and seeing what they had. The one I found was waiting for a new frame and wasn’t even listed for sale on their site.
