Opinions on this 200K+ Taco?

Hey guys,

Found this taco for sale. It's got 206k, is my dream color, has topper + racks, big tires, pretty much everything I want to do to mine if I buy one more stock. Only caveat- it has 206K miles on it, and it's 18K...

Thoughts? I think the price is definitely too high, it's been up for about 3 weeks.

Thanks in advance!

 

Looks rusty and not very clean. Seats look gross and seem to have a burn hole in one of them. Rats nest of wires under the cap. I would run far away from that truck.

 

I'd stay away from that. If you have the opportunity/time, take a flight down to texas or a southern state and buy a tacoma there.

 

I wonder what the suspension is. I'm surprised the price is that high.

 

just think for 10k ish more you can get a new truck

 

No!

 

No way would I buy that Tacoma for 18k.

 

I'd say, since you aren't local, try to get a local TW Member (or local mechanic) to check it out. Maybe message in the regional thread. Also if it was in good condition and priced to sell it wouldn't sit very long. Definitely don't buy that before driving and having it looked at.
Good luck

 

It's a short bed. Offer him $10,000 and sell it for $15,000

 

Ask them for pictures of the undercarriage. Either way thats alot for a 2013 in CO with that many miles. Good luck but don't settle. You will eventually find what you want

 

If you're really interested, check it out and see if you can get the price down. I've gone to see trucks in "excellent" condition only to smell cig smoke throughout the cabin. You can see that stuff. Good luck in finding your truck.

 

Offer $7k

 

Its been sitting on the lot for 3 weeks for a reason !

Look at the tow package on the back and the exhaust pipe.. rusted. I’d bet if you crawled under it, it’d look pretty damn bad.

Run. Fast.
