KonasFirstTaco!

Hello, fellow forum folks! I'm Kona, I'm in the market for my first truck. It MUST be a Tacoma. An older one, like first generation kind of old. It will be my only vehicle, used for in-city short trips taking stuff here and there. Contenders in my price range on CL are listed below -- Can you help me decide which are worth considering and what I should look for/avoid?

My priorities are (a) start when I need it to and be reliable; (b) one owner cars always; (c) can get out of the way of other traffic (pickup). Not towing anything. Shorter is better when it comes to cabs. Interior wear not a concern, nor is minor body damage.

thank you, thank you and thank you again!
