Did I get a good Deal? (1998 Taco)

Bought this 2 weeks ago after waiting several months for it. Wondering if I got as good of a deal as I think I did.

More Info:
1998 Tacoma PreRunner TRD
Automatic 3.4L V6
45K Miles
Interior is immaculate
$7,000

 

how much did you pay for it

 

I'd say anything under 8k was a pretty good deal

 

I paid $7,000, dumb blonde forgot to add the most important part. haha

 

That seems like a good deal. Low miles, first gen, tacos are a rarity anymore. Too bad she ain't a stick or 4x4 haha

 

I refuse to drive a manual.. Haha
It'll be my daily driver and its my first vehicle so I figured the 2WD may help on gas.

 

You got a very good deal if the 45k is the original mileage . That truck looks extremely clean and well taken care of . One way it to look up market value is to go to KELLY BLUE BOOK and see for your self

 

It was a grandpas who only used it for gardening and I'm confident that the miles are original. I know about KBB but figured I'd like to hear what the Taco lovers think

 

Whats wrong with a stick? It's a dying art. I haven't had an auto (other than my work truck, but I had no say in that) ever.

 

You just wanted to flaunt your truck , and brag I know lol , yes you got a great deal and Welcome to the Tacoma family .

 

I got offered 8k for mine a few months ago and mine is the same as yours except 4x4 and non trd with 200K and some miles good find

 

I got 8200 from my insurance for my 98 taco 4x4 that was totaled

 

well just the condition and low miles factor adds another $2k to the book value in my mind so I say you scored a very nice deal there, fantastic even.

I would caution though that because of the low miles some things that go along with that are usually rusty rotors and drums so the brake pads and rotors and drum may likely all need replacing but damn you got a near new truck for a great price. I think most here are envious of you.

 

LOL. Considering I've put well over 2K into it since I've had it, I'm going to have to pass on that offer.

 

With that low of miles, even for a 2wd Taco that's giving it away haha. I would have asked 12 if it was mine. I paid 14k for my 2004 double cab with 75k original miles if that puts it in perspective.

 

Does it really matter after the fact? Jus enjoy er!
