100k+ tacomas

the salesman is going to call me tomorrow. anyone have any advice or input?

 

no one has any input? i need advice from the TW crew

 

yeah tocomas are always listed way way above kelly blue book for some reason.. just go on craigslist and look at the prices and then compare them to kbb. but that seems like a great deal on that truck even if you get it for 9k.. i'm sure they will not change the timing belt for you if you request it. Trust me if that truck gets detailed and goes on their lot it will be gone really fast.

 

what did you pay for yours? and thats what im worried about. it might be gone pretty quick. the only problem is its like 6 hours away. so i have to figure out as much as i can about it before i make the drive

 

they were asking for $9500 for mine, but it was from a private seller and i was able to get the price down to around 8k because I had cash on hand but mine had 125k miles when i bought it and not 95k like the one you are looking at. But I had to search for months and months for a good deal to come up... it's really hard to find a well taken care of tacoma sr5 4X4

 

for sure man. its soooo hard to find a clean one. especially ones that fit my needs. i would love the trd package but at some point im just too picky. hopefully it works out with this truck. there just are not many 1st gen tacos for sale. alot of them got crushed.

 

well good luck. let us know how it goes and if you end up buying.

 

ok guys i have a new truck im looking at. i called on it a while back and now they just slashed the price quite a bit. its a 2000 tacoma green trd 4x4 manual ext cab with towing package and has 135k miles. the price is now at 7900. what do you guys think about this one?

 

bumpage

 

i say go for it. those tires are $225 each.

 

I think that sounds like a decent price it has fairly low miles and its a TRD and I personally love the green. Make sure you check it out well because he had to slash the price for some reason. But sounds good to me!

 

they slashed the price because the truck has been on the lot for over 60 days. they were going to send it to auction on monday so they slashed the price. i also got to talk to the previous owner. nice guy and said the truck was babied. timing belt and water pump was replaced 10k miles ago. what do you guys think of the price?

 

good deal

 

i got the truck! sitting in my driveway right now. got it for a steal and it is in REALLY good condition. i finally have a taco

 

you gotta put some pics up soon so we can see what you ended up with. congrats by the way

 

Congrats cant wait to see it!!

 

oh nice.. which one did you end up getting after all?
