6' 5"?

hey guys. I've been looking at picking up a 2003

$151 4-door QAA is Compatible with 2016-2020 Toyota Tacoma 6 Piece Stainless Body Molding Insert Trim Kit, 1.5" Width MI16172

4-door tacoma. I'm 6'5" and have never driven a 1st gen, do you think there will be any issues with leg room or head space?

Thanks.

 

I’m 6’5” and I love my double cab. I am plenty comfortable, it’s no open floor plan feeling but I have had no spatial complaints on long trips.

 

I see this come up quite a bit. I bet if you search for "tall guy" or something, you'll see some posts on it.

It really just depends. Some tall guys post that they're totally comfortable, others that are shorter don't like it. I bet you there's a car dealership around that has one. Even if they're asking a redonk price, or it's a pile of crap with a rusty frame, you can still sit in it and see if it's worth pursuing getting one for yourself.

We're a pretty nice bunch of folks here, too. I bet if there's a member that's close by, a 6-pack will get you into the driver seat for a few minutes...

 

Thanks this is very helpful.

 

Thanks, ill definitely check in my area.

 

Is $13,500 a fair price for a 2001 with 90k miles on it? Do these first gen motors go and go?

 

What are the specs? 4x4, Prerunner, 5lug, v6, 4cyl, TRD, etc?

 

That is some pretty low milage for 01'. I mean if it's spec'd right and super clean one-owner type of deal sure. Is it a double cab? They go for a premium above and beyond the clean low milage first gen tax lol. So basically if it's 4x4, double cab, trd with a locker and super clean... yeah that price is fair.

 

My 04 TRD 4x4 wont die, almost half-a-million on its original drivetrain. Dont even have to pop the hood between oil changes. I'm 6'1" 270lbs and I love both of my 1st gens.

 

Its a sr5 trd offroad, v6 4x4

 

Dang thats wild! Thanks for the post

 

Its a 1 owner, double cab

 

You planning on getting the 1st gen in addition to the 3rd gen or in replacement of?

 

For a double cab TRD 4x4 with that low mileage, yeah I'd say that's a real good price. Out here in CA that'd probably list for closer to $16k or more

 

I actually recently sold my pro to my dad, I have a 2020 camry and have been on the fence of getting another pro or keeping the camry and getting a 1st gen that I can take on camping trips and stuff

 

yeah exactly. I'd have no issues snagging that, other than you can only get it with a damn auto...

 

You can never have too many 4x4 yotas. Currently I have 7.

 

Yup, reason why I settled on an access cab lol. I found mine in 2016 with 24k miles on it, got 90k on it now

 

Yeah in that case man, sounds like just what you're looking for.

 

True that, I can't break away from toyota and the peace of mind their quality gives you
