    Anthony, I feel ya. But on the other hand, the newer tacomas are more comfortable inside.

    Gotcha, thanks Ken. Not to my knowledge....I think TW members just meet up to help wrench on their trucks, drink beer, and wheel together. It's more than likely me using the wrong termanology

    A guy from down south drove up and bought it off me cash for $12,700
    It had like 117,000 on it if I recall correctly.
    That guy got a really good deal though. I had 15x8 Mickey Thompson Classics on it witha 15" Spare, the timing belt & water pump had recently been replaced, the valves were adjusted, newer clutch, Billy 5100's installed up front 2 weeks before I sold it, and some other things...

    Yeah, the passenger side had a dent but it wasn't super bad. I just didn't want to spend $250(my insurance deductable) to get it fixed.

    You would have had a super good truck Timmy. I'm glad you found what you were looking for though.

    The guy who bought mine had a really hard life and my truck brought him happiness....Even though it was painful to let it go(and it really was), it made me feel good inside to let it go to him. Best of luck to him.

    Timmy seems to know a bunch about 1st Gens. I know some things myself(more than some, less than others) and the guys on are Extremely helpful.

    It was a couple grand higher but, I had to sell it quickly so the truck I have now didn't move from underneither me. That and I had it for sale for a while at the higher price(which it was well worth) and had many calls but nobody serious. The guy who bought mine told me on the phone the first time we talked he'd be up in a few days to buy it for sure. Sure enough, he did.

    Thanks Theo. I was just curious about the "meets". Hey, if you guys need a place to do some work or need tools, let me know, I will be happy to help out. Need a tiny bit of notice so the wife doesn't go ballistic:)
    Seriously, happy to help out.

    Hey, my drivers side mirror wobbles a bit(it has some play)...the glass doesn't move, the plastic piece that houses the glass has the wiggle to it. Anyone have a wrench that will tighten that up?

    There is a bottom screw that looks like a large Torx... will that take out the play?
